Wow.
if the debates were a four-round prize fight, the Republicans would be against the ropes, struggling to survive, midway through.
Kerry crushed Bush in the opening round, beating him with facts and truths, while solidifying his own policies to the American people.
in the second round, and the only VP debate, Edwards used his trial lawyer skills and showed why he was just that damned good at it. While Cheney often mumbled and sometimes couldn't even come up with a 30-second rebuttal, Edwards drove the points of the Democratic candidates home, explaining what they want to do and how they're going to do it, while at the same time pointing out how the Bush administration has failed the American people.
When Edwards pulled out that haliburton comment, my brain pictured him driving a sword through Cheney's chest, then pulling it out and lopping off his head. Cheney simply didn't have a prayer.
i'm feeling better and better about this election all the time. well, until the October surprise happens.

I think Edwards is a better speaker than Kerry...
maybe i like his demeanor better.
Cheney is a moron... and like Bush -- needs the prompter or index cards
Remember that scene in Reality Bites where John Maloney has no idea what he is going to say next and says something like, "Since I'm a Prick ... ly pear"
Cheney at least had some appeal in a grandfatherly sort of way, and came across as just evil, as opposed to Bush's just plain stupid.
maybe that's the appeal of the whole ticket - GW Bush is the town drunk who is so stupid you can't help but love him a little, and Cheney is the curmudgeonly grandfather who's so bitter, you can't help but love him a little.
