He wasn’t going to engage because he would lose in a direct fight with Newt on this one - he’s letting his surrogates do his attacking while he stands back and tries to look like he’s keeping his hands “clean”. Reagan was beloved and Romney doesn’t want to kick any hornet’s nests.

“Can Cuba be sunk?
No, but it’s an island so it can be tipped over”

If we can just persuade the population to run to the eastern side of the island...

Disagree. Give Cubans Iphones and the Internet and Castro will fall in a week. Keep doing what we’ve been doing for 60 years and we’ll get what we’ve been getting for 60 years.

“Man, I hope Florida sends Mitt slithering back to his home.”

I don’t think that’s going to happen, now. After tonight, and all of the negative media, I think it’s over.

Wish it was different, but there it is...

Newt leaves a lasting imprint of the force of Reagan Revolution on stammering Mitt

Sadly, the electoral process is pretty irrelevant. The plan is for Romney to be the nominee so that Obama can get a second term.

Your vote doesn't really matter.

Romney claims he never voted for a democrat when a republican was on the ballot.

And yet openly admits to choosing Democrat ballots in primaries.

Romney also DID NOT DENY Newt's charge Romney was behind the "Newt hated Reagan" pieces appearing today.

Well, Wolf, I knew Reagan in the ‘80s, I rented Bedtime for Bonzo once, I was a big fan of that movie.

Me too.

Reagan was twenty years ago.

The world has changed tremendously in those two decades.

90’s solutions would not work today.

On Free Republic, it’s nobody but Newt.

Sure it’s anti- Zero & Romney. But Free Republic is a Pro- Newt Gingrich website.

We want Newt Gingrich to win the nomination and to be the next President of the United States.

I can see a great Newt ad here: Romney - the blind trust, out of touch Presidency.

My rating so far...

1. Santorum. Clearly the best answers. Not afraid to attack Romney. Seems to be speaking from the heart. But I STILL won’t vote for him, STILL don’t like him, and STILL am not fooled for a second into thinking he has what it takes to be President.

2. Newt - Mildly hot, but not on fire tonight. WAY better than his sleep-walking through the last debate, but not nailing Romney the way I wish he would. Perhaps he doesn’t want to come off as “angry”... but he’s not the Professorial lecturer-in-chief that he’s been on his best debates.

3. Ron Paul - His usual self. A couple of refreshing answers, off-set by his usual wacky blathering.

4. Mitt Rommey - The more I see him, the more I dislike him. I won’t vote for him if he’s the candidate. I’ll join others here and write in Sarah’s name as a protest vote.
