Fox's Bret Baier anchors the debate. Fox News panelists questioning the candidates: Chris Wallace, Megyn Kelly and Neil Cavuto.

Horsecrap. She threw out a dozen wild allegations and he tried to address as many as time allowed.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Romney, she’s working for Romney.........

[eddie willers]

Would love to watch Newt get all FREAKY on Obama.

Or zany!

[KansasGirl]

She didn’t really mention her foster children again, did she? That is so tired.

When I was a kid I drove Ron Paul around from stop to stop. He was saying the same kind of stuff back then. As most people know he is more a Libertarian than anything else.

Overall, I'd say he should be the benchmark for how members of Congress think. Follow the Constitution.

But, he is someone that really never has been able to compromise. That is good if you are a king but not so good as a president.

His rabid supporters still mystify me. Maybe it is the drug thing. The stoners support him. LOL!

Paul is too old and too set in his ways. He would not be good for the country.

Perry is very relaxed in the interview on now.

[Allegra]

Is 14 the day he joined, or his age?

Wednesday night is "Internet Night" at the State Hospital for the Mentally Deranged.

That's when he signed up.

If they're good, they get to post stuff for an hour on Thursday nights, too.

You have added a lot to the conversation, thanks.

[TigersEye]

Huntsman kissed major China butt.

By suggesting that we toughen our policies with China? Interesting take.

[TitansAFC]

I WAS PRAISING PERRY

I simply pointed out he had some gaffes.

Newt had some opportunities he blew also, such as when he was asked about Romney’s “inconsistent” comment (this would seem an easy out to throw back at Mitt).

Sheesh. Just pointing out an error ISN’T bashing, I freaking LIKE Perry and was supporting him before I supported Newt.

[llandres]

What show is Pat Caddell on? I love him - so smart.

[mylife]

Ahh so...

[Revolting cat!]

President Perry would be kool!
President Paul would be fun.
President Newt would be a thrill.
President Bachmann would be a mistake.
President Santorum might just work.
President Huntsman see immediately above.

Extremely desperate and extremely jealous of her rivals ahead of her in “her home state”.

How can this happen, she wonders? After all, she bought that Iowa Straw Poll, that Ron Paul tried to buy and he’s leading her too!

[pulaskibush]

He did do OK in the debate/interview, but his stance on illegal immigration is still hurting him.

Bachmann is next on Hannity's post debate interview.

[altura]

Doubt Perry would take VP. He has a better job than that right now.

He needs to be the top dog because he is the best.

[Tex-Con-Man]

And Randall McMurphy will load them into a bus and go on a field trip to Iowa so can they vote for Ron Paul.

[tallyhoe]

Ok three 7 hour debates no moderator and Obama can use his telly!

[kevao]

Bottom line: Newt is the *only* one who can possibly beat Obama. I say possibly, because I’m not totally convinced even he can do it. But let’s face it, Bachman, Santorum, Romney, Perry (and even that other guy with the really hot daughters)....No way in eighch-eeee-double-hockey-sticks any of them will beat the Zero....

[af_vet_rr]

Other than that, did anyone notice the witch Megyn Kelly has become. She really thinks she is all that. LIBERAL LAME MEDIA HACK.

She seemed furious that she wasn't able to get any over on Newt. I don't know who pissed in her Wheaties, but I give it a few months before she sets sail for CNN or whoever will give her an evening show.
