A write-in vote for Obama is the same as a vote for Obama. Your friend is confused.
Oh Huntsman...SHUUUUUUUT ... UUUUUUPPPPP.
So we see his heart.
He is a bureaucrat.
I hope so.
Huntsman has got to be Democrat plant. He paints the entire Republican party as anti science, crying how far behind the party is.
No, actually it was PERRY who implied strongly that OPPONENTS of mandatory Gardacil vaccinations didn’t care about women dying of cancer! Yes, that’s true. Bob
this will be huntsman’s last debate.
His donations will dry up.
They get one minute to answer. They haven’t been asked that question.
Oh give it up... you challenged me. I have just as much right to my opinion as you do yours... so take a hike.
Thank you for the count.
: )
I love Newt in these debates. Don’t want him as President but he is kicking butt.
Paul gets an assist from Newt on the Fed.
PMSNBC stacked the deck for him because they want him to be the nominee.
His donations will increase..from Dems of course
NEWT! Fire Bernake tomorrow. Laid in to the Fed.
Boom.
Current speaking turns: Perry: 16 Romney: 9 Santorum: 6 Cain: 5 Huntsman: 9 Bachmann: 9 Paul: 7 Gingrich: 6
Well, I am officially so far behind having just gotten home that I’ll NEVER be able to read such a long thread. Bottom line....who won...and who lost...and who was the most looney. :)
I’ll bet it was interesting to say the least.
I don’t have MSNBC,
How is doing good?
