I agree slinky. I was totally disappointed by Gwen. Good god. What the hell was that juvenile rule saying you couldn't name the name of the leading guy?!
I feel like it was basically a draw. Edwards held his own. Cheney proved to be a formidable debater.

debate was very good. the moderator sucks ball soup. edwards fell hard when he was confronted on voting record and more importantly on not even showing up for several votes. cheney maybe needed more time to confront Halliburton question if he at all had legitimate argument... i am sure there are some sketchy deals going on but i would love to have heard more about that. edwards can't freakin follow debate rules... although minor when he kept repeating John Kerry's name when he was not supposed to but my man can't follow rules... also i thought they were not allowed to ask each other questions directly... and Edwards started the debate by asking cheney questions..
anyway was a good debate over all...

I'm fond of believing the Onion article from the past, about Cheney, that he is a robot with gears and diodes and such.
And I was surprised that Edwards went to the gay thing, and just mentioning that about Cheney's daughter.
But it's no secret, so why not say something?

I would sooner start going to church than become a right wing neo-con my dear

cheney is not a nice man...

Cheney's daughter? OH YES HE WENT THERE!

I'm not a big fan of Edwards, but made myself laugh when thinking what Dan Quayle would have responded if asked what qualifications he had to be VP. [And let's not mention the supposed qualifications of our current Commander-in-Chief]

I'm surprised no one slipped up and called Cheney "Mr. President"
- jevad0
hate to say it but edwards was not overall convincing enough for me tonight. what the hell was that closing statement...useless!!
And that moderator was terrible.
- gogo0
anyone notice that Edwards thanked Cheney & the host & DICK just thanked Gwen?
Also, on the post debate video, Edwards (NY Times) Edwards is shown calling over Dick to introduce him to people, and Dick runs off asap.

I think it's really interesting how in one of Cheney's closing remarks, he said "We've created 1.7 million jobs [in four years]"
Hey pal, might want to mention that there have been job losses of over 3 million during the Bush presidency...
F'ing idiot.
- abizzyman0
fair enough...
based on the thread... you're correct. :)
john_kerry has won this debate.
BASTARD!

i'm responding to your statement. In this thread people are commenting on cheney speaking ability this a surprise after bush.
your quote
Allow me to take this in two parts:"cheney is bullshit the only reason he looks ok, not better then edwards is because the expections have been lowered after bush."
The 'expectations' are not lowered due to Bush. That's a rediculous comment and holds now water... that's a terrible argument that is completely based on subjectivity...
but:
- abizzyman0
Bush is a terrible speaker...
HORRID EVEN!
but that has nothing to do w/this debate tonight.
Cheney's beating Edwards by out-debating him on the subjects... they both are speaking fine... unlike Bush.
Now... if you disagree w/his policy - fine. But this debate is being handled eloquently on both sides (which is my subjective opinion)... The points (not 'facts' as I would need to research them) being presented by Cheney are spanking Edwards.
