I loved Thomas Sowell’s editorial in our local newspaper this morning calling the debate a circular firing squad.

Michelle Bauchman’s screeching voice, at least for me, drones out her message. I doubt that any on-the-street person would even know what a VAT tax is and when anyone hears the word I am a lawyer- that is an instant turn off.

Romney is the world's smoothest assassinator with words of every candidate.

Santorum keeps pounding the drum about how many times he has won Pennsylvania. Did he forget he lost the last primary to a fellow republican?

And Perry, well Perry was just Perry. Great Governor but not meant to lead a Country.

Newt came out on top but I don't think he has the personality factor that is needed to develop passion in the voters.

Herman held his own but was getting so pounded by the others who didn't have a clue about his overhaul of the IRS. He should have done a better job of explaining his plan beyond oranges and apples.

I think that the debate only did one thing, maybe, and that was giving one last chance to those on the fence with Perry. And I think Perry lost those folks to some other candidate.

I am still a devoted Cain fan, but he needs to put in simple terms how his tax plan will work for America. JMO

Pretty good commentary on your part. To me, the 999 plan was attacked with first grade ignorance - but defended only partially. The apples and oranges analogy was a good start, but I wish Cain had fully explained what that means.

Bachmann made the only logical case against 999 - one that as a supporter of 999 I myself would like clarified - but it was lost in the childish food fight.
