One gets the sense that Andrew's brain favours Cheney and other portions favour Edwards.

In any event, my sympathy is with this fellow:

From the New York Post's story about the Kerry / Edwards Fundraiser:

Also on the Bush-bashing team was comedian Chevy Chase, who claimed the president is dumb as "an egg-timer" and said Edwards will make Vice President Dick Cheney look "as bright as a bundt cake" when they debate next fall.

I can't wait to see VP Cheney cut the ambulance chaser to ribbons. The Dems are making the mistake of thinking that they're smarter than the rest of us.

Please don't tell them that you should never underestimate your opposition....

...bald, dour, snarling vice-president whose most recent public pronouncement was to tell a leading Democratic senator to “go f*** yourself”.

Andrew must have missed John EFIN' Kerry's Rolling Stoned interview. He really should try to get out more and stop reading the liberal rags.

Here is Edwards about halfway thru his first debate with Cheney...

[petitfour]

I see Edwards as the young, foolish Darth Vader Skywalker character who has turned to the dark side already. Cheney is more like the wise, old good force seeker.

But the voice of Darth Vader is another thing altogether. One of the best voices in Hollywood.

Now take a look at Dick Cheney’s old congressional record. He was the sole representative from Wyoming for several years in the 1980s and his voting record was easily one of the most arch-conservative in Congress. He voted against sanctions on South Africa and Aids research. He voted against every measure to control gun sales. He also opposed a bill to let government employees donate their holidays or sick leave to other workers with an illness or family emergency. There wasn’t a defence programme he didn’t like or a tax cut he didn’t vote for.

What's not to like? He forgot to mention that Lynn Cheney is both pretty and devoutly conservative.

Sulivan has gone to the dark side since Bush has openly stated he would support FMA.

The homosexual sulivan cares about nothing but his recreational sex.

I see Chaney as John Wayne vs city slicker Edwards. I watched Edwards on TV today doing the speechifying thing and he didn't know when to stop. Kerry was watching his performance like a proud daddy. The VP debate should be quite a crowd pleaser. Chaney will talk intelligently to the audience and Edwards will perform for the jury. Let the games begin.

That remains one of the most beautiful pictures of Vader, or any movie character. The only other one that compares is Vader in the Carbonite Chamber with the orange light and gas wreathing his massive frame in ESB.

[WOSG]

yeah, but which part of his body is doing the thinking for him...

All that John-John hugging is to nail down a particular constituency?!?

Cheney, the bald, dour, snarling vice-president whose most recent public pronouncement was to tell a leading Democratic senator to “go f*** yourself”.

He's bald, true, but not dour, and he only snarls at those who need to be snarled at. And he most certainly did NOT publicly tell anyone to, ahem, go entertain himself. The comment to Leahy was a private one.

[independentmind]

This autumn, Edwards, a telegenic, bubbly lawyer who looks 40, will go up against Big Daddy Cheney, the bald, dour, snarling vice-president whose most recent public pronouncement was to tell a leading Democratic senator to “go f*** yourself”.

Why do I get the idea that Sullivan has problems with father figures? Sullivan is harming himself with this public fawning over Edwards. How many heterosexuals are comfortable reading or listening to it?

[Benrand]

he growled: “You guys want to hear this speech or not?”

I'm guessing this was said jokingly as Cheney has a great sense of humor.
