I was a private businessman.
Obama was a terrible debater. He got better with practice. Perry will too. He’s already so much better tonight than the first one.
A very very painful answer. Perry didn’t help himself there. He’ll be cussin’ that one all night long.

Romney
“THeres lots of reasomns not to elect me”
Oh YEEEEAHH
Yeah and it really ticks me off.
Romney is trying to pull a Reagan with his “nice try”
“There he goes again”
Don’t be fooled
Romney is winning this debate without a doubt.
Perry needs to emphasize that more strongly. People aren't getting it.
Bachmann brought the same issue up about ten days ago and Perry explained it. Looks like Michele didn't get it.
Romney said, “There are a lot of reasons not to elect me...”
Tell me that won’t be isolated,and used in a DNC ad.
Can we get a new slate of candidates somewhere? Costco? Walmart? Sheeeshhh....
I agree with you. He doesn’t seem well coached or prepared on some of these questions. Romney thinks must faster on his feet.
Yes. We should elect palin. Oh, wait. She’s NOT RUNNING!
ok...understood...but we have to stop this or we’re done...between the Mexicans coming here...many who are from central American and south american as wwell....and the muslim’s infilitrating and NOT assimulating...we will not have the country of the home of the free and brave...it’s going fast.
