“Newt wins again.”
Yes, he won. We must have him to defeat Obama. Perry wasn’t thinking and speaking - he was only speaking what he had rehearsed. That’s one of his problems - he can’t think under pressure. I regret that, but it’s the truth.
Our country must be saved from destroying itself and I think Newt is the only answer.
Count me in as someone who does not think Perry has the mental firepower to debate Obama.
He looks rehearsed- sort of like Ted Baxter in the Mary Tyler Moore Show.
Obama would win in a debate.
We need to have someone who is mentally skilled for debating.
That is just how it is.
If you cannot debate, and look like you truly understand the subject without appearing rehearsed- you will lose.
Perry looks like he is parroting talking points given to him by his handlers.
Hi Marcella!
I'm not sure I told you, but I got to meet and personally speak with five of candidates at the after Tea Party, "party" in Tampa, after the GOP/cnn debate in September. Newt was one of the candidates, along with Governor Perry, Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain and Romney.
I liked all them very much personally, but Newt and I had quite an interesting conversation. I think he was at 3% at the time, and I told him I expected that he would go onto win the nomination! Of course that took him by shock, and he asked me why, so I told him. Remind me to tell you in FR mail...LOL.
I thought Governor Perry comported himself quite well tonight, but he did look rehearsed, albeit relaxed and more like the man I met! Rehearsal served him well.
They all did well, and by all I mean all of the viable candidates. I don't pay any mind to the Huntsman/Paul/Santorum who aren't going anywhere.
Romney got far too much time, as always.
