The Debate, Round-by-round

Keith Olbermann does a funny blow-by-blow on last night's debate, with a thrilling overturning of his results based on today's uncovering of Cheney's lies.

If the Dems spin the untruths from last night's debate correctly, it could go a long way to underscoring one of their central, and most effective themes: That the Bush Administration is not straight with the American people.

Like Bush in the Gore-Bush debates of 2000, it's possible that Edwards may have been a bit behind on the debate itself, but will wind up winning (deservedly) the post-debate debate, if the take-away for voters is that Cheney and Bush are liars.

Try rolling it around on your tongue with me: President Kerry. Ex-President George W. Bush. It just sounds right.
