WOW! Bachmann is better than ever!
Slightly delayed here. Hasn’t bashed her yet.
Ohhh, here he goes. Shoot. Yeah I liked his “I’ll cook you dinner if you can find a Barack Obama Econ plan” though.
I hope Bachmann goes after Romney
She looks great tonight
Backbone City going on there too
He’s not Perfect, but he is no RINO and IMHO he is the only one to beat Obama hands down.....
I like Sarah Palin, but she will not win over Moderate Republicans, Independents or Democrats that are dis-mayed with Obama....
Wallace - isn’t this a Leftist leading debate with questions to the supposedly conservative debate?
Pawlenty complaining about Bachmann’s lack of “accomplishments”. I’d rather have someone make conservative stance on bills like; Repealing Obamacare, Lightbulb Freedom, etc not raising the debt ceiling, and drilling for oil. then have someone who “compromises” on things like Cap & Trade, Healthcare, debt ceiling raises etc.
Bachman choppin’ off the pawlenty weenie. Wow.
He just called her a liar!!!!
WOW Even Paw sees shes got a spine
She’s doing well...wish she would go after Romney instead of Pawlenty...
Mitt is loving this. The frontrunner is going untouched.....
Chris Wallace is turning this into a Jerry Springer show.
...probably save a lot of gas the first Tuesday of November, 2012...
Michelle is right about T’Paw’s record.
Victor: Bachmann
she is still bashing back and is strong.
What a shameless stinking SOB is Wallace.
&&&
And what a waste of TV time.
Chris Wallace is an idiot.
Pawlenty accuses Bachmann of being a liar.
Pawlenty’s out. He went way over the edge!
Romney

LOL
