And then there were three and a half minds left campaigning for the Republican presidential nomination: Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul.

Link to CNN livestream page.

Hosted by CNN's John King at the North Charleston Coliseum.

Here Santorum is better - and right about the way that Obama will attack Mitt as wellas Newt on healthcare.

[show]

John King is trying to stop NEWT’s applause by quickly starting another question.

Watch John King whenever Newt hits another Grand Slam... he immediately starts talking over him .... John PUKE King is a Corrupt Liberal Democrat moderating a Republican DEBATE.

JOHN KING IS A DEMOCRAT OPERATIVE.

Santorum just handed Milt his balls over RomneyCare.

Nice Riccardo!!!

Thanks For Nothing Willard.

[Reddy]

Great job, Rick! Show us some more spunk like that!!

[Anti-Hillary]

Gotta give it to Santorum on the health care question

“Actually... scratch that. If it’s Paul. I’ll not vote at all.
“

Well, you fooled me. You had the Paulite talking points about Newt down pat.

[eyedigress]

It really is. Newt explaining all that is wrong with liberalism, whether they understand it or not.

[Liberty Valance]

*s l o w bump*

[bray]

He did great going after Mitt but died when he went after Newt on the mandate. He is about to get spanked while looking snippy.

[Bronzy]

Tennessee suffered from TN-Care. It almost bought them a state income tax.

[RitaOK]

SANTORUM is getting into that Bachmann II mode again. Too loud, too long, too desperate for an applause line and praying for a standing O. What a cranky nag he becomes sometimes.

If I’m not mistaken, Dolly turned 66 today. What a talent.

[jwalsh07]

Santorum took the scalpel to Romney and Newt on healthcare mandates.

[CASchack]

Romney continues to blather on....I guess he’s trying to run out the clock.

[pulaskibush]

Santorum talking about legislation written on healthcare, something more important than all the Ex-Wives of the world #CNNDebate #scdebate

[Pravious]

Little Ricky is STILL a boring, sanctimonious little Boy Scout... and, no, I DON’T want a boring President. We need a leader. Not this self-important fool.
