The VP Debate
I think that it’s a draw — with the slight possibility of Cheney winning. He’s a much better speaker than Bush, even when he’s sneering. Edwards is much better looking and smiles more, but Cheney held his own. Had this been a walking around and talking kind of debate, I think Edwards would have mopped the floor with Cheney.
No real stand-out moments that I noticed, though I didn’t watch the whole thing. It pretty much went the way I expected, and I don’t think this is going to change any minds.
Although it sucked that Edwards thanked Cheney for coming, but Cheney didn’t thank Edwards. Also, Bush was hardly ever mentioned — certainly far less than Kerry was. Is that because Cheney actually runs things?
