And now Ron Paul taking cheap shots instead of discussing the issues. Ron Paul, who write letters attacking Ronald Reagan, is bringing up letters written by other candidates?

Paul mentally on a detour now.

He should be mandated to leave the stage.

Is there anyone here who would stay home on Election Day, or vote for Obama, rather than vote for any of the individuals on this stage?

Heaven forbid we should have a president like Ron Paul, that does not follow the globalist agneda. The nerve of Ron Paul wanting to follow the U.S. Constitution. Imagine actually abolishing the Fed Reserve, and stopping the bleeding of this once great nation. What would we do with our military if Ron Paul was elected if they were’nt invading soveriegn nations by funding and supportin al-queda as in Libya.

Paul makes false accusation that Perry supported Hillarycare. Bet they don’t let Perry respond.

Yeah, Huntsman has had a few good statements.

You know...I think most of the candidates are doing well tonight...except Ron Paul. He’s not coming off well.

Michele Bachmann is showing her lack of anything but legislation. It is all very technical and robotic, nothing personal she is able to add from real experience.

Not getting into it with a Perry-ite.... Don’t like the term and don’t feel I owe you squat to explain why... it’s personal.

“Newt understands that beating Obama is easy, it’s the MSM they are running against.”

EXACTLY. I’m hoping that the GOP candidates are on an email thread together somewhere agreeing what the priorities are....
