Dick Cheney didn't seem to think they were that harsh....but he made himself clear: "I disagree with the President on this one, but I'm not giving you a soundbite to use against us.

Yup. Branding her with the Scarlet L! Good thing Cheney didn't fall for that rope-a-dope. Even the moderator was in on it. When he asked Cheney if he had anything to add to those remarks, Cheney said NO. Edwards and the moderator looked just like two dogs who had got the gold plate grabbed from under them.
