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

Machine gun mouth blondy:

Who is your favorite justice?

She will call for cookies and recess after the debate

[cricket]

And ‘oh’. . .Megan rocks! No one should be fooled by Megan. . .she will deconstruct - in a heartbeat - anyone she deems deserving. . .

[opentalk]

I think the 9th circuit court has the highest number of rulings overturned by the Supreme court. Activists.

[CASchack]

Lots of pancake makeup tonight.

American Pimp: "Watch me direct EVERY SINGLE QUESTION against Gingrich as I protect my Romney, and ignore his disingenuity. Romney's trouncing in the IBOPE Zogby Poll (Cain 39, Romney 19), and Milt's tumble in latest CBS/NYT poll to Mr. Cain, and Romney's recent collapsing loss to Mr Cain in the 2012 Iowa Republican Caucus (Cain 28% Romney 21%) means as little as Romney's plummeting career-ending loss to Mr. Cain in the Newsmax poll (71% to 7% for Myth), or Milt's shocking loss to Herman Cain in the PPP poll , or Milt's incredible 3 to 1 devastating loss to Herman Cain in Florida or Romney's third place hopeless loss to Mr. Cain in the Presidential Straw Poll of National Federation of Republican Women, or even Romney's humiliating loss to Mr. Cain in the October Newsmax/InsiderAdvantage poll, or Romney's exsanguinating loss to Cain in the Midwest Leadership Conference Straw Poll. At the end of the the day, this will not matter to FOX News. Never. No way. We are biased for the chosen we pimp. From the desks of McGinniss and Ailes, we at FOX News will continue to push our Milt Romney on you as THE "leading candidate" … even when you know it is obviously not true."

Just too good had to be repeated.

Extra, extra starch in that collar for Rick Perry, OMG!

[mylife]

And Mitt rides Perrys coat tails on the question.

[writer33]

Ron Paul off the reservation again on judges.

[caww]

Yes Megan did ..Newt was great...as usual...nobody talks down to Newt or entraps him...excellant ability when dealing on the International Stage!

[ClearCase_guy]

They ask Santorum to give just a name, and he gives a full and complete answer, plus the name. Way to go!

[re_nortex]

Houseman makes money the old fashioned way...

And Huntsman has as much of chance as does the late actor with the distinctive accent.

[af_vet_rr]

Next time mitt gets on there im timing his answer

Do it, because I'm not hearing the bells as quickly as the others.

[Froggie]

Eyelashes .... EYELASHES ... Megan.... look in a mirror !!!

[Reagan69]

I can’t stand Santorum. I did this... I did this ... I did this... I’m the only one who did this...

[TexasFreeper2009]

Paul epic fail on judges

[SamAdams76]

Favorite Supreme Court Justice...

Santorum - evades the question and rattles on about...???

Perry - Alito or Thomas

Romney - Alito, Thomas, Scalia

Newt - agrees with Romney

Paul - All good and all bad (???) Crazy man!

Bachmann - Scalia at top of list along with Robert, Thomas and Alito

Huntsman - Roberts and Alito

Bachmann nails it again

[imchris]

I hate it when moderators said, “Let’s go down the line, starting with you Sen. Santorum...” Crap.

[Apollo5600]

Newt IS a sociopath, which would explain Beck’s hate of him.

[onyx]

IDIOT RON PAUL - Cant’ name a favorite Justice - ALL GOOD AND ALL BAD!

WHO THE HE// votes for that LUNATIC?

[TitansAFC]

I like Perry (Currently supporting Newt to stop Mitt), but he’s got to stop with the Part-Time Congress thing.

Why not propose elevating the U.S. on wooden stilts? it’s just as realistic.

Stop it. Tell us something you CAN do: talk about job creation.
