The good bits

It’s turning out to be fascinating watching what sound bites the campaigns pick after debates to represent their best moments. Below, we have John Edwards lecturing us about lobbyists. Here is Joe Biden’s “straight talk” — their description.

First, on the resolution for war: He says voting for the war raised the price of oil, emboldened George Bush to do what he wants, and drove moderates in Afghanistan and Pakistan underground. “All it has done is hurt us.”

Next, Iran: “What is the greatest threat to America: 2.6 kilograms of enriched uranium in Tehran or an out-of-control Pakistan? It’s not even close.”

Rudy Giuliani: “There’s only three things he mentions in a sentence: a noun and verb and 9/11… This man is truly not qualified to be president…. I’m looking forward to running against Rudy Giuliani.”

Chinese toy imports: “If I were president, I’d shut down, flat shut down any imports from China. Period, in terms of toys.”

He’s on a roll.

Made in anywhere but China

Chris Dodd calls on the White House, under its World Trade Organization authority, to ban imports of food and toys from China. Frankly, I’m surprised it took so long for someone to make this an issue.
