LOL to you guys. Newt Gingrich dominated with his response on his consultants spending the money and the super committee and the crowd was with him, remember a crowd that was booing and gave him negative approval ratings. If anything this is the turnaround because we're seeing the real Newt tonight who's intelligent, pissed, and knows the issues.

And Santorum taking on Paul and Bachmann, that was impressive.

Newt just found Brett giving another gotcha question.

If he wants to get people to actually understand his position he does in fact have to lay out all his progressing interviews

He was a great Speaker, and is very smart. But he is a awfull campaigner and debater, and Wallace and him hate eachothers guts at this point.

I agree that he sucks campaigning, but not debating And yes pissing off Wallace doesn't help, but what the heck does he have to lose now?

[California8429]

Paul wants us to be friends with Iran...interesting...

[California8429]

I understand Paul doesn't want us to waste billions in other countries affairs, but does he have no conscious about political prisoners, about citizens being tortured by their governments with no way out?

Why should we care when are own citizens are dying of hunger here!

I understand we have problems, but that doesn't mean we should never care about human beings being killed for wanting to be free or oppose a tyranical government around the world. We shouldn't have a blind eye to the world. If we don't have compassion anymore than our nation is truly in trouble.

[California8429]

Ron Paul has lost all credibility in my eyes. To simply not care about people who are not already citizens in our country at all no matter what is just terrible morally. The least we could do is follow Reagan co-op wars, pushing for their own people to take control of their countries, not setting a foot in it, but letting them know that someone in this world is with them in a quest for freedom.

[California8429]

SEXIST GEEZ!

[California8429]

Mitt is floundering. LOL.

^ So much for the media saying he "doesn't need to shine" because he's done worse than that/ Especially responding to T-Paw on RomneyCare, that was WEAK. "There are differences" great...details?

Jon Huntsman: Outsourcer

He should have set it up to blame it on the US have terrible economic conditions and talking about what he'd do to change this. It's a fact jobs went overseas, use it yo your advantage Jon

[California8429]

I love Santorum vs Paul

[California8429]

I agree with Jon Huntsman.  I don't want public schools seceding from the union.

just what i was thinking lol
