Michelle is easy on the eyes.

Good, practical answers. She knows what the folks out there are thinking; how they are suffering from Boy Obama’s policies.

Imagine their lengthy rehash (which will be on immediately afterward)

Thanks for that warning. Immediately after they say 'good night' I will turn the station and forget once again that MSNBC is carried by my satellite!

I wish Michelle had worn something other than black. She looks like the rest of the dudes on stage.

Huntsman’s amateur hour. I’d rather have Roemer.

“This questions are all FRAMED AS ATTACKS ON THE GOP CANDIDATES!”

EXACTLY! I think Gov. Perry is holding up well, though! That brief spar between him and Mitt was hilarious!

The candidates are doing well, why whine about liberal bias. If they can do well with biased questioning that would speak well of their abiity to confront Obama. Look at it as a gift the MSM is training them for combat.

Williams makes it sound like Paul should be shot with a tranquilizer and hauled off to the funny farm.

Williams isn’t good as a moderator. He’s trying to editorialize too much instead of just ask questions and ‘moderate’ the debate.

Huntsman’s fake tan matches his tie. And I read recently that Bachmann paid over $2K for THAT hairstyle. Her hair looks terrible.

Cain has such common sense. It’s early in the political season and anybody’s game right now. I am very much undecided, but he gets my attention every time he speaks.

“Anyway, I think I’ll just watch BOR. That’s how much I hate MSNBC.”

I know, I hate pmsnbc as well.

BOR, Sean and Greta will all be on again at 10pm, 11, and 12, respectively. That’s when I’ll check them out (in between Property Brothers on HGTV, that is :-)))
