Debate Between the Candidates for Vice President. Tonight Vice President Dick Cheney and Democratic Nominee for Vice President John Edwards will debate on TV. Since the opinion polls now show more even figures following the last debate, it will be important. Dick Cheney said at a campaign rally, according to Financial Times, about Senator Edwards that: "It is alleged that he got his job because he′s charming, sexy, good-looking and has great hair. ... How do you think I got the job?". Thus Cheney stresses that his own competence for the job is heavy enough to outweigh his deficits in those fields. Senator Edwards is reported to have said last week that "Iraq is in a mess because of two men - George Bush and Dick Cheney." Allow me in all modesty to propose adding a third name that all might agree should top the list: Saddam Hussein.
