1. Edwards has gotten less talking time than Kerry at prior
debates. He's in a no-win position because if he's assertive, people make negative attributions, but if he's not, his message isn't heard.

The panel should have redirected the strenuous efforts they made to talk over Edwards into keeping time so that all the candidates had equal time.

This was the absolute worst of the debates and I can only hope the next one will be better and more fairly managed.
