I watched the Debate at a Dem HQ and people LOVED Edwards.
There were people saying, "has he always been like this? He's incredible." People said that he proved he could be president tonight. People were praising Edwards up and down. People cheered over and over again during the debate. They loved the part about the MLK vote. They thought Cheney was terrible. They went crazy when Halliburton was mentioned. They thought Edwards made his points incredibly well.

Just thought you'd like to know. Democrats honestly responding in front of other democrats had no hesitations about Edwards and were unanimously impressed.

2. I like JE as well

But I have all my money in Kerry. I think Edwards certainly got the tougher draw though. Cheney is far more in command than the blithering, babbling, incoherent chimp.

3. People cheered more at this debate than the Kerry debate.
But everyone loved the Kerry debate as well.

5. Edwards did fine
He's keeping the momentum going. He didn't break it. At the worst, this won't hurt Kerry in any way. I actually think it will help Kerry a bit.

I'm pleased overall.

6. He did better than fine with the audience I was in. People also loved...
..."was that a question about jobs? Because I thought it was a question about jobs."

7. LOL
That was great! He was supposed to talk about jobs but all Cheney talked about was education. HAHAHAHA! I'm so glad Edwards called him on it.

11. Since only about 1 in 5 people there started as an Edwards supporter...
...it was very revealing.

9. Geez
At this rate, I'm never going to get on a phone or a computer at HQ again. I had enough trouble yesterday finding a place to work.

Damn volunteers! Get outta my way!

Ahem, it's been quite lively over at K/E headquarters since the Kerry/Bush debate. Kerry really jazzed the base.

I can only imagine what this new debate win is going to do to them. Oh the humanity. We'll need a bigger office!

10. John Edwards won the debate.
Cheney was only successful at keeping his human form in check for the duration of the debate.
