Cheney vs. Edwards: A mighty fight between the parties' best.

[Bhs Crew]

Tomorrow is the debate that we’ve all been waiting for.

In the Red corner is Dick "the President" Cheney. As the most powerful Vice President ever, Cheney is the mind behind many of Bush’s policies and is a towering figure in the Republican Party. An expert in many fields, he is expected to state his points in a cold factual manner, regardless of how factual they may actually be. You will hear him lay out the state of the world and wonder how anyone could be blind and ignorant enough to disagree. He will tell you how to save the country from destruction, he will tell you not to support the terrorists; finally he will leave you with a choice, and if you love your country you will make the right decision.

In the Blue corner we have John “Silver-tongue” Edwards. A rising star, Edwards has honed his speeches to woo even the most stubborn swing-voter. Fast on his feet, he is expected to work his charismatic powers to make people yearn for the future he promises. His smiling positive attacks will leave you with a warm happy dissatisfaction with the current administration. John Edwards is one of you, and he is offering a chance to make the country great, why would you turn him down?

We will hear the presidential candidates’ positions laid out better then they possibly could. We will hear the other side attacked in a manner that would make Joe McCarthy weep for joy. You will laugh, you will shout, you will be entertained.

This is one of those debates on PBS right? If so, then it doesn't matter. Anywho, I expect an attack or hint at the whole trial laywer thing.

Nope. This is nationally televised on the major networks in prime time. Just like the Presidential ones.

It is a must see.

ya, it is a must watch, because if Bush or Kerry, whomever gets elected, continues to ride bicycles, they may end up smacking their heads one of these times and need to be replaced. want to make sure you have the right person as the right-hand man to the president.

Dick Cheney has made millions from his last few years in the oil industry, and Lieberman couldn't resist the opportunity to turn to his rival, and point out that he has become very much better off during the Clinton years.

Mr Cheney hit back, "I'm pleased to tell you Joe, the government had nothing to do with it".

That's weird. That's coming from a guy that worked for a company that made most of it's money from government contracts...

I hope Edwards bring that up. I doubt it though since Kerry didn't bring up the "Bring it on"-quote.

Nevertheless, it's going to be an interesting debate.

I might actually watch this one. Cheney/Edwards BS doesn't piss me off like Bush/Kerry BS, for some reason.

Maybe because the VP's are both smarter than the candidates they support. :D

I'm rooting for Edwards not only because I'm a Democrat but also because he's my Senator.

You'll see who it is when a lizard crawl out of Cheney's eye during the debate (joke shamelessly stolen from Marc Maron).
