I’m no fashion expert; but I think Romney needs to wash the grease out of his hair. A Presidential race has to be debilitating, and I feel sorry for all of them; but it does separate the men from the boys. It seems like to me that Romney’s been after this brass ring for so long that he has grown tired of it.
WOW - all Newt has to do from now on is just bring that up and enlighten the public every time Mittens begins to dog him on F/F.
Morticians on stand by....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Newt missed a chance to laugh at Mittens and say there you go again.
NBC is DESPERATELY trying to make this the “GOP IS WARMONGERS!” debate.
At least Obama and Hilary are in the right political party.
No, he did not. Newt was saying that American has never wanted to go to war but has only done so when it was necessary to protect our national interest.
I actually agree a little with Ron Paul ... not much, but a little.
I don’t believe in wasting money and manpower in the middle east.
I dont’ care who they elect. They are a primitive, cruel people we can never trust.
We should get out and concentrate on intelligence and if a nuclear weapon is found, we should bomb it after fair warning to the population to get out.
If anyone is truly interested, then they should do what Newt said. Go read about it on his site. No way NBC is going to allow him the time to answer, fully.
Romney does not have his usual self-assured, arrogant air tonight. His eyes look tired, a bit blood shot, suggesting he has not been getting a lot of sleep the last few days. It shows in his appearance. He looks tense and stiff. If this was the same Romney we saw in NH, he would be doing better.
Santorum is responding well on foreign policy, looks relaxed and self-assured, to his credit. Ron Paul sounds better tonight than last week.
Newt is holding up very well. He has a lot of Cuban support in Florida and this is gong to be important. He is doing just fine, no big problems tonight so far.
Nbc is pretty slick taking the audience out of the equation,really minimizes the debate all together.
With RP sucking up to Newt, I can see Paulbot heads exploding all over.
I think whoever wins depends on the ignorance or lack of it of the voters and whether they want to wade through details of financial records, ethics charges and rewritten history of the 90’s.
Just as I posted “I wish I had a mole in the audience” - you had posted a revelation you could have been my mole! Doggone it! If you find out from friends how they schooled the audience about applause during the breaks, please ping me.

Indeed....I’m thinking the “naughty librarian” scenario here...
