“What if it turns out that the rumors are true”

It’s been how many years since OKC?
If they were true, someone would have run it down, by now.

The way Paul waves his arms looks like somebody is behind him. Then he goes spastic on the split screen.

Newt Gingrich won’t appear on Missouri ballot

*snip*

The former House speaker, who is putting a campaign organization together on the fly, failed to qualify for the contest in the Show Me State.

According to the Missouri Secretary of State’s office, Gingrich did not file the necessary papers as of Tuesday’s 5 p.m. deadline. That means his name will not be on the Feb. 7 ballot.

The filing requirements are not particularly onerous. A $1,000 check and some paperwork are all that’s needed.

“seems to be an effort to squeeze Newt & Cain out
Romney still gets more time then he needs.”

Yes, and it’s really starting to pi$$ me off.

I thought I heard Boos of Newt too.

Newt doesn’t look like a happy camper tonight.

Demanding more time...more questions...wants to play by the rules.

Well they set the rules out to start.

Agree. They might as well just call it the Gov Huntsman/Ron Paul debate. Obviously those two guys are the ones everyone wants to hear the most from. < /sarc>

Poor Herman Cain. Even when he got to answer his one and only question so far, CNN gave him a split screen with Ron Paul so we could all be distracted by seeing the old kook pulling faces the whole time Herman spoke.

I am getting sick of these debates if they aren’t fair..setting up “rules” the moderator uses or NOT whenever they pick favorites.

CNN promoted his 3 daughters before the show. This is entertaining tonight. CNN is trying to prop up Huntsman.

Wolf Blitzer sounds like he’s announcing fights on UFC championship nights.

I’m glad I didn’t know any of that before.
I’ll pretend you didn’t tell me.
Maybe Santorum’s ground game will show better results than indicated by the endless polls.

Exactly! Uncle Ron meet Uncle Martin.

Dopey Blitz, err Wolf just gaffed, of course we’ll just hear Cain’s soundbite all next week.

Well, I won’t because after this I won’t be tuned to CNN for another year or so.

All of the Perry Haters are REALLY concerned that he’s sweating? On his lip? Are they all swishy makeup artists in real life?

Rick is writing checks he WILL have to cash, soon. The rest are just writing themselves mention in the history books.

The Presidency isn’t theoretical to Perry. He already lives it.
