We need a new FR poll.

“Who won the first debate?”

I still think the results will be Hunter #1, Romney #2.

[Constitution1st]

I like Tancredo; the problem is he gets lost and seems forgettable. He needs to find a way to separate himself from the pack if he wants to go further.

[Chena]

If only Fred had been there too... that would’ve been something.

I agree! Can't wait to see him in a debate. He knows how to communicate and does it with ease.

National ID Cards???????? What are the Social Security cards and numbers, that in 1930 were NOT TO BE USED FOR IDENDIFICATION. Next they’ll want to implant a number on someone at birth.

“Tonight’s big winner:

FRED THOMPSON”

:)

[Choose Ye This Day]

Actually I only said it once to you.

[Mr. Blonde]

He had 30 seconds to say that government shouldn’t tell church what to do. Saying separation of church and state is the quickest way to say that.

“Of course. The media masters have to tell the American people that they didn’t see what they just saw.

Chrissy will have to explain to us ign’ant peasants what the Republicans REALLY meant.”

Yeah, we little country bumpkins could never understand with out the liberal elites.

re: Terri Giuli answer

People don’t realize that the Euthanasia Society had docs to take to 14 states... they were just waiting to take her out for precedent. No one will get it until it’s too late.

Just like 43 million aborted, yet we’re crying about social security and illegal immigration, all connected.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

RFOL - this is being replayed at 11:00. Click OFF MSNBC. What idiots.

[calcowgirl]

Knocked off my list of possibilities (or to the bottom):
• Paul
• Giuliani
• Tancredo
• TThompson
• Brownback
• McCain

Remaining:
• Hunter
• Romney (but seems to oily)
• Gilmore
• Huckabee

[NeoCaveman]

I think McCain won.

And I’m not a McCain fan.

[AmericanInTokyo]

The earlier "I will follow him to the Gates of Hell" bit was a little over the top, though.

You could hear the shocked silence right aftwards in the audience, you could hear a pin drop.

[Fudd Fan]

I do not like how Ron Paul approaches Iraq, tho. When he’s right he’s spot-on but he wanders into moonbattery too much.

[Reagan Man]

Your post at #940 does not contain the words of a conservative. Period!

You’re a liberal RootyBooster!

[acsrp38]

That’s what I said — they aren’t ducking hostile questions like the libs

[mylife]

W00W00!

[spectre]

Huckabee is very likeable. I should know, I voted for him more than once.

But never again.

I’d like to award Rudy the “deer in the headlights” award for his answer to the “Sunni/Shiite” question.

[Guenevere]

Drudge says Giuliani won, with Romney, Thompson following

I say....What is he smoking...?
Julie was terrible!
