Newt is a salty old conservative warrior — just what we need in 2012!

Oh Yuck - Brian Williams.

Republican ‘BATTLE’, FIGHT - no applause allowed.

DECISION 2012 - The first “big” state to have a say in the Rep. primary. - according to Brian Williams

It’s a “critical” stage - according to BW - ?????

[Leep]

[show]

[Utmost Certainty]

Wtf, the audience isn’t allowed to applause?!

[glock rocks]

Is the debate on anywhere? I got Fear Factor in Utah.

[bigbob]

Ann sure had her panties in a wad on the BOR show tonight ;-)

[Red_Devil 232]

I don’t know, it is live on NBC - replacing a show called Fear Factor on my TV.

[ez]

Ha ha. Williams asks for no cheering from the audience. Trying to head Newt off at the pass.

[RitaOK]

Oh, good. I got the cup and the magnetic bumper sticker also!

[CASchack]

I can see smarmy Mitt just itching to take a (cheap) shot at Newt.

[Bronzy]

Thanks for all your help. I got it.

[Jane Long]

Good grief...Brian Williams calling for the seated audience to hold their applause and to be constrained. Pish posh...make Romney look good, eh?

FR slow tonight?

[sheikdetailfeather]

I am in Orlando and have the debate on NBC. My guide shows Fear Factor though and I have Prism TV.

[llandres]

TF - thanks for this thread!

My local tv guide didn’t show this debate, so I called the newsroom of channel 41 and asked if they were airing it - they said yes, it was added on at the last minute!!! I didn’t want to have to watch online, ‘cause I love these live FR threads :-)))

[sodpoodle]

What a stupid first question!!!!!

Thankfully, Newt turned around.

Oh here we go - on Newt’s resignation.

Newt turning it around again.

[kalee]

Preempting the standing O’s Newt would get.

[MissMagnolia]

She was acting like a woman who doesn’t wear panties!!
