You have thirty seconds to respond, Mr. Vice President

why is it that GWEN constantly tells cheney this, yet cuts edwards off and moves on to the next question.

i'm not trying to sound like sour grapes, but she is just horrible!!!

just shows how much a moderator can throw a debate.


god help us with charlie gibson. he's even worse.

1. You're NOT imagining it!!

It's been making me NUTS!!! SHe's been so unfair! Cheney gets a free pass each time, and she fucking passes over Edwards when it's OBVIOUS he wants to respond. Someone said she's a pal of Condi Rice? And she's GOP.. it's obvious!

2. I knew she would be a bad choice

She's ambitious - she'll always side with those in power - it's her essential character. She's afraid to call pubs on their lies.

I've never liked her. I remember when she interviewed Barack Obama literally right after his great speech - she asked annoying questions about Kerry with a stony face. I could tell that Obama was perplexed by her - he was lookin' at her like 'damn, who is fool?'

3. Rumguy nails it

Even on "Washington Weak" and "Newshour" Gwen is horrible. When she isn't sitting there like a bump on a log, she's smirking $hrub-like and trying to skewer Democrats.

She did about as well as I expected, though she managed to restrain herself from...uh...falling to her knees in front of Cheney.
