SNIP..."LOS ANGELES - A dunk tank with a George Bush impersonator and actors parading around as "Billionaires for Bush" added a carnival-like atmosphere Tuesday night to a fund-raiser featuring former Democratic presidential hopeful Howard Dean."
He said that Edwards was more qualified to be second-in-command than current Vice President Dick Cheney.

"He doesn't have the Halliburton issue hanging over him," Dean said. "And his language is better."

SNIP..."The remarks were in reference to Cheney's former role as the CEO of the oil services giant Halliburton Co., which has obtained lucrative contracts in Iraq. Cheney also was criticized by some for recently cursing at Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., on the floor of the Senate during a confrontation over Halliburton.

"I've never heard John Edwards swear," Dean said. :evilgrin:
