The Sound of the Crowd

Recommended Post-Debate Reading

A quick one from Mark Evanier on Watching the Veep Debate

CBS News: Cheney, Edwards, Clash On Iraq. And if you’re having a strange feeling of deja vu, it’s because except for the names that’s precisely the same headline they used for the Bush/Kerry debate. Obvious Iraq is a major issue, but do you think there’s a Rock the Casbah fan there or something?

Two from Mark A.R. Kleiman: Cheney’s Nose Continues To Grow.

Wondering about that whole “the first time I ever met you was when you walked on the stage tonight” thing? Jon Stewart is gonna have a field day with this one.

Another Big Cheney Whopper. On another topic, do you know that there are no Burger Kings left in Seattle? And I miss them.

Tapped: Maybe Cheney Is Funded By Drug Groups, Too. This is beautiful. Remember when Cheney gave that web site a plug? He gave the wrong URL. He commed when he should have orged. The site to which he just sent tens of millions of people…is not one President Bush wants them to see.

I love it.

Talking Points Memo: Josh Marshall’s unmediated impressions.

And finally, also from CBS: And The Winner Is…Edwards. They’re talking about their poll of uncommited voters, BTW.

That’s the news, and I am outta here…
