Yes I agree. But She is not on the stage...yet. Of the people who are... the only one who looks like he can handle things is Newt. Scary.
LOL!
Perry is a loser
Palin 2012 or bust
Personally, I think Bachman and Santorum looked totally political with their hysterical rants.
Can someone remind me how many kids got the inoculation?
I am. Perry isn't infallable, nor are the rest. Michelle did a great "gotcha" moment.
perry just got rombot.
Bachmann is over as far as I’m concerned.
...or carrot juice.
He wants to be the first orange president.
Newt has a place... but I’m not donating my money to Newt. That’s kind of the issue.
I dont know but I question them as well.
“I think Huntsman is the Anderson Cooper candidate...and yes, you may quote me”
You mean, he mistook the Tea Partiers for Tea Baggers and begged to be there?
Pretty good analysis I would agree with most.
For the love of GOD>..these idiots need to go after OBAMA not each other!!!!!!!!!
Rick just cut to the chase for Ms. Bachman. ZIIINNNGGG! DENT management Michelle.
Sorry, but every time I hear Cain say “my 999 plan” it sounds like a pizza deal.
Because HPV isn’t airborne and highly contagious like all the other vaccines.
Perry just got hit bad with the Gardasil deal. They took it to large government and hurt him.
