Cain isn’t even allowed to respond to Bachmann’s 666 comment.

This debate is the worst format. The questions are good but only Romney gets to talk.

[RedMDer]

[Darnright]

>Oh no, not the 666 crap. Oh Michelle.<

She sure wants to lose, doesn’t she?

[TheShaz]

THis debate is rigged to help Mitt

NEWT! SPEAK UP, THIS IS YOUR JOB! YOUR GOOD AT THIS!

[Husker]

We need idea guys/gals. I agree with no new taxes, but I’m not against redoing our tax code which could be called new taxes.

[World'sGoneInsane]

Yes, Newt is outstanding here.

[MattinNJ]

Huntsman is a tool. Perry is asleep. Romney is a fraud. Cain and Gingrich steadily distance themselves from the rest. Bachmann is doing well tonight.

[Bigtigermike]

I like what Newt says but can we trust him? He has a checkered past and I’m not talking about his personal stuff.

[Jim Noble]

Gingrich-Bachmann.

I’m locked in.

For now.

[Baladas]

I’d like to see one of these candidates do that. This format is sad, too many candidates in front of a liberal firing squad.

[GreenAccord]

This is no debate...its a set up.

I can't argue with that.

[GOPsterinMA]

If they asked him what time it was, he’d babble on for 5 minutes.

What a d-bag.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

I can’t believe how these moderators are interrupting the candidates as they are trying to answer the question. I’ve never seen that before.

Are the candidates debating the mods, or eachother?

Huntsman: “I got beat up in school”

LAWL!!! He is clueless on international trade and is probably funded by Chinese interests.

[Gator113]

Newt needs to break through.... from what I am seeing... Newt is who we need in the White House.

[DRey]

GREAT answer by Perry. There’s some fire there.

[County Agent Hank Kimball]

Hey, someone wake up Rick Santorum!

Hank

[Reagan69]

Yep. She had a good answer up that crack.

That’s the risk of the 999 — the sales tax. But it’s a risk worth taking. It’s actually NOT easy to turn into a VAT. Why? No VAT tracking now exists, but sales tax tracking already in place at every point of sale. For state and local sales taxes.

The bugbear of all bugbears is the OTHER two taxes — the individual income tax and the corporate income tax. Let ALL recollect HOW those got started — as replacements for a NATIONAL SALES TAX. The tax on alcohol. To get Prohibition passed the temperance lobby had to propose an alternative stream of federal revenue to replace the excise tax (a sales tax) on alcohol.

Newt is RINO elite, playing hardball ... in the tank for Romney.
