I agree with you on that.
It’s better in a venue like this than in a debate between two candidates fighting for the general though.
It showed the character of McCain and Huck, and the inability of Mitt to field a mild version of what will be slung at the Republican Nominee by the liberals, the Dem candidate and the MSM
At the beginning of this election cycle, I wanted Thompson to enter and be a great candidate. He isn’t. He can’t talk fluently and his words are disjointed too much. He can find fault with the others’ plans but can’t present a different plan in a coherant manner. Those of you who are fervently for him are overlooking these inabilities. Plus, he still seems aloof, like he is condecending to be there and it’s boring for him.
Romney was defending his various programs and didn’t hurt himself doing that.
I think Giuliani helped himself. He was articulate and sharp.
Unlike most of you, I thought Huckabee also didn’t hurt himself.
McCain, it seems to me, is always trying to hold back his temper. I can’t repeat what he called our Texas Senator John Cornyn in a committee meeting; it was a long string of filthy words. That is the true McCain. Tonight, it seemed like he would have liked to call Romney some of those names; instead he shot off some pointed verbal barbs toward Romney. I think McCain hurt himself tonight and I absolutely do not want him to be president.
