Livestream here.

[Cato in PA]

OK, this question is Newt’s to lose. If he can’t stand his ground here, I’m turning this off.

[Raebie]

Santorum looks like he’d rather be doing he tax returns.

Can’t say I blame him.

[onyx]

Medical records?

Get real!

Ron Paul has the great answer - 25 mile bike ride in hot Texas sun!

[Jane Long]

Get that there is NO difference between Obama and Romney. Nothing will change under Romney....so if he’s the nominee, I will bow to the establishment and remove myself from the whole circus.

George Soros agrees...zer eees no deeefarinse between Romeny and Obammie.

[Vendome]

Our vote is marginal at best inneffective likely.

Just write in your pres. pick.

[sissyjane]

If romney is the candidate, for the first time in my life I’d be for a third party.

[AllAmericanGirl44]

Great point

[Free Vulcan]

Newt fairly newtered the subject by his response that the media is hypocritical when it comes to Romney’s vicious attack ads on everything Newt.

[bigbob]

too bad Newt didn’t say something about releasing medical records as soon as someone else releases his birth and college records

[tcrlaf]

47 Million Americans on Food Stamps, Highest Average gas prices EVER, lowest New Homes sales EVER, and Blitzer insists on asking questions that have NOTHING TO DO WITH RUNNING AMERICA????

[mardi59]

I dare Blitzer to ask Odummy for his medical records.......crickets.. POS...sorry that was unladylike but this is making me sick!!

[AFPhys]

Romney “if I have an administration” !!!

Bad slip up.

[MagUSNRET]

CNN and ther media is doing EVERYTHING in their power to make certain NO issues are discussed that reflect badly on the magic Negro

[Danae]

WTF is up with the bunny foo foo questions???

Whats next Puppie, gonna ask about knitting next? Good grief these are BS softballs and or mudpatties thrown at fans...

[WalterSkinner]

..a stacked audience, a highly vindictive CNN, a ruthless Romney with millions to throw at the campaign and Newt being the target--if he can survive all of this, he will deserve the presidency...

[Sarah Barracuda]

Im still waiting for Obama’s college thesis, college transcripts, and LA Times Rashid Khalidi toast tape to be released..been waiting 3+ years

[AnnGora]

I agree the answer is cut spending. But NOBODY seems to be emphasizing that aspect.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

One of these “candidates” should mention that gasoline was $1.79 per gallon when Obummer took office on January 20, 2009.

[bgill]

I cannot imagine a more dislikeable twit than Mitt Romney.

There's Obummer but Mitt is up among the top.

[carmody]

Me too. I might write in Palin no matter who the nominee is.
