Is there a "who won" poll at cnn.com?

The online polls at Fox and MSNBC pegged Edwards the winner. Crap.

My son served overseas in a support mission for Bosnia. ALL his supplies were provided by Halliburton. On time. As ordered. Best quality.

And I mean EVERYTHING the troops needed was supplied by Halliburton.

I was falling out of my chair laughing at that idiot Edwards!

He looked (and acted) like he was about 16 years old.

I wouldn't trust him to watch me dog.


CHENEY FRIGGIN ROCKS !!!!

CHENEY IN 08 !!!!

"Ifill did a great job. She gave tough questions to both candidates (unlike Jim Lehrer, who never really got tough with Kerry)."

I totally agree with that. Cheney kicked some serious bootie tonight, but he was assisted by the fact that Gwen Ifill asked Edwards just as tough questions as she asked Cheney.

Edwards looked like a wet-behind-the-ears little schoolboy who was caught throwing spitballs through the whole thing. No way did he win that debate.

Yeah...and if I heard Edwards right, he is wrong on many issues. I could've swore he said that since Bush has been president, we have added 5 million new uninsured citizens to the health care rolls, bringing the total to 45 million.

It just so happens that I have a report (somewhere) from the last year of Clinton, that claims there were 44 million at the time he left office. Considering that we've added at least 1 million illegal aliens in the last 4 years, I'd say the Bush record is very good.

"lib, the liberal-demokkkRAT mod is s-l-o-w-l-y building a socialist case for traitorous Kerry-Edwards garbage. Read between her lies. Cheney is subliminally kicking b-u-t-t."

I agree, now Edwards has been shown to be the irrelevant partner as the light has shine upon him!
Now we can concentrate on their current leader of
the pack, Kerry.
Cheney is awesome!

The DNC has been mailing out the lists. This time the GOP also sent out an email (numerous people admit to receiving it). Funny thing is that the language was very similar to the email that the DNC used.

I guess that is a smart strategy if the left complains that the GOP sent the email. Same text, same plan. If the media tries to cry "Foul" the GOP can shout "BIAS".

Internet polls are meaningless. Everyone should know this by now.

Conservatives would be better off boycotting them so they ended up 99-1 and others would realized how worthless they are.

Internet polls have no basis in reality. Boycott them. It is just a p**sing contest.

"I think Cheney came off humble, honest, and wise."

I agree...

On the otherhand, I thought Edwards came across like a freshman trying to debate an MIT college professor.

Did McAwful mention that McBride was governor of Florida.

Well, I think it's going to be a bigger blowout than some folks think, imho.

Kerry/Edwards are total losers. The November poll (the one that matters)
will bear that out. Again, imho .....

Time and time again, he just refused to dignify Edwards' stupidity with a response. He just treated Edwards like he didn't matter. That was masterful!

I thought that was excellent too. I hope the President takes note, because he allowed himself to get baited too many times by Kerry.

C-SPAN let people call in for about 15 minutes after the presentation to express views on the debate without using "Democrat" or "Republican" lines. The Edwards callers must have overwhelmed the Cheney callers better than 2-1. The Edwards callers said that their man "connected" more with the "common man" than did Cheney, who spoke in intellectual circles far beyond what the average American can understand.

Cheney beat Edwards like a red-headed step child .

Chrissy Matthews said that Edwards came with a water pistol and Cheney came to the debate with a machine gun. He also said that Cheney repeatedly unloaded his Howitzer on Edwards. But the best moment was when Matthews interviewed a spinning-out-of-control Joe Lockhart. Lockhart was panicked and Matthews wasn't buying the spin at all. Lockhart truly had that deer in the headlights/it's gonna be a long flight home form Cleveland look.

Don't sweat it. The Lefties have set up bots and so forth to vote thousands of times. Let them have their little skewed online poll victories, because even the left-wing press can't do much more than say "draw".
