“Hard to say what Mitt really believes.”

Mitt really believes he should be President. Beyond that....??????

Newt. The antidote to Romney. I will overlook his baggage.

Michelle gets an N+...for nuts.

999 upside down is 666...999 upside down is 666...999 upside down is 666...

Man, I used to like her but she's gone way past credible after her mindless, useless and idiotic comment to Cain. WTH...why attack a fellow conservative with something that infantile?

Romney LOST. He was a coward and did not answer anything.
Always hiding behind his skirt.

Winner: Mr. Cain and the Speaker A+++

Perry: flubbed it again.

I agree that Newt won.

Cain didn’t hurt himself but I don’t think he helped himself a great deal. I had hoped he would sell the benefits of this plan better.

However, there was little time and he was not allowed to answer every criticism.

I think Bachmann really hurt herself tonight.

Romney is just a lying scumbag politician.

The rest were just meh for me.

I will say though, that Cain is getting VERY positive response so that’s good to know

I agree but there is a lot of talk about a Cain/Gingrich ticket which I would personally love to see. Greta had only Cain and Gingrich on her show tonight. Interesting.

Some have posted there is a Constitutional impediment to a Cain/Gingrich team as they are from the same state. I don’t know that to be true for this situation, just passing that info along.

I don’t think this kind of format makes it possible to say who “won”. It was good in showing more personality and interaction, just not a win/lose thing. The moderator/questioners somewhat to my surprise were decent, the older woman from WaPo seemed fair, the younger chippie was clearly wishing she was hanging with a bunch of libs where it could be all smiles and softballs.

Newt is certainly opening the kimono and seems to not care what anyone thinks about his answers, which is refreshing.

Say what you will, but that’s just not Presidential...well, ok, maybe in a Clintonian sort of Presidential, but...oh, nevermind.
