Newt - Kept his cool and answered questions succinctly.
Cain - Also kept his cool, answered most well, except for
his plan.
Bachman - did terrible, didn’t answer questions, shot herself in the foot with the women homeowners
Paul - is Paul. no change. hurt himself w/ cutting
defense.
Romney & Perry - were the same, terrible bickering with each
other. Romney is loosing his slickness.
Santorum - better, but not great. good on Latinos. Good on defense. Good job attacking Romney and Perry.
So, in order of best to worst:
1. Newt
2. Cain
3. Santorum
4. Romney
5. Perry
6. Bachmann
7. Paul
You know, I didn’t give Santorum enough credit for his answer on “Why are you relevant?” I thought he did a really good job trying to make a case for himself. Considering his position in the polls, I thought he did a great job. He’s still not going to get the nomination.
