Exactamundo. Newt wins in FLORIDA.

Love your optimism he is drawing the crowds and the Tea Party in Florida endorsed him.

"Loved the move the embassy to Jerusalem comment"

Great answer. Yep, Newt needs the 100 Republican Jews in Florida. LOL.

Mitt is human garbage.

Well, ok, I’m not so sure about the human part. But he’s garbage.

[Fawn]

Good call.....(yawn)

Wow! Again Romney seems to have a well prepared answer...this time to the religion question. He even seems to have gained a little knowledge about the history of the founding fathers and the role of religion .. sort of like steeling Newts thunder. No doubt in my mind he had the opportunity to rehearse some of these questions.

-- Mitt responds God Bless You, I'm a Mormon and I wear magic underwear. -- Bachmann's response: "Hi, welcome to the USA, my name is Michelle, I'm not from Poor-Too Rico, but I do have 23 foster children."

All good answers on religion from Santorum, Newt And Romney on rights and where they come from.

[sheikdetailfeather]

Santorum on his game tonight!

[AllAmericanGirl44]

I agree 100% - some things are timeless ~

[show]

But that’s why Romney comes off even more fake. He’s too rehearsed and he’s had many of the questions in advance.

He can’t fake hat he didn’t he hasn’t written out the answers which is why he is coming off as fake. Romney is losing this debate big time.

[tomkat]

RS just absolutely hammered the God/rights issue .. sounds like a FReeper !

[M. Thatcher]

Mitt had his best debate tonight. He’ll make a fine President. Sorry...

Mitt is beyond repulsive.

[newzjunkey]

Was that only asked of Santorum? Did I sleep through the answers from Newt, Mitt and Paul?

[Revolting cat!]

Santi walks away to take a leak.

[kevao]

At least we’re not spending 30 minutes on gay marriage.

Wolfie hasn't finished yet....

[Velveeta]

“Faith has everything to do with it”

WOW, Santorum knocks another one out of the park.

[Reagan69]

I believe he will squeak it out.. (I live here, just my feeling.)

GO NEWT !

[writer33]

Yes, sir. His loyalty is one of the things that gets him in trouble. As a Senator from Pennyslvania, some of his votes were shown in loyalty to the constituents that put him in the office. And as POTUS, he will be as loyal to those constituents.

But aren’t you supposed to scream at me over the internet while inserting multiple exclamation marks in your sentences or using all caps like this. HOW DARE YOU ASK THAT QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL!
