He did lay out some whoppers, especially the whole 'I never said
Saddam was a part of 9/11' thing.  But not everyone watching will see
through the redirects and the fog of figures and foreign policy errata
that he threw in with every answer.

I was really referring to the fact that he often answered different
questions than those asked, or didn't answer/follow up at all. I would
have thought they'd take every opportunity for Cheney to lord his
considerable "gravitas" over Edwards, but Edwards got out pretty
unscathed, though he definitely got hard hit a few times.

A tie is a win for Kerry/Edwards I'd say, since it likely won't slow
the momentum they have right now. We'll see what the spin does though.
