4. Very well

I think he did well up against Cheney. He's no Bush so he did have a task, but I think he did well. :) I was happy.

9. I agree

Cheney did better then Bush did,but Edwards won that debate hands down,I liked Edwards plan for frivolous lawsuits.also liked when Edwards hinted toward drug company advertising reform.

13. Smooth, in the sense of being unruffled,

hitting his points well, having a pleasant poker face all the time. If Cheney annoyed him, he never let it show.

And I'm glad he brought up Halliburton. could have done more, but it would have been seen as too snippy.

he held his own with Dr. Death on the attack side, and was naturally more inspiring than Cheney could ever be.

21. Great.

Our founding father's wanted people like him in the govt. People that did not spend their whole life making money off the govt. That is what Vice has done. Why else was he head of a Corp that mostly deal with defense contract after he was head of the DOD.And now has a Billion dollars or what ever he has.

29. disappointing

I've looked forward to having Cheney in the seat for years, and don't feel satisfied. Any number of our Dem candidates could've destroyed that criminal. Ed Rendell was correct. "John Edwards would be a good VP candidate.. someday".

We are still going to win, though. Kerry will put Bush away in the debates.

32. Strategic

Watch Cheney's lies get exposed one-by-one over the next 2 weeks.

Edwards played a game of chess and didn't get caught up in all of Cheney's red herrings.

VERY bright, forceful, with a command of the facts. A powerful advocate of Kerry/Edwards. Kerry picked a very good man as his Vice President.

54. THIRSTY.

I watched the split-scrren version on C-SPAN and found it incredibly distracting that Edwards was constantly leaning out of the shot to reach for his blue cup of water and drink from it.

He must have done that a dozen times.

I also thought that he could have had a lot more FACTS for rebuttal handy, since Cheney was lying his ass off.
