The Vice President should not be in the media. The Vice President should not be essentially sitting there for four years playing PR games and trying to be President. It used to be that if you were a rising star in your party and were highly capable but didn't have everyone in the party loving you, then you were made VP. Before this administration, a few Vice Presidents had chosen instead to work on their resume rather than the tasks assigned to them.
Frankly, I am glad that Cheney has chosen to serve in his role and not just smile in front of a camera.

The oddest thing I heard was Cheney saying he didn't aspire to be President and that made him a good Vice President. I have heard him say before that he does not want to be President. Yet, if something happens to Bush, he IS President. I don't think he should continually point out that he doesn't want to be President.
The "we have a plan for that" from Edwards was getting old. I think it's intentional, as a "theme" from the campaign, but I found it annoying. I don't want to hear "we have a plan", I want to hear the plan only. Is it meant to be a modification of "I have a dream"?
I think both were better at avoiding questions that they didn't want to highlight. I'd say it was a pretty even match as far as their debating skills. I still agree with more of what Edwards said.
