LIVE DEBATE THREAD (Is it too early to start?)

[Red Steel]

Paul goes off the reservation. Makes false assertion that we wan to go to war. Actually Paul, we like to prevent war.

Paul rambling and rambling....

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Santorum agreeing with Romney. Nothing of his own to contribute, just talking a whole lot about very little of his own original content.

Romney trying to dominate the floor again, Santorum following his lead, getting low levels of approval from the audience.

Maybe they are starting to wonder, what ever was it that they saw in Santorum in the first place?

[jennychase]

Newt answers are the best.

Raul rambling is boring

[JimSEA]

Tuesday will indeed be an interesting day.

[show]

Ron Paul is a bleeding hearth stealth Liberal and doesn’t belong in a Republican debate.

Ron Paul is a stealth liberal. Yank him off stage already.

[Severa]

Gotta admit they’re hitting on gas prices, Iran and Syria a bit more than I thought they would on this one...

[NormsRevenge]

LOL.. Paul reminds me of Professor Irwin Corey.. or maybe it’s just me.. nyaaa

[pyx]

Oh my. Ron Paul has never heard of a brand new invention called a missile that would deliver nuclear weapons.

[rodguy911]

Great stuff. Keystone and Alaska alone are huge issues not to mention all the other 90% of drilling areas designated off line for drilling.No discussion,insane.

[CainConservative]

Willard Romney will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon, reminding us there were no nuclear weapons at the Olympics.

[matginzac]

Guess it’s good he’s not on the ballot in VA for the primary....you’d be busting a gut in the voting booth.

[eyedigress]

Ron Paul is an isolationist nut.

[Reily]

Well Paul at least for awhile tonight was running for the US presidency, now he is back running for the presidency of Iran!

[RitaOK]

Ron Paul has run Third Party inside OUR party. Plain and simple. I wore that on my tag line for months.

[Cato in PA]

I think it was more a matter of people didn't see. Keep Santorum away from the debates and you keep him from falling on his face and boring people to death.

[smoothsailing]

:o)

[GlockThe Vote]

Newt was best
Ron Paul second w reality
myth was ok.

Saint Rick got destroyed

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

[writer33]

Agreed. Ron Paul takes up good air time, and instead of actually debating issues we get the typical let’s watch them bicker with each other mentality.

[reasonisfaith]

Congressman Paul has shown a very serious defect in his understanding of the meaning of national defense. He thinks to defend your nation is to seek war for its own sake.
