This debate much better than the MSNBC one, much better organized, more mature as mentioned before.

Ron Paul knows the constitution.

Most candidates did well. As a group they ‘tower’ over the Democrat candidates.

Illegal immigration discussion was better than none on MSNBC, should have at least been as long as Iraq discussion as Amnesty will be a big story in the Senate tomorrow!

The Big 3 are elites, to broad on Immigration, don’t seem to ‘zero’ in on the problems.

Hunter my favorite without Fred Thompson, I voted for Hunter in the Fox poll.

I prefer Fred Thompson................Overall

[Darth Republican]

The Fox call-in poll shows Paul on top. Do you think Demos flooded the results?

[SevenofNine]

Rack that photoshop now that one don’t get old ROFL

It much better ship with Chia Pet Godzilla and me

[txradioguy]

“Are you Harry or Nancy?”

I’m betting Murtha.

[Just Lori]

As far as the DEBATE goes, I think Romney won it.

[jd777]

Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

Who calls these polls accurate? I don’t pretend they indicate even his depth of support...but then, I don’t pretend they mean nothing as you’re trying so desperately to, either.

You’re just embarrassed that he’s getting into the national radar without the backing of the GOP you love so.

[M203M4]

For tonight’s performance, I concede that order. I’d take either, even over Fred.

People are upset with us because they are fed anti American propaganda 24/7. I spend time in Europe every year and you can’t BElIEVE the utter non sense the average person believes over there , not to mentioned the brain dead public we have here at home.

[No Blue States]

"What is your issue with Dr. Paul? You don’t like the fact that he wants to address WHY people are upset with us instead of just killing them all Bush style?"

When you get in a fight do you stop to figure out why or do you defend yourself? If its not the latter you already lost.

[REDWOOD99]

Cutie-pie? Isn’t that sexual harassment? It’s at least pastry discrimination.

[patriciaruth]

I’m for killing them all myself.

[Antoninus]

I gotta wonder if that little RonPaul-Rudy thing was a setup. It kind of smelled like it.
Wouldn't surprise me in the least. Two posturing primadonnas with nothing to lose.

[LibertarianInExile]

“the moment Ron Paul shifted to America an OUNCE of moral culpability for what was wrought on 9/11, we parted ways in our opposition to certain aspects of foreign policy”

Where would it be that he did that? I haven’t seen anything of the sort ascribed to Americans by Paul.

[FarRightFanatic]

The old crazy uncle Ron Dumball Paul is coming up. Nope, he’s on now.

[brydic1]

What should one expect when the audience voting is the same audience that watches and votes for those no-talents on American Idol.

[JerseyDvl]

Dr. Paul talks like Rosie O’Donnell.

[HoundsTooth_BP]

Ron Paul is against the entitlement\welfare state, the income tax, the massive bureaucracy that reaches into all our lives, the abuse of the commerce clause to over regulate, etc... He is for the application of the original Constitution.

[A message]

Would somebody gag Colmes. We have not been in this campaign for 5 years. Why can't libs add or be truthful.

I will support Hunter first of all the current candidates.

And now Paul is up with his surrender to Jihad policy.
