Bachmann says she's 55 years old and has spent 50 years in the private sector.  So I guess she was a private sector baby?

Bachmann is 55 and has spent 50 years as a businesswoman? So she is counting her lemonade stand when she was 5?

Right now, Mitt looks strained and Newt looks jolly. That could change, but for now, he's in a better position to loose his cool.

lolololol.  Okay comeback.  Newt scored a solid hit, though.

But Romney's line won't be replayed a 1000 times like Newt's will be.

Right, right.

Oh, this is a fun debate.

Newt and Romney did pretty damn well against each other.

Then Paul hits Newt and he apparently just tapped out and backed off. Go figure.

Newt's humility is just so refreshing.

Perry cites a study? WHAT IS THIS? Of a libertarian organization, of all things.

For Perry, attacking the unlikable frontrunner (Romney) rather than the likable frontrunner who is  better at debating (Gingrich), might be a very wise strategy.

The debate seems to be between Mitt Gingrich and Rick Bachmann.

I wonder when they're going to tell Diane that we can hear her whispering.

Mitt offering a 10K bet to Perry doesn't do well to make him a common man....

Romney's rich so he can throw around 10,000 bucks.

This makes me not like him.

Just dropped in.  Newt must be loving a nonfactor like Perry attacking Romney for no reason.

Yeah, I thought that was really stupid too, especially given that Romney's fortune is so much larger than Perry's, and that Perry likes to play up his origin as the "son of tenant farmers."
