I would watch about 15 minutes of debate, then watch a couple minutes of the game, then switch back. I saw most of it, and it was definately a decisive victory. Edwards just didn't come prepared, and Cheney did. I think he expected Cheney to be defensive like Bush was in his debate, so he wasn't prepared for the attacks Cheney presented and he had no retort.

Funny thing actually happened after the debate. John Edwards was talking to a group of his supporters, and he was saying that in response to Cheney's accusation that they'd never met, that Cheney was wrong, that they had in fact met at some fundraising dinner, and a second time at the swearing in of a Senator. That was pretty dumb of Edwards, because in doing so he totally validated Cheney's point.
