Cheney for President in 2008 !!!
You can only say so much.
I thought Cheney responded when necessary and attacked when necessary. Very well done.
It was an absolute destruction of Edwards.
Comments from this evening:
Even the best lawyer can't defend the kerry record
Edwards was nervous... forgot whose turn it was ... cheney's name .... what subject
IOTW, Edwards BOMBED against the Vice President!
YES! I think Edward's performance reinforced the image of him as being too inexperienced to be VP.
He actually came off as juvenile in many of his responses.
This was a BIG WIN for Bush-Cheney.
"I never met you until tonight"
A great line
McAuliffe spin:
"Cheney looked arrogant, looked tired, stumbled, looked upset...Both Bush and Cheney looked liked angry men...I was aghast and shocked!"
McAuliffe sounded like a man crying to keep his job. LoL!
This guy, Edwards, sounded jerked over. And talk about bad style. What a flunky.
Big victory for Bush-Cheney tonight.
One of my favorite points was when Cheney said he doesn't have to worry about what some caucus goer in Iowa is going to think of his decisions in 2008 - ZING!
Cheney showed John John who the grown-up is! He's got gravitas.
I wish they had placed Cheney's mike up higher so we didn't get the swooshy or muffled effects.
Was Edwards at the debate? There was this little kid with a beanie on in his seat, but I never saw the "distinguished" senator tonight.
That was the knockout line.
I fear what the polls might look like tomorrow. I fear for the worst. When are we (the republicans) going to go on offense and really take it to them. Seems like too much of being nice to those not worthy.
Cheney missed a great setup to cut Edwards to pieces with the question regarding Edwards' role in raising medical costs by his professional antics...
I'm bummed...
Hi All,
Please go freep the cnn poll shown on their front page: http://www.cnn.com :-)
Agree
John Kerry picked Edwards hoping he can deliver the SOUTH.
Did anyone else hear Edwards mention Vietnam? I counted one oblique reference, then two subsequent direct mentions. It started 25 mins. into the debate. Cheney absolutely rocked on nat'l. defense. Thought the questions were fair and tough on Edwards, much better than last week. Overall, Cheney won hands down.
LOL! Great Picture!

Cheney missed many opportunities to respond to the primary charges the Kerry/ Edwards campaign is leveling againsgt the Administration- esp. the "no plan to win the peace" charge
UMmm when is the right going to learn wining isn't about throwing 20 counter punches to every accusation from your opponeent. All that would of done would of made Cheney look defense. This just bugs me. All weekend there is all this howling on the Right about why Bush didn't go on offese against Kerry. NOW, people on the right rip Cheney for not playing DEFENSE! MAN, there is just NO pleasing you people.
I don't know. I'm thinking about voting against Cheney, because he voted against Head Start, Meals On Wheels, and Martin Luther King's birthday. < /eyebleedingsarcasm >
Chris Wallace is an idiot.
