Newts path is amnesty no matter how clintonian an answer he gives which should be obvious to all.

Hope you aren't a Perry supporter because he wants to give work visas to illegal immigrants so they can cross freely back and forth over the border :)

Perry has a serious speech impediment

No it is a West Texan thing.

No, I'm from West Texas and we don't stutter/stammer. :)

I've visited with the Governor and he doesn't speak like this. I think it's nerves.

Round 7 (cont) :

Foreign Policy
Romney continues to defend the Palestinians.

Speaker Gingrich points out the importance of speaking the truth.

Romney can only lie and he points to this and that
such as how he knew Bibi. Romney is caught in web.

By contrast, the Speaker can tell the truth.

Michele Bachmann speaks well about this.
Flip flopper Rick Santorum, defending Romney, not so much.

HOME RUN, Mr. Speaker.

romney hitting Newt as “incendiary” making Newt a “bomb thrower...ie, crazy.

Newt comes back strong, “I will tell the truth”.
Bachman talking about “ I” went to Israel.

Sawyer is abominable. She just came from a cocktail party.
go back to the party Diane.

Now santorum jumping on the attack Newt deal.

It will be discussed now and later, should Gingrich get the nomination.

So why should Perry bring it up He is a self righteous creep for doing it when the country has way more pressing problems

Pathetic if that is his argument for electing him

I haven’t watched the debate yet, but just joined the thread.

Sometimes one gets skewed impressions on Free Republic, but I’m getting the impression that Romney has done seriously bad in this debate.

Anyone think this debate could put the nail in his coffin, drive a stake through his heart, or whatever needs to be done?

Yep, I was screaming the exact same thing at the screen as Mitt spoke - and Newt came back and said the exact same thing I was screaming. Good on him!
