Well, if you consider that Dick Cheney is reveared as this life long power house politician, Its kind of sad that a 1st term Senator could hang so close with Cheney on the foriegn policy portion of the debate. When it came to domestic issuse, many believe, including FOX news, the Edwards took control and came out ahead. (see below quote)

"analysis after the vice presidential debate Tuesday night concluded that Vice President Dick Cheney won the first half of the meeting, on foreign policy, while North Carolina Sen. John Edwards tipped the scales for Democrats on domestic issues.

So I think its a little misleading to say that Cheney "won", just imagine if Edwards had 30+ years in the govement.
2points;

1. you are arguing that because Cheney is so good at what he does, and Edwards is a relative neophite . . .that Edwards did relatively good.

Sure Edwards is a smart guy, and so cute too, when he bats his eyes like a two-bit whore; but "good for a neophite" . .. Is that what we want in the guy who would be a heartbeat away from POTUS?

I'm liking the smart guy with 30+ years in politics.

2. "many believe, including FOX news .. " smacks of "well my dad sez . ..."

The reason I come to OT is not to get what ANBCBSFOXCN-news sez.
