[Political Junkie Too]

I think it's going to be eight simultaneous one-on-one debates between Wolf Blitzer and each Republican candidate.

Well its a rainy night in Georgia so I’ll ccok up some Tallapia and clams and watch the debate.

[TomGuy]

I hope Wolfie has some good, entertaining retorts for responding to Newt’s pilloryings of the MSM/host(s).

Thanks Kristinn for hosting tonight's thread.

the theme of tonight's Republican presidential debate is foreign policy and national security.

Anybody who panders to islamofascists and/or illegal invaders do not deserve my vote.

Maybe Ron Paul, who is a frontrunner in Iowa and New Hampshire, will get more than 90 seconds.

[Gator113]

I’d rather all of these were a Newt style debate.

[DoughtyOne]

It will be interesting to see what Blitzer pulls out of his bag of tricks tonight. To be honest, I thought his last M.C. job was perhaps the best of the M.C.’d debates so far.

It was head and shoulders above the other gotcha efforts by the various leftist media outlets.

DJ MacWoW - no TV but online I’m pretty sure?

This could be a tuff one for Cain.

***foreign policy and national security***

They should recommend the use of George Costanza’s philosophy; ‘the opposite’ of whatever BO has been doing.

Since they're talking about 'national security' tonight, this should be required viewing of everyone on that stage. In fact, this gal SHOULD BE on that stage...

SHE TELLS IT LIKE IT IS!

[Inspectorette]

What! No Gary Johnson!?! I think I'll boycott watching, and just follow along on the Live Thread ;-)

Thanks for posting it, kristinn!

I don’t have a telly — is there a link to where it will be streamed?

[truthkeeper]

Goody. I love debate threads.

OMG, did you hear the Huntsman daughters on CNN just now? They are Utah girls! Accent and persona - all! Perfect. Sorta like Valley Girls, twenty years later, with our goofy Utah accent. They support the unofficial Utah motto: "Welcome to Utah, set your watch back 20 years." Actually, though I dislike their father's politics, they seem like good people, and good daughters.

Really, compared to some other's daughters... don't make me mention names.

Question:

Do you believe that FReepers represent a cross-section of GOP voters - or are we akin to ‘family’ members discussing our favorite turkey stuffing?

Like Uncle Fred - who hates sausage and Aunt Deedee who must have chestnut dressing - or cousin Pete who needs oysters for Southern authenticity or dear old Dad who won’t complain as long as he gets his sweet potatoes?

Damn, I’m hungry;)

[ozarkgirl]

Hmmm, National Security Debate?

C’mon Cain, please do well!! I’m praying for you (if it’s God’s will) !

[Lady4Liberty]

When is the debate on social issues????? Notice when the media is pushing a RINO, they avoid it.

[Recovering_Democrat]

The debate is beginning. Thanks for this thread.

I say this: ANY OF THESE PEOPLE WOULD BE A BETTER COMMANDER IN CHIEF THAN HUSSEIN. EVEN RON PAUL.
