It’s like a bad soap opera or reality show.

Let's start a betting pool on how many times Perry pauses for no apparent reasons or starts to lose his train of thought and wander off the track. I'm looking at the debate schedule and he should be okay for the next two at least - they aren't too far past his bedtime.

How about counting how many times Cain flip-flops?

Honestly, I felt sorry for the man. He seemed way over his head. I don’t see how anyone could think his performance was worthy of positive mentioning. I think he would get clobbered by Obama in the debates...and I don’t think Obama will do all that well. Now, Gingrich on the other hand...that would be something to see.

You know Perry has been nothing but respectful of all the candidates except Romney. This ridicule of Perry by some on our side with no real reason to vote for their candidate makes me think even more that Perry will win the nomination.

Mocking and trying to tear down Perry on a personal level is worthless. I listen for plans and ideas and who seems most likely to implement them.

Cain has nothing but a good personality.

I have no idea what Mitt will do.

i don't know if Newt will succumb to the old Washington ways once he's there.

I know Perry is serious because he's spent the last 12 years dealing with unfunded mandates and Washington sticking their nose in states business. I actually believe Perry will do what he says. He may be rough around the edges, he's not a professional speaker. He may have some cheesiness to him, he's never run for President, he's from outside Washington.

Well, when trying to present info and Mitt keeps cutting him off with accusations - did you want him not to pause and address the accusations lest the audience believe the known liar Mitt?

Remember - Mitt’s not doing that to any other candidate. How he held his cool when Mitt put his greasy hand on his shoulder I have no idea. I have no dog in this race - Palin raised the bar too high - and I can watch the debate with no desire to cheer any one candidate on - and can see what is happening with open eyes - not wishful eyes.

Cain should have gone after Mitt and asked him for his plan - if he can’t present one - what he says about his plan is null and void so don’t waste my time with your wild accusations - your mittcare already tells us enough about you and any plan you would have. Sorta of ‘either put up or shut up’.
