Edwards has to give up on the soundbites and hit him hard with the facts. The facts are all on our side.

1. I don't see it
Several here think Edwards is doing poorly. I don't see it that way at all.

I guess it may not play well up North and in Canada, but I think he's doing a great job.

4. Edwards is geting beter the longer he goes. I think he just needed to get
his footing. Still, I think he would do better/sound better if he was more original/off the cuf and gave up the canned Kerry/Edwards stump soundbites.

9. Yes, and we know he's lying. America doesn't. Edwards is starting to
call him on it and he's getting better as he goes along. It may have just been beginners jitters.

6. He's an evil mother fucker, but he talks fast and does better than Chimpy
Edwards is holding his own, though. But this one is much tougher than last week's.

10. Trouble is, short of Edwards painting a very clear picture, America
isn't as informed as we are and won't catch the lies.

13. Unfortunately, it is up to the media to go over this debate piece by piece
and take what each one has said and flesh out the bigger picture.

Does anyone trust our media to do this?
