I think Cheney and Edwards both did fine. Certainly, Cheney did not exhibit the same meltdown we remember from Bush last week. From the perspective of the overall election, my guess is that the Kerry campaign people have to be happy -- nothing that happened tonight will kill the momentum from last week's debate. Tomorrow, we'll hear that there were no knock out punches, and that America will have to wait until Friday's debate for any possible changes in this election. I think the Bush campaign must also be comfortable with tonight's result: Dick came across as calm and knowledgeable.
Ironically, I wonder if voters on both sides have been left wishing they could vote for Cheney or Edwards to be president.
