1. I figure, all that matters is how well prepared Edwards is
I'm feeling pretty optimistic that he's done his homework, and will have his game face on. Kerry did.

I think that ad is awesome. I'm expecting a non-stop bludgeoning of Cheney by Edwards.

I hope Cheney does what many here are saying he'll do; attack Kerry and not really debate Edwards. If he does that, Edwards will SLAUGHTER him. To do that, Cheney will have to leave all of the allegations Edwards throws at him unanswered and that will be devastating.

I see the debate as lose-lose for Cheney, who is one of the most reviled VP's in memory. His approval ratings and likeability are in the toilet to begin with and he doesn't have an ounce of charisma. He beat Lieberman because Lieberman is a tool.

6. No, It's An Add About Edwards Holding Cheney Accountable
They probably rotate the ad. If you hit refresh a few times I'm sure it will come up eventually...

7. The Last Paragraph is Great!
Asked whether Bush would have any words of wisdom for Cheney, White House spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters: "I don't think he needs to extend any."
