Jeanne Moos takes a look at the top debate zingers so far in this elections season.
WASHINGTON (CNN) - With over 20 presidential debates so far in this election season, the candidates have gotten their fair share of zingers and one-liners in. CNN's Jeanne Moos takes a look at the 10 most memorable ones.
Among those on the list:
- Mike Huckabee: "We've had a Congress that spends money like John Edwards at a beauty shop." (May 15)
- Joe Biden: "Rudy Giuliani - there's only three things he mentions in a sentence: a noun, a verb, and 9/11." (October 30)
- Mitt Romney: "This is a lot like ‘Law and Order.' It has a huge cast. The series seems to go on forever, and Fred Thompson shows up at the end." (October 9)
- Mike Gravel: "Some of these people frighten me." (April 26)
- Joe Biden: "Dennis [Kucinich], the thing I like most about you is your wife." (July 23)
- John McCain (on Clinton's support of a Woodstock museum): "I wasn't there. I am sure it was a cultural and pharmaceutical event. I was tied up at the time." (October 21)

Or better yet, catch the Democrats go at it in Las Vegas – again this weekend: Sat. & Sun., 6 & 10 p.m. ET. It was the most watched debate of the primary season.

Harry from Iowa and Eric: I agree with you both.
I wish we could suspend polls until at least after January. Wouldn't that be something!
And that question about drivers licenses deserved more than yes/no!!I didn't tune into the debate to hear yes/no – I wanted to know what each of the candidates THOUGHT!!
Didn't clinton say "no" to drivers licenses yet 2 weeks ago said it was too complicated of a question for yes or no. So why know 2 weeks later can she answer no.
Harry in Iowa? My exact sentiments. Exact sentiments. Well spoken.
