I'm brand spanking new to AS. Had Moho years and years ago but never really used it. I played with it yesterday a bit and was trying to import some art done in sketchbook pro to use the auto trace feature. In short, it didn't really turn out so well.
Should I just draw them in AS? Does photoshop make for better trace results?[/img]

Draw in AS. The tracing tool, traces outlines of the lines and makes each line into a shape. This new feature should be avoided at all cost. If you really need tracing get something like:

It seems that every raster to vector program can do a better job.

I prefer to not use trace software with AS, I do all the work by myself, it doesn't matter how good it be, no machine can understand exactly how many points you need for animation.
Anyway, from my experience, the very best vector tracing software is this:
