We need to earnestly pray for discernment for the right President/V President combination whot will unite this country and reinstill the principles on which America was founded.

Both need to be servant leaders who love the Lord.

AMEN!!!

I was thinking more in terms of acting as adults.

Although, I do enjoy watching Romney's buttons get pushed. “Anderson, he's talking!” I am gleefully awaiting his button being pushed one time too many. “Thar he blows!”

Yes, it certainly was. And there is a bonus: I know both Democrats and Independents who watched this.....and LEARNED a great deal of good this evening. The TRUTH was presented via a very pleasing format.

Exactly! My conservative spirits haven't been lifted like this in quite awhile. It was inspiring. When the biggest debate "we" are having afterwards is which of these two men would be better at the top of the ticket, as opposed to arguing over which of them left the other dead and bleeding on the stage? We win.

This was great format. There wasn’t much challenging of each other’s ideas, but a lot of mutual respect, and a lot of complementary ideas about solving problems, instead of the demagogery the Dems always dish out.

We need to constantly compare and contrast the Republicans solutions with the Dems lack of solutions, or solutions that harm us rather than help us as a country.

That seriously starts now—at church, at work, at holiday gatherings. We really are in a fight for the future of America. We can’t abide Democrat fools anymore.

Newt Gingrich has been a VIRGINIA resident since @ 1999.

The fact individuals continue to repeat otherwise does indicate they aren't being observant of the threads....it's been stated many times.....

RE: “Newt must have been a-sleep during a major change to SS under Reagan. Hint : It created the so called ‘trust fund’.”
Greenspan Commission 1981 of course lead to the Social Security Reform Act of 1983.

The ticket needs to be Newt/Cain. That’s my opinion.

Obama is a moron without his little teleprompter. Cain will wipe the floor with him.

Yes, they can. The electors can vote for only one though. They can cast their other vote to another candidate or can decline the second. It’s in the details.
