Let’s make Romney Newt’s space monkey.

[bray]

Mitt would give you Romneycare.

[ez]

Romney turns very question into an attack on Newt.

Exactly. That is making him look petty and mean. Mean old rich man. Romney should have gone high road.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Newt great response to question. Attacks Obama at the same time.

[bgill]

Romney - F

Newt good on health care. Get the economy going so she can get a job and can buy her own health care.

Uh oh, Romney is back on his “I agree with Newt” that he was in SC. All the while ignoring his own MittCare.

[Biblebelter]

Newt gave a good answer on insurance. His best answer so far.

[Red Steel]

Mittens A+ BS’er

[Jane Long]

Ha ha...Miss Buffalohide lady....

Newt sez....Get a job...take care of yourself...get off the welfare state.

[Raebie]

Romney is a snark
___________________________

I think the scientific term is ‘snarkapotomus’.

[Leep]

Paul needs to keep sucking up the crazy vote in the caucus states..haha

[show]

Newt is an A

Are people watching the same debate? Newt is interesting and brings real solutions to every question that is asked.

[CASchack]

Newt is on top of his game. He’s taking some flak, but overall is doing well.

[angelcindy]

Willard goes from one topic to the next without even breathing...God

[rodguy911]

If you notice real closely,every time Newt answers a question woof woof tries to cut his applause off by asking someone else a question really quick,waaay too quick.Worst bias I have ever seen.

[kabar]

Santorum is really on his game. Big winner so far. His answers on immigration, latin america, taxes, etc. are informed and on point.

[onyx]

Newt is doing fine tonight.

Romney has the auduence stacked.

[Fawn]

But mittens-—you can’t make insurance companies give the same rates to individuals as they do to companies. Sounds good, but who are you to dictate that????

[bgill]

Rick - good bringing up RomneyCare.

[Irish Eyes]

I’m waiting for the big question about their favorite food.

Or maybe just going right to the "boxer or brief" question.

[wolfman23601]

Romney: I will fulfill Obama promises. Good grief.
