WWE All Star Night! After NCIS.
I am so glad this debate is tonight! Can’t stand WWE!
CNN.com is streaming the debate
I KNEW they’d put Cain and Bachmann on the ends. The media is pushing Newt and Romney down our throats, so they get the middle spots.
The goal should be to take out Romney. The MSM wants this RINO to be the nominee in the worst way.
Honestly want to know why Bachman is even in this. Shouldnt you be a declared candidate. There is a guy here in Frisco Texas (Harold Heard) that is running for President, shouldnt he be up there?????
CNN promo commentaries are favoring Romney.
Well, IMO, it doesn’t matter where they put those lame RINO’s...ya know, the whole thing about, you can shine a turd, but it’s still a turd.
Hopefully Cain and Bachman will squeeze em all....to the middle. tee hee
I just turned on CNN. They already have two people on dissing Sarah and praising Romney.
HERE WE GO!
The CNN Bus has a flag on it (I thought that was wrong...)
Go, Herman, Go!!!
” dissing Sarah” the commentators???
Santorum comes on trying to sound tough.
[couldn’t help but snicker at him]
Why do Iowa and New Hampshire get all the publicity. It ain’t right.
Gingrich remarks about the Obama depression.
Yep, something about she’s doomed to failure if she runs. Typical CNN.
