Default Post VP debate comments

I believe that Sen. Edwards could have done a better job. Dick Cheney did very well, but I think he was vulnerable on some issues and Sen. Edwards did not hold him to task on some of them, especially when he went on about Zarqawi. Sen. Edwards seemed to get that broken record sound bite problem that President Bush had in the last debate.

As most here, this debate is not going change my vote. But I have to say Cheney did a good job staying on message, even if I disagree with his message.

BTW. That moderator was bad. And I believe her questions were a little softball for the VP.

Default Ray Charles

Even Ray Charles could see that Cheney whupped the Breck Girl like a drum. If it'd been a fight, they would have stopped it.

Default It wasn't even close, & you libs. KNOW IT.

It wasn't even close!

The immediate polls were more than likely just a bunch of frantic Democrats jumping online to vote over & over again. Cheney won HANDS DOWN. Even democrat strategists look like they could break down in tears right after the debate.

Dick Cheney more than showed his superiority of knowledge & class, in the debate tonight with John Edwards.

1. Cheney stated that as President of the Senate, that tonight is the FIRST time that he has actually met John Edwards in person. Because of all the senate meetings that Edwards has missed. Reflecting also upon John Edwards home town paper, referring to Senator Edwards as Senator GONE. Several shots fired into John Kerry's swift boat.

2. Cheney also brought into the light, as to why John Kerry & John Edwards voted for the authority to go to war with Iraq, & then voted against supporting our troops. Even after Kerry stated during an interview, that it would be irresponsible for anyone to vote against the appropriation bill. Cheney said he didn't understand it at first. Until he realized that anti-war candidate, Howard Dean was ahead in the primaries. Then both Kerry & Edwards voted against supporting the troops, in order to get the votes needed to overcome Howard Dean. Cheney stated: If Kerry & Edwards could not stand up under pressure, to Howard Dean. Then how can we expect them to stand up under pressure on the war on terror. 5 mortar rounds were just launched into the bow of Kerry's swift boat.

3. Edwards came back reflecting that we have lost 1000 troops in Iraq, & no allies are helping. Plus we have 90% of the cost. Edwards then went on to talk about the 1st Gulf war. Where 90% of the bill was paid for by others. Cheney made it clear that Kerry had voted against removing Sadam Husien from Kuwait even with total UN approval & world wide support. Cheney then went on about the degrading comments that are directed from the Kerry/Edwards ticket toward our allies. "Basically stating this shows the ignorance of the Kerry/Edwards ticket." We have lost many more Iraqi's trying to win their freedom, than U.S casualties. And all of the allies that are supporting us, including Prime Minister Allawi get from the Kerry/Edwards campaign are insults & degradations. Kerry's swift boat is leaking badly, & is listing to port by 70 degrees..

4. And finally what was done tonight, that was not done during Thursday nights debate. SENATOR KERRY'S TWENTY YEAR VOTING RECORD. Was brought up. Kerry has jumped off of his swift boat & is swimming to shore under extreme enemy fire

EDWARDS DID NO GOOD FOR KERRY. EDWARDS CAN'T EVEN CARRY HIS HOME STATE. BUSH IS AHEAD THERE BY 11 POINTS. EDWARDS WAS JUST A SHOW HORSE FOR THE KERRY CAMPAIGN. Kerry, thought that Edwards, being a skilled trial lawyer, would be able to hold up against Dick Cheney. And that's the only reason that Kerry put him on the ticket. Kerry thought WRONG.
