Wow, who knew! The VP candidates are a lot more interesting than the presidential ones!
From early in last night’s event, Vice President Dick Cheney (R) and Senator John Edwards (D-NC) lobbed every attack—personal or policy—they could at one another, making for quite the compelling debate (complete with exaggerations and dramatic hyperbole).
My personal analysis of last night’s vice presidential debate probably won’t be finished up until sometime this evening (what with work being so hectic, and so on). In the mean time, check out this informative AP article.
The first and only planned Vice Presidential debate of the 2004 election season will occur between Vice President Dick Cheney (R) and Senator John Edwards (D-NC) tonight at Case Western Reserve University. Tune in to watch (I recommend C-SPAN, but the other networks will cover it as well) at 9:00 p.m. EST.
In case you’ve ever wondered where George Mason University stands institutionally on the political spectrum, they were going to pay Michael Moore $35,000 of our tax and tuition money to speak on campus five days before the election.
If you missed the debate on Thursday, be sure to download it for free from the iTunes Music Store (thanks to Audible.com and C-SPAN). Give it a listen so you’ll have a [slightly] better idea of what each candidate stands for in the foreign policy arena.
