Yes, I think it was very evident that stature-wise, Cheney was several notches above Edwards, who is no Joe Lieberman. I thought Cheney scored repeatedly on foreign policy. He clobbered Edwards on the Iraqis, and the Kerry position of saying he'll bring in more allies, all the while he's slandering the ones we do have.
I think Cheney was not going to attack Edwards' Senate record, as he really isn't the issue, Kerry is. But after the Halliburton, Halliburton, Halliburton stuff, he let it fly and it was beautiful. A debate version of "Go F*** Yourself!!!"
it was poetic, really.
