1. "They've (bushies) painted a very compelling picture of themselves..."
Edited on Tue Sep-07-04 07:38 PM by gauguin57
as the people to lead the country, Eliz. says. But it's an inaccurate picture.

2. Elizabeth being nice ... saying she thinks Bush was trying to say
OB/GYNs practicing their "livelihood."

Now paying tribute to Teresa ... WHO IS COMING TO LANCASTER/YORK/HARRISBURG PA TOMORROW! To talk about women's health care. WOO HOO!

5. Dignified
And a real GENUINE person, not like the fake Pickles Bush. I think more women would look up to her than to Pickles any day.

6. why Mrs Edwards watches Countdown
Keith said the reason brought a tear to his eye. Anyone know what that's all about?

10. My guess is that he was a favorite
of their son when Keith was on ESPN.

16. I was thinking something like that
I figured it had to do with their son, but hadn't made the ESPN link.

Wouldn't be surprised if that's it

15. It has something to do with her son
Edited on Tue Sep-07-04 07:56 PM by aint_no_life_nowhere
He speaks about it in a commentary at his MSNBC website, hinting that it has something to do with her son. Apparently, her son who died in 1996 was a big fan of Keith's ESPN show. He will explain it tomorrow. By the way, he seems to be a big fan of Mrs. Edwards.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5445086/

Please e-mail Keith Olbermann to tell him you appreciate his show. He's one of the last decent ones left on cable or network news:

9. Solid. Very solid.
As are all the Kerry-Edwards children. Watched a Youth Forum with them a few days ago...Cate, Vanessa, Andre, and the other Kerry daughter. Answering real questions. When do I see the Bush girls doing that?

11. Wow! She is so smart and articulate and down-to-earth!
An incredible woman.

We will be lucky to have her as the 2nd lady, helping her husband and taking up worthy causes that will make a difference to all of us.

We North Carolinians are PROUD!

17. Compare Elizabeth to that snit Cheney's married to and its all clear
None of the women in that administration hold a candle to Elizabeth Edwards. And they know it. Never a bad word from Bush or Cheney for her. Have to leave it to Rush and O'Really.

21. We're screwed
Mrs. Edwards came across as an intelligent, reasonable, responsible, principled person. She didn't affect some weird Texas twang, didn't invoke Jayzus, didn't look brain-dead and otherwise appeared to be bright and normal.

This is not good.

(seriously, sort of)

22. DH, who is thoroughly tired of my obsessive interest in this campaign
called me into the room after I put the little guy to bed to tell me: I'm voting for Elizabeth Edwards. Wow. She was great.

He's not easily impressed, I have to say. But she bowled him over.

25. terrific interview
She reminds me a little of Tipper - very intelligent, articulate and likeable.

She's such a huge improvement over our current horror of a second lady (and JE is a HUGE improvement over Fang).

(btw, I loved it when Olberman openly stated that he didn't vote for Bush/Fang at the end of the show. Nice to see someone not cowering in fear).

27. That's the best Cheney rip I've ever heard
El Sneero just makes me barf; there's something beautifully pure about the name "Fang".

Thanks, I'm still laughing.

30. Yes, but...
Does Elizabeth Edwards "know her place" as the Bushies would say? I think she rocks!! My husband got to shake her hand somewhere and said she reminded him of me, she must be great then! LOL

she is smart without being arrogant.

Can't wait for the second half today.
