I am going to get a lot of hell for this one, but honestly, it's just too good to pass up. Here's a clip put together by the John Edwards camapaign, capitalizing on Hillary Clinton's fumbling on last Tuesday's primary debate.

Wow. It's the one debate I chose not to watch because it had Tim Russert as the moderator ... and I just hate his Botoxed eyes.

Who knew it would be "the debate" to watch?!?

To say the state's mainstream media is making too much out of the animosity between Bruno and Spitzer is an understatement. It shows how little actual reporting is happening not just in Albany and New York City but in each and every major newspaper in the state.

The following is a clipping of the whole speech but it will give you great insight into Spitzer's oratiorial skills.
