[October]

10. LOL - Cheney's Never met Edwards comment...

Jon Stewart said "Oh really, you mean you never exchanged a friendly 'Go f*ck yourself' comment in the halls?"

LOL

[ohioan]

17. Pointed out that Cheney has only presided over Senate TWICE!

[GimmeDANEger]

11. covered factcheck.com to soros' site hahahaha

[crispini]

12. bwahahahaha~ he picked up on factcheck.com!

[AnIndependentTexan]

14. BTW that redirect wasn't done by him

It was reported on Kerry/Edwards forum last night that a friend of a forum member registered it before anyone else could and redirected it to his site. Meaning they beat the GOP to it!

[cliss]

13. Someone called the Mike Malloy show last night

after the Edwards-Cheney (notice who I put first?) debate. He said, "I just saw Legolas shoot a troll".

heh he

[crispini]

15. she's here, she's queer, next question. BWAH

[greenbriar]

16. Gay Daughter

she is here, she is queer

that is all

[Democrat 4 Ever]

18. Ironic when you realize that a fake news show has more

credibility than the network ones. Stewart is a genius. Kerry has to steal the "20/20 Blindsight" comment!

[AuntPatsy]

19. Showed the factcheck.org site today stating that Cheney can't

even get their web address right...obviously, they are not exactly happy with Cheney, so I wonder why he directed people their? Even if he erred on the correct address...

By the way, thank you for reminding me about the Daily Show...

[greenbriar]

21. no problem

it is good

[MazeRat7]

24. And of course FatChicks.org... that was a hoot. (n/t)

[Gregorian]

23. Bob Shieffer, YEAH!

This is going to be good. Now I see why he's nervous- he's got a piece of the country's future on his shoulders.
"We've got a Gategap."
I think we got lucky with this moderator. I say that without any knowledge of who he is. But he's definitely a good guy.
Yeehaw.

[Big Al from WI]

25. Scheiffer's typically pretty conservative

He seemed to support Bush in 2000, but he also seems to be an old-school Republican who realizes the damage that Bush is doing.

He thought that Edwards definitely won the debate last night- said that none of Cheney's accusations were sticking and that Edwards brought up valid points about Halliburton.

[Maestro]

26. Bob Schieffer will be good

He is one of those ole time journalists a la Kronkite, Morrow, etc...I don't think he is as conservative as some people think. He was a war journalist in Viet Nam I believe and definitely hated what he saw there. We'll see what he does but it will be better than Gwenny girl.

Edit: Found this:

Schieffer's philosophy of campaign coverage: I do not believe that it is my job to make a campaign. I believe that's up to the candidates. I think our responsibility is to report what they're saying, and then let their opponent take it apart, and report that. Now mind you, we have to be critical. We have to, when we spot somebody telling a lie, we need to point that out. But I don't think that as journalists, we should be the opposition party, so to speak. I think the campaign is made by the candidates. We're the people sitting a little above that, reporting what each side is saying about the other. And I don't think it's our responsibility to try to run against everybody that's seeking public office. We're reporters, we're not candidates. And different people will say -- will have different ideas about that ... I'm probably a little bit in the minority as such. Because I just think it's up to the candidate's opponent. The main responsibility for picking apart what a candidate has to say, the main responsibility for that goes to his opponent, not to the people covering things.
