Republican Presidential Candidate Debate #10 – St. Petersburg, Florida 11/28/07 - Official Discussion Thread
CNN will hold this debate, hosted by Anderson Cooper, with submitted questions in video form via YouTube.
8pm ET/5pm PT
Hosted by Anderson Cooper
Candidates participating:
Romney strikes me as a guy who is in it for the power.
As opposed to types like Hunter and Tancredo who seek to further their causes regardless of who advances them.
When you see people like Romney steal positions and platforms like that it’s pretty clear.
The Youtube format is dorky. I turned it off out of embarrassment. What’s next? Chat room debates with smilie faces?
IF you do a ‘Net search, you find it is reported by a bunch of Paulbot websites but not by any credible news sources.
Then you need to look at this.

If you go to the actual data, what the Paulbots did was total up ALL donations that listed a branch of the US Military as their employer. They then misrepresented those as being donations from “Active Duty Military”. There no way to tell if these are from reservists, civilian employees of DOD or veterans. To claim these all as “Active Duty Military “ is factually incorrect.
It also intellectually dishonest. $24,495 raised from this source is hardly an overwhelming endorsement of Paul from “the active duty military” as was wrongly claimed by the Paulbots.
she looked like a white converted ‘muslim’.
It’s pretty clear that Rudy has no specific ideas about what to do about Islamic terrorism. I hear nothing specific.
Guns, abortions, Mexicans, and the Bible are much more important than our troops to CNN.
Good grief.

Hijab wearing muslim woman asking next. Image of America damaged in islamic world, how would you repair it?
Rudy: Stay on offense against terrorists. Most islamic people good poeple, should trade with them, blablabla, don’t engage in group blame....don’t blame a few who have distorted a great religion....can’t put head in sand like ‘rats. Rudy at least did say “islamic terrorism.”
Part of it funny, part of it stupid, IMO.
No doubt.
Sorry Rudy, I don’t think Yasmin was that decent...just call it a gut instinct
Rudy is for a literacy test to own a firearm. Sounds like Jim Crow lawman to me. He does not understand the 2nd amendment and he is a liar.
The question was a waste of time, a lame 'gotcha' attempt.
I think Fred's doing OK tonight.
Do the things we were attacked for?? did I hear rudy say that??
just listen to the mushy answers....
“”Love your neighbor as yourself...”
The Huckster means Mexico..yes, he does.
sw”
Ha,...he probably does, but The Word goes beyond Huckabee and still has meaning to me. The Right should feel that far more than the left, and not make it a government thing. Huckabee’s the wrong chose, but I wish we as the Right...embrace The Word...as individuals.
Sad but true, I cannot listen to him too much anymore.
