AMEN!

[rintense]

HA! Oh really? Merck seems to be doing nicely.

[dragnet2]

Bachman just KO’d Perry

[jackv]

Yes, the viral stds are especially devestating.

[Mozilla]

Yeah she is a firebrand. She doesn’t waver from her convictions.

[KansasGirl]

Santorum didn’t approach the lantino question right. He should have said he doesn’t divide Americans up into groups by race and color but wants to attract votes from all Americans by doing what is best for all Americans.

Wolf leads Bachmann into another attack on Perry. He can always count on her.

[From The Deer Stand]

She wants to be be president too much, she is willing to do anything and say anything to elect herself

Kind of a characteristic for a presidential candidate, wouldn't you agree? I would hope ALL candidates want to be president "too much" or they wouldn't be standing on stage tonight.

[Red_Devil 232]

Yep! Crashed Head on into the wall!

[teg_76]

Perry getting dinged on his Dream Act too.....tough night!

Wow he’s really pandering to illegals.

[Gene Eric]

Hunstman is an idiot.

[Lady Lucky]

Whoa. Huntsman just said Perry was TREASONOUS in the comment about amnesty.

[netmilsmom]

>>There was an opt out.<<

Who gave the government the right to tell me that I have to fill out a form to “opt out” of a vaccine that is totally against my better judgement.
It’s bigger than one vaccine. It’s my parental rights.

[MestaMachine]

No she couldn’t. Even her fellow TEA Party caucus memebers do NOT trust her. They think she is in it for herself. not my words. Theirs.

[luvie]

She did. Perry IS wrong on the education for illegals. I concede on that one!

[SuzyQue]

Why is Cain asked so few questions?

[Outlaw Woman]

Absolutely.

(gosh this thread is moving quickly...can’t keep on top of it)

[tomkat]

Why don't y'all start an INOCULATION thread ?

sheeeeez . . .

[Tennessee Nana]

Secure the border so they cant get into the US ???

Huntsman cant even keep them out of Utah

[daler]

I'm in agreement that because of the baggage Newt is not, nor should he be, the GOP standard-bearer.

But, having said that, I still think he's one of the best of the best when grading Washington pols, and it truly saddens me that he's "unelectable", when the likes of Bill Clinton are still admired and revered in many, if not most, circles.

[dragnet2]

Perry: I just exchanged feet in my mouth.
