One of the melatonin supplements I took at night had valerian and other stuff.
To sleep...perchance to dream.......
Of a Palin Presidency!!!
(Bachmann is very impressive too, doing great in the debate. I HATE PAWLENTY! What a jerk!)
newt is doing a yeoman’s job with these guys and I don’t even like him
Paul always does good in these debates
I met him in South Carolina in 2008
Hes a gentleman and quiet spoken
Clapping for newt!!
Wallace SUCKs!
DITTO on the dog and the bell...he's going nuts
GO NEWT...HE SURE SAID A GOOD MOUTHFULL~
Ziiinggg! Go Newt!
Ah, so you’ll be responsible for the re-election of Barack Obama. Good to know.
Newt just SMACKED DOWN Wallace! I can’t stand Newt, but good for him!
I wish we had a conservative news station hosting these debates. Fox News has never been. And Chris Wallace will have to leave under cover through a secret exit.
Now that's the steely-eyed Gingrich I supported back in the 1990's.
Does Wallace have any conscience? He’s trying to defend something indefensible and Newt called him on it.
Wallace is being himself.
