I had no clue. Then again I don't watch Fox News.

It's on Fox News at 9 PM. I guess we can use this as the debate thread.

Yes. Nobody seems to care much but I'll check it out. I like scoping out the enemy and the buzz seems to be that the other candidates are going to go after Giuliani big time tonight.

I wonder if it'll be just like the last one, except with the word "Reagan" replaced with the word "Falwell".

I thought people knew.  We just had a thread about John Cox suing to get into this debate a couple of days ago.

Yeah, I found out while watching Matthews tonight. Seems like it isnt going to matter much though, other than as A lose-lose for the big candidates (If they blow it it will be talked about, if they do good no one cares)

I just sent the following debate question to Fox News (it wasn't gonna be used anyway):

To Mr. Brownback, Tancredo, and Huckabee:

"Do you believe in genetic mutation?"

So far, it's been a better debate than the MSNBC one, that's for sure.  Except for one or two questions, there hasn't been any softballs thrown yet.

This is better than the other GOP debate; it seems like the candidates are getting more equal time, not just all Romney.

Paul is doing much better in this debate.

Huckabee got the best one liner so far with that Edwards joke.

Yeah, that was a good line.  That was a good question to Gilmore too.  "Call them out."

Rudy is doing poorly and filibustering a lot.

McCain seems nervous and told the same "drunken sailor" joke he tells all the time.

Romney seems even more fake than usual.

Tommy Thompson seems constipated again.

Huckabee is doing fantastic.

Ugh, McCain had to resort to Islamic extremists to defend McCain Feingold.  Roll Eyes

Huckabee really seems to be owning this thing. Am I wrong?

Not really, but many of the second-tiered candidates have been doing much better than the top three.
