None of the candidates stood out from each other.

“None of the candidates stood out from each other.”

Madame Rudy stood out as a deceitful, abortion-enabler.

If only that lightning had been the real thing.

Just a question, how come on the FR poll Brownback and Huckabee aren't popular? They both seem saner than at least Ron Paul.

Member Opinion
Fred Thompson 45.8% 266
Duncan Hunter 21.7% 126
Mitt Romney 10.2% 59
Rudy Giuliani 9.6% 56
Ron Paul 6.9% 40
Mike Huckabee 2.9% 17
John McCain 1.2% 7
Tom Tancredo 1.2% 7
Sam Brownback 0.5% 3
100.0% 581

Agreed but he stood on that issue long before the debate. I was using the glass half full as my base of comparison.

I like Thompson, but he needs to get a suit jacket that fits.

After Thompson finished answering a question about possible government aid to Chrysler, Matthews said, “Took a long time. He said no; he should have stopped there.” The remark seemed to cross a line; at the very least, it was not the sort of thing one normally hears from the moderator in these debates. Thompson responded, “In your opinion, Christopher,” and after it was all over, Thompson’s people unloaded on Matthews.

I didn't see the debate. Did Thompson, or any of the candidates, go after Matthews on the air? They would have scored points with a lot of conservatives if they had.

I'd like to see someone put that !&#@ Matthews in his place.

Yes! Right there in the quote you posted, Fred b*tch-slapped Chrissy Matthews, calling him “Christopher”. I’ll bet even slimy Keith Olbermann will be razzing Chrissy about that tomorrow, much less the regular pundits and presstitutes...

Sorry Bud- as you know I am a Fred supporter- he did about a B- because his opening was poor- closed well but nothing earth shattering. He will do better next time.

Thompson’s jacket was too big. He looked really tired too. I wonder if he’s up to all this physically. I like what he believes but he needs to work on his appearance.

Brownback is a bit shaky on immigration. He’s the consummate free-trader.

I don’t have a horse in the race yet, I’m still deciding, but face it FR is not the place to get a non-biased poll based on one’s performance at a debate. Those numbers are based on folks own pre-determined loyalties to their particular candidate, IMHO. They don’t like Huckabee because of his immigration stand, and I don’t know why Brownback’s numbers are low. Ron Paul is a joke, and I’m not sure who’s voting for him. My point, the poll on FR means about the same as any other internet poll...absolutely nothing at this point in the race.

”If we had done badly, I would have said these things don’t mean a thing,” ...... “But we did very well, so these things are very important.”

LMAO, well, of course you would. It’s the Fredhead way.

I bet the FR is probably more accurate than the ones always ballyhooed on TV and post-debates. At least the FR measures accurately how posters on here feel

Probably most important is that the pro-illegal candidates do not fare well on here. Good to see also that Duncan Hunter gets much support here...felt this was his best debate. Anyone who refers to China as “Communist China” gets my support.

Shaky on immigration may be kind in describing Brownback. He probably wants Kansas to become part of the United Mexican States.

Except for Hunter, the rest of the candidates seem to be extremists on free trade. Funny that Hunter can give specifics on how FT is failing....but supporters of FT cant give specifics on how it is working...just the usual “theory recitations” without specifics...of course this is the problem with many FT supporters

BTW...when I use “FT” I mean it as “Free Trade” not Fred Thompson. Next time I will use GFT for free trade (Globalist Free Trade)
