Republican 2012 presidential candidates Republican 2012 presidential candidates Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich met in a Lincoln-Douglas style debate on current economic and social issues facing the U.S.

[mylife]

They are beyond silly, as I have argued 1000 times.

The only way to fix the matter is to bust the Mexican Governments chops

[antceecee]

Even Newt knows he can’t be POTUS... wake up.

[Caipirabob]

Perry will tear zero up like a ragdoll.

I couldn't help thinking he did a darn fine job tearing up himself...

[eyedigress]

Are they illegal.

[eyedigress]

Heartless!

[mylife]

I did not like it. I respect Mr Cheney greatly.

And GWB did not pick Cheney for electoral votes, he picked him because he respected him

[Eagle of Liberty]

Again, Perry needs something big like an out-of-the-park debate performance to give him a shot back up.

[org.whodat]

Only in the amount of voltage I want 250,000. And 50 amps and he wants a wild animal fence charger, but bouncing betties and claymores are still a go.

[antceecee]

Perry is the RINO GOP’s second tier if Mitt doesn’t get in....
Looks like their first and second tier is in major crash and burn.

[antceecee]

I loved Topo Gigio!!! Hey Ed......; ~ P

[mylife]

Maybe so.

I still don’t see any thing fresh from Cain or Gingrich.

So there we are.

[mylife]

Good idea, lets build it in you yard so your kids can play.

[txhurl]

That’s the thing. When Perry DOES knock it out of the park and starts surging in the polls, the same people here who support his platform but hate him will continue to hate him.

It’s irrational.

[Rick_Michael]

someone needs to put this on youtube...anyone know please let me know.

[rintense]

The only thing silly is Perry as a candidate. Oh, by the way, Perry flip flopped on border fences and now supports ‘strategic’ border fences. You going to fall in line behind him or still say they’re silly?

[eyedigress]

Good God Man, A Perry Home-run in a debate. He can’t debate Al Gore.

[antceecee]

Wow... you are one sad puppy.

[Politicalmom]

Well, then he “stole” the idea from Indiana and Georgia which were among the first states to adopt voter ID laws, in 2006 and 2007, respectively.

[eyedigress]

If Rick Perry is the GOP pick I will support him. Thats all

[Caipirabob]

220v border fences. Bet Cain scooped up a big chunk of the latino vote with that. Oh, of course he doesn’t need the latino vote to win. Nobody does, right? Not even Rubio.

The Latinos in half my family worked their tails off to get their citizenship and become legalized Americans. Each and every illegal who gets rewarded for their bad behavior is an insult to my family...a slap in the face from the US government.

They LOVED Cain's tough talk on the border.

The dropped Perry the second he called them "heartless".

Don't judge all Latinos the same way. Most of them are NOT ILLEGAL. I can't imagine why you'd think they wouldn't react like the patriotic Americans that they are.
