I bet Huck can’t find Jordan on a Mideast map.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Goodnight all!

Mike Huckabee has got more cheap one-liners than Dan Ra^ther with forged letter faxed to him the night before an election.

[libbylu]

lolol i heard the Mrs say that too, and that he changed conservatives minds, rotflmbfao.

[madison10]

The Romneys wrote a big check to Planned Parenthood...

Do you have a link for that?

[CharlesWayneCT]

Well, I do, but I didn’t say so in my comments.

But you know, I did make a personal comment against a fellow freeper, and I shouldn’t have in this thread, it was about the debate.

I apologize for my remarks about living in the past. That’s for another thread.

[Charles Henrickson]

All of these guys are better than the Dems. I have respect in different ways, for all of them.

Agreed. There are things I like about each of them--even Paul! But I have misgivings about some more than others.

[DoughtyOne]

Actually, it’s that lump on his shoulders that is finally coming to a head that bothers me.

[FreedBird]

i think the Democrat debate was very entertaining. This showed the Republicans have more class and can hold up under stress by biased moderators.

[murphE]

Total questions asked of candidates (my count, but I had a few beers during the debate)

Mitt.....12

Mac......12

Rudy.....10

Huck..... 8

Paul..... 5

[TeleStraightShooter]

Lol

[kabar]

McCain got the NYT endorsement. That speaks volumes. You can bet he won’t get it in the general election if he is ht nominee no matter who the Dem is.

[plain talk]

I also cannot stand people who say, “I could care less”.

Well -- I couldn't care less. There is that better. :-)

[kjam22]

I’d say it’s as likely they went to Jordan as they did Syria.

[TheLion]

"CNN just now says the NYT has endorsed McCain for repubs and Hillary for dems."

That ought to tell a few folks something. I don't want any republican that the left supports.

[Eric Blair 2084]

The Fair Tax does away with the IRS, but it has to have another bureaucracy to collect and to distribute those monthly checks.

You don't need a Constitutional amendment to enact a Fair Tax but you need one to get rid of the income tax officially. Otherwise we end up with two taxes. The Fair Tax is a scam for the carnival barker Huckabee to hoodwink the stupid carnival attendees to come into the tent.

[DoughtyOne]

Hatch? Oui, poor Mitt.

[LibLieSlayer]

Well that is a nightmare of a choice. I despise all of these charlatans. I tried to find common ground... I do not know what is more disgusting... these candidates or some of their backers here.
