[Jane Long]

Eeeeewwww...Milt steals ideas and then turns them into a grinning campaign commercial Iccckkkkk!

[Irish Eyes]

I’m waiting for the big question about their favorite food.

Or maybe just going right to the "boxer or brief" question.

[icwhatudo]

Santorum B
Romney B-

[AnnGora]

Santorum going after Myth. Sic ‘em!

[Shortstop7]

I hope you are right. Santorum attacking Mitt’s healthcare...good for him.

Newt needs a strong finish to save this.

[katykelly]

I think she was a plant .

[bigbob]

Willard says Obamas SOTU was like “groundhog day all over again”. Was he thinking “deja vu all over again”?

In any case, he’s right. Obama could have just used last years speech and added “Oh, and I got Bin Laden”

[CitizenM]

Oh, I misunderstood you, sorry. I guess there is just too much going on to type, listen, and read at the same time. LOL. thanks for your reply. Good luck to all of us who want Zero out.

[riri]

He does not look well, IMO.

[MissMagnolia]

Santorum pounding Romney on Romneycare - go RICK. Newt will take flack on the mandate issue, but this issue sticks to Mitt, just as the Food Stamp President label sticks to Obummer.

[DollyCali]

[Doofer]

Well Santorum just gave up taking the high road.

[Hojczyk]

GOP are fools they should do town halls.. GOP voters only..check at the door...

[angelcindy]

So does sanboredem..

[Old Sarge]

"So let it be written..."

"...so let it be done!"

[Thane_Banquo]

I’m surprised that Santorum is showing that he actually has a personality. Where was this Rick Santorum before?

[rodguy911]

It takes Santorum to bring up Mittcare and now he is filibustering it he can’t talk like Newt does.Newt has a little over 40 minutes to pull this out of the fire.

[show]
