If you read on I tried to point out it is how they developed their take on the debate. It was more on the analysis of the CBS story itself. Who is winner or loser can always said to be subjective here.

CBS after all is unbiased and objective.[sic]

Perhaps, Take the time to read the rest I posted below including pics, and you get what I was trying to accomplish. Thanks

That's why I posted no snark intended (toward you)

It's CBS I could care less about and that was before you posted the rest with pics etc.

Huntsman needs to be dropped immediately and Santorum isn’t going to catch on either. He’s running as a defeated and out of office, former US Senator. I get it.

This photo was added for a reason? I had to redo this one:

Huntsman: [shot at an angle]Michelle "comes up to about here"..
Cain:[scowling] "I know what you are trying to say with that hand gesture, you.....!"

CBS, true to ii ts far left form, places the front runner last? They are as easy to read is Dick and Jane books!

All the candidates did well last night, though they were all flying by the seat of their pants, never really having had a thing to do with Foreign Policy.

At least Mr. Cain was perfectly honest about what he would do about Foreign Policy when he was deliberately hit with a heavy question first off in the debate. And once again, Herman Cain was right. After that he was virtually ignored by the moderators. Mr. Cain failed at nothing!

Romney actually stumbled over his own words twice. Pantie waist Perry boasted about his military service while Herman Cain never mentions his delicate missile work for the U.S. Navy!

In the CBS piece today, they continue to belittle Mr. Cain’s hugely successful record. I think it is high time all voters read “This is Herman Cain”. A very revealing and readable book now available at Costco for $l4.70.

To support the man who should be president, please send your generous checks to:

Let’s keep Herman on top of the heap! Thank you.

Scott Pelley cut Michele Bachmann short...I don’t remember if Major Garrett asked her a question but Pelly was clearly hunting for conservative kill. I would really like to see the sort of debate Newt is asking for, an hour or two with Obama. Were I one of these candidates, I would in the future demand moderators who have no agenda and do not work for a left biased company.

Puddleglum I have to agree with 98% of what you said....Bachmann and Gingrich are the most articulate and focused while Romney seems to stir up his thoughts and words stumbling out all over his delivery...is this man ‘plastic’ or central casting...I can’t figure him out.

“Newt Gingrich: For one of the most substantive debates of the campaign, Gingrich’s depth and command of the issues allowed the former speaker to shine.”

The winner by a mile..... Newt 2012

Ron Paul was given 89 SECONDS of the 90 Minute debate. Regardless who you vote for that is a travesty.

We don’t need CBS to tell us who won the friggin’ Debate or how the candidates did. We’re smart enough to figure it out for ourselves.

Then they said Paul was the third best in the debate! That must have been a humdinger of an 89 seconds.

89 Seconds all while audience cheered. I am glad CBS held the debate since it fully exposed the true bias.

According to headline on Drudge, Ron Paul got 89 seconds of time in the debate and came in 3rd in this analysis but only Santorum and Huntsman are mentioned as not getting much time to speak.

I'd shuffle the order a bit, Newt above Mitt, Bachmann swapped with Paul for example, but the analysis isn't far off in my view.

This was a critical debate for Cain and he did nothing to answer those rightly worried he isn't serious about policy detail, particularly in foreign policy.
