Is there any way to file a FOIA to look at what Breck is drawing on that notepad??

[NYC Republican]

Come on Cheney, get your hands away from your mouth, and make a joke about Edwards having better hair!!!

[Ginifer]

Cheney is awesome tonight. He's definitely flipping the flopper!

[Peach]

Did ya'll just hear Edwards tear a paper off the pad in order to distract Cheney? Cheap lawyer trick.

[flashbunny]

he keeps bringing up 'senator kerry on thursday night' like he's saying "don't yall remember how great john kerry did then? That means he can be president?"

[daybreakcoming]

***I would ask that new signups be stopped for the week prior to the election. Trolls and newbies will overburden the system.***

Guess you were never a newbie, eh? I am finding a lot of the newbies really are offering up some good stuff. Trolls are a different matter. I remember too well how happy I was to find FR and I would ask that new membership never be closed.

[bigjoesaddle]

No, FR needs fewer frivilous posts

Yes, stop the frivilous posts!

Also, I had a Krispy Kreme donught today. They are soooo good! How do they make them so good? It looks like a regular donught, maybe a little smaller, but wow, they are good! Yep......real good.

[CurlyBill]

Edwards cannot stop mentioning John Kerry's name... I have to wonder if he says to his wife late at night, "John Kerry and I believe that we should make love tonight."

[Nowhere Man]

What is the over/under for how many more Halliburton references Edwards has left?

Dunno, but if I was drinking for real, my liver would be gone. B-) "Were not attacked my Saddam Hussein," Pretty Boy just said and brokethe rule by mentioning Kerry's name. Broke the rule, AGAIN!!! Idiot......

[alancarp]

experiance Vs greenhorns moment

Cheney leading in to expected closing remarks in this answer about similiarities.

Edwards getting flustered - any impact he might have had with this "answer" is smacked down.

[Mr. Buzzcut]

Another useless question ... Edwards brings up that we weren't attacked by Saddam ... Cheney needs to bring up Edwards "immenent threat" claims and dispel the alliance crap ...ack, is there some reason Cheney waved off the chance to respond?

[cwb]

"Edwards is doing well, to their base. It's about what appeals to their base, this evening."

---

Wrong! This is a national debate that should be appealing to the American people...and especially the undecided's. Hell, one of the reasons the Democrats can't commit to their base is because they have a fractured constituency, which is why the undecideds in this race aren't their voters...but the candidates.

[BreitbartSentMe]

haven't read the thread, too busy watching, but I had to post a couple of thoughts:

I finally realized who John Edward's voice reminds me of, the opposing lawyer in My Cousin Vinny, Their voices are "eye-dentical"

Sigfriend and Roy had it right on Father of the Pride the other night when they referred to Cheney by the nickname "Chainsaw"

[prairiebreeze]

Edwards was told to say the word "consistent" over and over and over tonight. Ad nauseum.

Prairie

[bannie]

WHAT is the rule about Ed. mentioning Kerry's name? Sometimes he may use it, and sometimes he may not?

[txradioguy]

Everyone here who believes Edwards "forgot" about not mentioning names....raise their hand.

[DeepInEnemyTerritory]

Edwards: "The best defense is a good offense."
Edwards endorses the Bush plan. LOL

[Nonstatist]

Hes spouting his talking points. Not very impressive

[jennyjenny]

Edwards didn't answer the question about what he would ad as VP. I think he is totally confused.
