Stephy’s question on marriage fidelity is a hit job on Newt Ginrich.

There was an opt out on the Gardasil issue.
And there was no "individual mandate" involved. Nobody was being forced to pay for something they did not want.
The taxpayers were going to have to cover the cost for those who couldn't afford it. That's definitely being "forced to pay for something they did not want" since Perry didn't feel the need to discuss it with the taxpayers or the legislation.
Perry wouldn't have had any problems over Gardasil if he had discussed it with parents and the legislature before signing the EO.
To: All
Perry hitting below the belt,IMHO. Indirectly hitting Newt with infidelity charges. All he accomplished is giving ammo to the other side.

Newt has had 3 very long marriages....longer than most folks I know. I don’t really have a problem with it. It’s not like Bubba and a 20 year old.
To: Ripliancum
Perry was for the individual mandate for teenage girls. Its so hypocritical for him to be attacking Newt and Mitt. There's no mandate where you have a choice.

Damn. I bet and they are falling for it, this attack on Newt.
I would have said to George......”George, with all due respect, your question is clearly meant to target my friend Newt and I won’t play that game. Why don’t we stick to the issues people care about, not your agenda.”

Michelle never mentions the fact that the most she’s been elected to do is represent 614,000 people from Minnesota.

Good with the few questions he has had but the jerk mods are freezing him out.
To: altura
Just got here. How is Perry doing?
Hes doing well. He just made the Newt squirm by saying "If you cheat on your wife... you will cheat on your business partner." Basically you are not to be trusted. Newt looked like he swallowed 300 grand from Freddie Mac :)

>> Is this question a setup for Newt or what?
No doubt.
Don’t recall this being an issue for Clinton.

“Ailes is on record saying he is trying to undo Glenn”
Really?
Since I saw Shep Smith, Bret Baier and some other Fox person actually lie with a straight face about something a couple of months back, I watch Fox rarely.

Stephanopoulos has the nerve to ask about a candidates marital fidelity. He won't be asking any dems these questions. But I'd sure like to know how dems feel about such issues.

Round 5 :
The ineligible Moot:
"Stephanopoulos and ABC agreed to push
our irrelevant cheating issue that we threw on Gingrich, for us.
They say we got this debate sewn up."

A vow to God is even more important than a handshake in Texas. Good response from Perry.
Wow...that was some question to Perry right after the break. Perry answered flat out. He does not mince words, got to love him.
To: navymom1
What do you think of how Romney is aquiting himself in the debate? He looks a little sharper to me. (No Im not a Romney voter).
Romney may look a little calm above the surface, but underneath he's paddling like Hell. I think this decline he's suffered has him rattled and I think because of the attack format, somebody is going to rattle his cage, probably Newt.
To: imchris
Gingrich needs to THROW THIS BACK directly in Stephy’s face.
“You worked for a serial adulterer in the White House, why don’t you ask HIM?”
