Republican Presidential Candidate Debate #15 – Myrtle Beach, SC 01/10/08 - Official Discussion Thread
Watch the Republican presidential primary candidates debate in Myrtle Beach, S.C., live on FOX News Channel and FOXNews.com at 9 p.m. ET.
I think you are right about that.
Fred wasnt all that impressive overall, but he did CHANGE the tone of the debate early on.
People seem to have responded to that.
And he never said “change” L0l
How could anyone watch the force of facts and leadership on display in this group of men and even CONSIDER voting for Obama, Clinton or Edwards is totally beyond me. These men live in the REAL WORLD. Democrat debates inhabit a fantasy world of socialist dreams and vague soundbites such as "change" that signify NOTHING.
This debate made me so PROUD to be a REPUBLICAN!
Paulvestites non member opinion hitting it hard. Time for the member opinion to put them in their place.
I am not for Huck or Romney, but it is amusing to see Huck taking heat for affirming the New Testament guidelines concerning marriage and giving Romney a pass. Hasn’t anyone read up on what Mormon marriage is all about?
People are straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel.
Go to Fred028.com and Make some calls into South Carolina.
Good picks!
You need to be in Human Resources.
Who do you think would be good at totally reorganizing and dismantling the culture at the State Dpt.?
Some have tried and failed.
Fred will win SC now. He hit a HR tonight and the rest of the candidates are in deep trouble. The Thompson campaign has said all along that they needed to get SC and then survive until super Tues. This is going to be a tidal wave of momentum. New ball game boys and girls.
There is a McCain-Thompson corrupt bargain.
Back it up with facts.
Paul does three things in the debates:
1. Yes, he makes everyone else look good (and sane too)....
2. Provides entertainment value and ratings--NOTHING MORE, certainly nothing of substance....
3. Provides mbarrassment for the Republican Party.
He has no business there as he makes you cringe everytime he opens his mouth.

Secretary of defense.
Dang, I was wrong about Luntz’s group. Well, except for the lady who thought Fred was too flip. Fred won big, and I thought the Huckster fumbled around a lot.
“SHOUT away!! Off to contribute to Fred now!! Come on Freepers!”
I just did 10 minutes ago,....
IF THE MSM WON’T SUPPORT HIM, WE HAVE TO SHOW THEM THEY AREN’T THE BOSS...WE ARE! DONATE TO FRED!

During MR’s “I’ve talked to people, and these are the things they want, that haven’t been done”, I thought I heard him say they want everyone to have health care, Government health care (universal?).
Perhaps I didn’t catch what he said properly.
Anyone catch exactly what he said in that segment of his about health care?
What do you guys think about Ron Paul as VP?
We can get all the nuts and young voters he has on our side. He won’t have any power to make any decisions anyway. lol
Good for you.
Pray everywhere and anywhere!
Mitt is just going in a loop ... nothing new.
“The man is nuttier than a squirrel turd and is too dangerous to be allowed the oval office, my opinion only....and I am willing to be convinced otherwise.”
His answers on the economy and the insanity of our funding and arming opponents - spot on
His answer about how we are paternalist to Israel - spot on
His discussion about how the GOP has gone off the reservation - spot on.
He doesn’t have a melodious voice - so what? We aren’t electing a talk show host.
I think Fred won - but Paul was def #2. He ‘lost’ for the same reason Nixon ‘lost’ vs Jack Kennedy.
Have you stopped to consider the fact that voters might be different, or that the candidates performances vary? You sound like a cheerleader. Also, one focus group might be wildly different than another group.
I agree Thompson won tonight, he finally went on the offense.
Oh Lord I am so relieved to hear that. The last debates Fox pundits treated Luntz’s groups like gold- let’s hope they give Fred some well deserved push.
