If you will read about Romney, you’ll quickly find out he’s quite liberal. I couldn’t vote for him.

nope, it was VERY clear from the reaction of the focus group (despite Luntz attempt to manipulate) and the candidate answers that the conservatives are spot on.

Giuliani WEASELED big time when it wa REPEATEDLY POINTED OUT he is identical to hillary. NO DENIAL FROM HIM.

Fox News Dynamics polls should just be shut down. Just saw Chris Wallace try to use the “kerry wins” poll service again.

Except for Ronpaul, Huckabee, and Tacredo this debate was good.

I actually LIKED McCains comment about what he was doing while hillary clinton was celebrating the music and pharmaceutical festival.

Rudy was just on again during the debate rebroadcast. His response to the question of what he had to say about being compared to Hillary, was to ask in return, “Are you kidding me?”

No Rudy, we’re not kidding you. Are you trying to kid us?

“Mitty and Rudy have too many “canned answers”. Especially Mitt.”

Huh? All candidates have ‘canned’ answers. Mitt is just FAST. And he’s extremely smart and articulate. Great qualifications for a POTUS! GO MITT!

AHEM, I am a Hunter supporter, and like the rest I have associated with her, I do not hate Thompson, nor any of the others running. Not supporting someone, not voting for them or stating you won’t, even pointing out why..........none of the aforementioned, equals hate.

Then you have explained why Hunter is dead in tracks.

The PRE-Bate IS 100% an entitlement program. It will become an entitlement for the necessities of life the same way Social Security grew from a supplement to an outright pension.

I have read the Fair Tax Scam materials. It is the supporters who convinced me the it is a snake oil scam even worse than the nightmare we have with the IRS.

It creates a MORE INTRUSIVE governmetn agency. It is IDENTICAL to the result of the 1991 Luxury tax. We were able to EASILY bypas the clients purchases of yatchs and high ticket items through oversease sales and corporations.

It is INSANE to tack on an additional 30 to goods AND SERVICES. It you don’t think prices will go up then I have a bridge in broklin to sell.

Thompson has SPECIFICALLY said he see parts that might be of use but he does not support it as it exists.

Sorry but you have just answered why I don’t want hunter as a president if this is in fact correct.

I have seen the divide the enemy tactic in elections. You don’t need a stong showing in a third party candidate, just A showing. Huckabee creates the illusion. However huckabee HAS NO MONEY. He is a MSM and troll only phenomenon.

Yes, Huckabee is a DBM-pushed Arkansas troll.

I think the use of the Fox News Dynamics poll, given its 100% failure rate, is journalistically despicable.

Perhaps we should have one of those little Luntz groups to watch the media slimes as the conduct these debates.

Can we set up a real time doohicky to give postive negative only second by second fly here on FR.

“If you will read about Romney, you’ll quickly find out he’s quite liberal. I couldn’t vote for him”.

WRONG. I’m very familiar with Mitt Romney’s record. He’s very conservative and has exemplary family values. If Mitt does as great a job as his dad did as governor of my beloved home state, then he will be a great POTUS!

Yes he is trying to kid us.

the Fox News Dynamic poll point was correct though.
using that poll as any source material for a question is journalistic malpractice.

That’s an interesting suggestion. It would be a hoot to observe. Send Jim a note. BTW, I agree on that Luntz’s presentation. It was poor.

O’Reilly is now saying he wishes we’d left Saddam Hussein in power and Salman Pak open for training jihadists. While Hannity is using his radio and television programs to champion the most liberal candidate in party history, in a primary, against a field of infinitely more conservative candidates.

O’Reilly and Hannity are the clearest examples of how “cultural hegemony” works, and how it’s destroyed journalism (among many other things) in America. And of course, they don’t even realize it’s happening to them. Which is exactly how it’s supposed to work.

Shenna, do you consider the state run healthcare plan to be a conservative move?

I’ve been responding to so many thoughts, could you expand on that a bit. I’m not quite sure what you’re referencing.

Why does Hunter have to be on the ticket ? I doubt it will happen , but i’m curious as to why ?

No tort reform is about keeping shyster lawyers from blackmailing physicians malpractice insurance companies to make settlements simply to save money in defending doctors. It’s like a lottery for these POS attorneys and drives up the cost of medicine. Would you like to give me a few examples of any POS malpractice lawyer who saved a life? I wish these guys could have made it into medical school and they wouldn’t screwing up our health care system.
