I think that this one has the potential to be better than the first Presidential debate.
Anyone else watching?

He was more relaxed and cool than Bush, as well as having the best arguments. His arguments won the debate while looking cool while doing it. Could he have asked for more?
But, I'm off to bed.
Is that so you can fast forward through edwards bits and then claim he had nothing to say ? :lol: :lol:Quote:

Manny and Hank while Edwards is speaking...and to be extra safe from Democrat transmission deseases they are wearing condoms on their heads :lol:
This is almost funny.
Cheney is taking Edwards apart brick by brick, while Edwards flails without effect.
Textbook.
Anyone notice Edwards seems to think his coffee tastes a little funny? He keeps giving weird expressions. I think Cheney is doing alot better job than Bush did... I laughed when he thanked *Edwards about his compliments to his family and had nothing else to add though, that was classic and Edwards looked shocked lol
It's all that "trial-lawyer training".Quote:

Vote for Kerry/Edwards, and THAT problem is gonna get much much worse.
Yup.
Cheney spanked Edwards and took his lunch money.
Never doubted it for a second.
It seems apparent to me that Cheney was giving out old fashon booty whuppin's
It was beautiful; just what was needed...
i gave it 2/3 cheney 1/3 edwards.
Cheney had the stance of "who the f**k are you to question me?" He used the same spin as the whole campaign.
Edwards skipped around the issues less than Cheney and gave more meat But lacked teeth
Makes me wonder if Bush actually does anything
Am i to take it that these debates aren't as pointless as they were when bush got his but whipped?:rolleyes:
Best line.Quote:

@J2 - Nice new avatar you got yourself there :cool:
Actually his best lines where the ones that wern't really factual or were slightly misleading.Quote:

"I am in the senate every tuesday and this is the first time i met you"... very good line and i take my hat off to him....bullseye.... However it turns out that yes he does go to the senate every tuesday....but he almost never meets democrats, instead he has his "boys" around him.
There were quite a few inacuracies in his "facts", but then Edwards didn't call him on them so tough luck on Edwards.
This is not to say that all of Edwards "facts" were set concrete....many would have left deep footprints had someone walked over them.
Did Cheney really vote to leave Mandela in prison? :huh:
He voted against a resolution for the USA to recognise the ANC and freedom for Nelson Mandela. He viewed the ANC as terrorists, not freedom fighters. He has since changed his mind.Quote:

Cheney is not a saint, i don't think anyone could say he is. He is a hard line politician who looks out for himself and his own. It was an eye opener to watch his face and general uncomfortableness when the issue of gay marriage policy was raised.
I wouldn't vote for him to be a president but i have to wonder why he is playing second fiddle to this incompetant buffoon we have in charge
Cheney did a good job.
He was calm (as he usually is) and made sure he used a lot of "uh"s.
Observe many politicians and speakers and how many "uhhh"s they say.
People tend to view that as speaking intelligently when in fact you are trying to find a word to say.
Cheney had much political speak that the average cares nothing about.
After making remarks about the money that lawyers such as Edwards make through a loophole, Edwards brought up Halliburton and offshore account with which folks like Cheney hide money and Cheney looked like he wanted rip Edwards head off.
One thing is that Cheney looks more "Presidential" in the sense that he's an old fart that talks calmly.
On th flip side, Edwards looks like, well, a lawyer. He's also looks severely young in comparison and more animated and full of life.
That actually works against Edwards. Also his facial expressions when Cheney was talking looked rather gay and assholish.
Edwards messed up when the moderator said "without saying your Presidential candidates name" and damned if Edwards didn't say it....twice.
Regarding points, I think Edwards made his more clear than Cheney.
Cheney tended to answer questions effectively by effectively not answering questions.
Kerry thoroughly exposed Bush for the boob that he is and won the first debate. I also think he won by a huge margin.
This debate was won by Cheney but by a small margin. He gets points for being an asshole especially with the Dean remark.
Anyone noticed at the end how Edwards thanked Cheney and the moderator and ole Dick thanked.......the moderator.?
I agree. I wouldn't vote for him either. Bush is an idiot prone to cronyism.Quote:
