Mitt is holding steady, just as he always does. But I’d like to think he needs to do more than that.

Newt, on the other hand, can’t fail to impress every time he opens his mouth.

Paul really deserved an answer from Newt asking him why if the radical Muslims are just attacking the U.S. “because we bomb them,” why have they also committed attacks in Spain, Great Britain, France, India, the Philippines, Russia, etc.?

Well the last segment will likely be softball questions....

My impressions are that Bachmann and Newt did best in this debate - even when they were going after each other.

Perry had his best debate yet.

Santorum and Huntsman did well.

Romney basically treaded water.

Ron Paul is certifiable.

What he said was I have already called for an over fly, uh, no flyzone..

It was no major gaffe and the truth is Perry is the only candidate that is talking about a no flyzone over Syria, something that much of the middle east wants.

It’s almost as if Faux News is becoming an Obama cheerleader.

They want Romney.

It doesn’t matter. The Mods and Obama are getting their arse handed to them by Newt.

Perry is doing well on this, Obama is all about nationalism - consolidate power in executive branch. Important issue to hit this administration on.

Paul is completely rational and even intelligent when he talks about the economy. Just say the word ‘Iran’ though and he goes moonbatz crazy. LOL

Yes, I think it was. Newt has gotten a lot of applause tonight.

Thankfully!

All guns were aimed at him and he’s come through.

Still gunning for him and he knows it.

GO GINGRICH!!!!

Michelle pounding Obama on the Keystone Pipeline - saying what I have been wishing SOMEONE would step up & say ... Obama selling out our national security for votes. When Michelle attacks Obama, I like her a lot - when she goes after the other candidates, not so much.
