Official CNN South Carolina Debate Thread

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Romney's right-wing platitudes of the night: "open up markets", "crony capitalism", "labor stooges"

Romney is doing MUCH better than earlier in the week... he still sounds like a broken Reagan doll, but this crowd should like it.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

WTF... I'm sure Santorum had a point... but it was deeply confused.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Because bloating the military gets us out of debt, right, Mitt?

It's ok, we'll bloat the military, cut taxes and make sure the job creators feel safe and secure in keeping as much of their money as possible... and the economy will right itself!!! Huzzah!!!

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Wow... Gingrich really is a pompous wind-bag...

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Surely... as a Doctor, Paul should be making commentary about the expense of prescriptions... yes, the Bush plan was largely ineffective... but the answer to EVERYTHING is not "liberty".

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

OK people, drinking game.

Every time Gingrich says 'Reagan' take a shot... see how long it takes to black out.

Plus those 16m jobs and the dissolution of the Soviet Bloc came about with a massive deficit...



Wow... Santorum

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Ooooh Reagan-based Gingrich smack-down...

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

He's trying to embarrass Gingrich... it's amusing...

"Reagan didn't take you seriously..." "I don't owe you for my success..."

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Um... did Romney say he didn't inherit from his Dad?

He's setting himself up for a huge fall on that issue.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Waaaaiiiitttt....

Aren't all of these Republicans about getting the Federal Government out of the economy... but they're going to impose a national right to work Act?

So it's fine for Washington to impose their own views on the economy if it's to protect the job creators and gut collective bargaining rights?... gotcha.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

As someone in socal, I just want to say FU Newt. Hollywood entertainment provides one of the greatest economic and cultural exports of the country and is something that cant be outsourced.

Other countries can't make movies about how the American military and American corporations are evil and are destroying the world? Sure they can. They might even be better at it.

Oh.... please

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Get in line for the fruit-picking jobs and we'll talk...

Um... I clearly missed the official government documents that are in Spanish...

Plus, Gingrich, a Former speaker of the House... is being so harsh about people he once had considerable control over, Federal Bureaucrats...

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Just started watching - can an unbiased person please tell me who's probably the biggest winners and losers thus far?

Santorum - generally strong answers, pretty aggressive
Romney - had a couple of strong moments, but then he got really tripped on the tax issue
Gingirch - less aggressive, more pompous, still relatively strong
Paul - useless.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

The Declaration of Independence isn't a legal document...
