Totally agree. I almost wonder if they agreed ahead of time to keep the focus on our current problems.

Perry looks much better tonight,too bad it took him 8 debates to catch on!!

[Hoodat]

Exactly. With several candidates in the race, Romney can keep a plurality of the vote. But as the field thins out, it will be his opponents that gain supporters. In a two-man race, Romney loses.

[ken21]

cain’s looking strong.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

And Perry is doing better, more controlled...and he can’t cop out by getting into a b fight with Perry.

[mylife]

8 debates?

[kempster]

Huntsman has as much chance in this race as I do. On second thought I might have a better chance. He is so bland. I’m just sayin’.

[onyx]

Yes, I agree with you, discounting Romney and Hunstman of course.

[bigbob]

I caught that too ;-) But Cain needs to be a little more flexible and hammer the question first, I’m hearing a little too much talking points

[StarFan]

Actually, I think all the candidates look good tonight. Seems like they’re staying focused on grilling Obama but good. Nice to see them not attacking each other.

Couldn't agree more, thank goodness. Perhaps they finally realize the MSM is looking for blood in the water, not answers to silly questions.

[rodguy911]

Leisman is a joke. Take away his laptop and he becomes obama...

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Huntsman gets back-to-back questions?

I think they’ve only let Santorum speak once so far.

[TSgt]

Cain is making me proud.

[SueRae]

I honestly don’t think that was a diss, several canidates mentioned that. In the interest of time, he just said’someone’ Maybe he should have said ‘others’ have mentioned it.

[catfish1957]

Huntsman may be the most left wing republican I have seen since Nelson Rockerfeller

[bobby.223]

Perry vrs. Perry?

[Pan_Yan]

Everyone that understood Huntsman’s answer raise your hand.

Governor Huntsman, I see that your hand is not up.

[newzjunkey]

Huntsman wants to charge banks fees to mitigate tax payer’s risk. WHAT?! Those fees will just go to their depositors! He wants to “right-size” banks but won’t say how.

[M. Thatcher]

Yes. Huntsman has GOT to go. Get the hook!

[Newton]

"From the tones of the questions these mods are asking, they are the dumbest people in the room."

gotta agree with you there.... and I've noticed looks on some of the candidates faces they think so too....
