These are some TOUGH questions.,p>To those wanting to be promoted to the status of POTUS, yes they are.

We need someone who doesn't focus on the questions at hand but focuses on the betterment of our country and shows that they can cut to the chase and laugh off the trivial questions and prove to all of us that they aren't concerned with anything else.

The prompting and constant drive to learn and know an answer to all special interests by politicians is getting quite sickening o me.

We need a leader, not a leader lead...

I missed the first 30 minutes or so...

Home run, out of the park on Gitmo, for Rommney.

[mylife]

And his “presence” is pretty good too.

[ErieGeno]

“Does anyone here actually like McCain?” As a candidate, no.

As a conservative, no....

As a republican, no.....

As a senator, no....

As a concervative, republican, President,,,,, hell no........

I’m afraid the 3 front runners are far more liberal than most of the 2nd tier candidates, and I hope a couple of the 2nd tier candidates move up a tier.

[DarthVader]

I have an even lower opinion of him now. He will now be referred to as Ron Gaul.

[Pyro7480]

Huh?

[NordP]

Yes. I CHEER Romney’s answer!

[Jake The Goose]

I hear ya

[Darth Republican]

My response Brit?

Let loose, the dogs of war!

[LdSentinal]

So, those people jumping to their death should blame themselves?

Rosie, is that you?

[txradioguy]

East and South Texas are odd areas in a very Red state.

Look at all the great Conservatives and Republicans we send to D.C. from Texas...but still have the CD of downtown Houston sending Shelia Jackson-Moonbat right along with them.

let’s liberate Cuba while we are at it

How about for not being Muslim?

And interestingly enough, these United States were able to exist while Islam had been around for nigh on 1200 years. With not one major conversion to Islam. Wonder why that is?

Romney: “Double Guantonomo”

[DCBryan1]

Shhh...talking about the second amendment makes you a disrupter.

No, talking about taking people's private property when its none of your damn business (and will get your ass killed in this part of the country) makes you a disrupter.

“Since Ron Paul thinks the US deserved 9/11,”

Your words, your personal projection. Not his.
