Edwards needs to score big in the debate tonight. He was very good in the last
debate, but wasn't able to score enough debate points to rise above the others.

What I mean by debate points, is the need to counter argue or clarify when attacked.

Case in point, was the volley about the bankruptcy bill he voted for that never became law, and his reason for voting for it which was an increase in the minimum wage.

Hillary took "charge" of that argument.

Edwards can not leave anything on the table tonight, and must rise above the other two in such a way, that fence sitters are swayed.

1. I agree, and I hope he knows that.
He's a smart man, I'm sure he'll do the right thing.

2. Got it from inside the campaign, just last night-
Expect a fight. He's pumped up and ready to go.

3. That's good news.
Although I have to admit that is pretty much what he is already doing.
