Why can’t Newt win?
Well, I just got on here, because I was concentrating on the debate. I see once again Rick Perry sucks bigtime, and will now be even lower in the polls than he already is. Boy, is he an unattractive candidate tonight. Once again, the best are Romney, Gingrich, Cain, and occasionally Bachman, Paul once again pleases his rabid followers, and the rest are just there occupying space. It’s time the field needs to be narrowed down. This debate is a fun one though. Feisty, lots of interplay, good questions (I have to admit Anderson Cooper is actually asking good questions), and I’m about to crack out the popcorn. Having a good time with this tonite.
Rick’s Red Bull is wearing off.
There is no question that Newt is extremely bright.
Which is why he's unelectable.
I'm a Texan and I recognize jealousy when I see it.
You being from Wee Hampshire I guess your feelings are inevitable.
Newt will be a great VP.
Newt is the wise father on stage. Santorum is the spoiled son.
I love Texans also, just NOT as Presidents. Texans develop amnesia after being elected.
Cain said, we do not negotiate with terrorists. How is that running in circles?
I think Newt could be a one hell of a Sec’y of State. He knows history and unlike Obama, actually IS the smartest guy in the room.
{{{givin’ you a quick snappy double Issak the Bartender finger point}}}
Is newt a RINO? If not then why not support him? what is the particular baggage that makes him unsupportable by Tea Party types?
PaulBots? Please, show some respect. They’re drug-addled hippies. :-P
Although Obama has nothing there there, Romney
is Obama-lite, so he can’t win a debate against Obama.
Mitt wants to help the middle class. What about everyone? all citizens?
He said the 99% today. (vs. the 1%)
of the Occupy Wall Street. Class warfare — Alinsky -— OBama is
playing class warfare. THat’s all he has.
Today!! He is using the language of Obama, SEIU, Communist Party...
WILLINGLY.
He never says freedom, liberty, Declaration of Independence, that’s
the kryponite to Obama. He LOVES big government,.
Newt hit it outta the park with ‘I am a cheap Hawk.’
Bachmann did well also.
Cain asked ‘would you release Gitmo detainees’ to bring home a US soldier. What a gotcha question.
Santorum taking the questions back to defending the US—and criticizing Obama. Rick is doing well.
and LRon is the crazy uncle!
Good grief. That’s DU rhetoric.
Here it ll the time from the pro-Perry crowd.
Wish I had a dollar every time a Palinista called me a hater - I'd be rich right now.
I would guess that he doesn’t govern the way he debates?
Nancy Pelosi, a couch and global warming ring a bell?
We need a leader, not a disc jockey’
Newt is a leader
He isnt pretty,he has flaws, but he is a leader.
Right now, we have a petulant child that likes to shoot hoops, for Cripes sakes!
