I tend to agree...Newt KO’d the debate and Romney actually did well.

Perry won overwhelmingly because almost every question asked of the others had Perry’s name in it.

ABSOLUTELY!

I love Sarah, but she needs to be in the debates!

She may be my favorite but now she needs to get into the fray!

***

The longer she says out, the longer the other candidates get vetted and tested.

The candidates take a lot more damage from each other and the media than Sarah does.

It was no debate, it was a beauty contest. All did well, all should be President instead of the mulatto boy in there.

Winner? Not sure. Many great comments. And what I most appreciated was that the common goal - stated by several - was to defeat Barak Hussein in 2012 and save America.

Didn't watch this piece of crap. The GOP has nothing. Without looking at it I will guess that Romney and Newt would probably crush the rest. Newt has the best plan for recovery. Too bad the baggage is too great. Romney has the same problem. The rest should just retire. If Palin runs, I feel she has the right conservative credentials, but just not the power of a strong politician. We are F.

Just painful to watch the Lefty libtards with their gotcha questions. How MSNBC was granted the right to run a debate like this, at Reagan Library, of all places, will never be known.

Agreed. They should just put on their own debate, upload it to a website, and tell everyone where to point their browsers, and be done with it.

I’m hoping Palin’s in by the time I go to Orlando at the end of the month for the FL straw poll and FOX debate.

Keep in mind the MSM wants Romney to win in my humble opinion. What channel was this on?

Left to right:
Santorum - Sincere, good on family values but a little reaching on Senate work - best seen as Senator.

Newt: Great in bunch of answers - best money line of night was HUGE smackdown of LameStream Media. Biggest to date.
Fills a vital role in these debates as bouncer.

Bachmann: Just.not.convincing.enough. Please don’t bring up the 23x7 again Michelle! On point and brought divisive MSM questions back to point attack on Zero. Good for that.

Mitt: Always looks like passing gas at a party. Other than that, once the jousting with Perry was done, actually gained my respect for standing up for Perry when moderators tried to gouge Perry’s wounds even further. Not bad on pro-business + Bain Capital defense.

Paul: Well, the usual. Once or twice actually gave him kudos for saying LSM’s false premise of pro-market = cold-hearted - actually said articulately that being pro-market and pro-liberty are good for individuals and poor.

Cain: Most well spoken I’ve seen of him in a long time. Been practicing his coherence. Very articulate and strength showed when talking business. But that’s it. Oh yeah - couple of good zingers at Zero.

Huntsman: Something about this guy I just don’t trust. you could almost believe some of his lines - some. But he did it for me when at the end he said AGW is settled science and ‘FACTS’ of evolution as in a light of calling others on stage kooks.

When Univision guy came up - most did reasonably well with answers - and I was impressed that knowing who he was and the audience he’d report back to, they stood their ground on securing the border and cutting off welfare to illegals. Good for them.

I believe that the cream will rise to the top eventually, and that’s why Palin isn’t in yet. She will need a smaller crowd to get more than 1 minute of air time to show she has the gravitas!

Sad, isn't it. The best man has so damaged himself by his questionable decisions like Scaza Fava and saying that he didn't realize Obama would be as liberal as he is, along with a few other gaffs throughout his career, that he really doesn't stand a chance.

Newt really did give the best answers.

Newt shows he’s the one man on that stage that really has any busines being President.

Whaaaaat!? Are you off your meds?

You should have watched rather than throwing rocks at all of them.

I’m ready to forgive Newt his transgressions and support him for President, but I doubt the rest of America is. :(

“Seriously you could support Mittens?”

Not my first, or third choice even, but I’m confident he could beat Obama in the general and start turning the country around.

Funny - you and I got very similar reads. Only thing I left out which really surprised me was compared to the polling and hoopla past few weeks about Perry, and even though it was a bloodsport against him tonight - he seemed a little too shakey a number of times. Won’t forgive him for the H/T to Zero. Idiot stuff.
