Observations"

Huntsman..................purple tie projects negativity. Who the hell dresses this stooge?
Santorum.........Barber pole tie, excellent with grey shirt projects points well.
Mitt................ nice blue tie, just perfect with his perfect hair tonight.
Newt............soft red tie, perfect. Speaking with rubber daggers. Not going after anyone but making his points.
Michele B.............Nice off white outfit. Best of all of them tonight. They will listen to her message with that outfit on.
Paul, no matter how he dresses still looks like Frank Perdue, the chicken man. BTW, his shirt doesn't fit. His voice attitude drives me nuts.

It doesn’t matter. It resonates with what the people want.

Except that it does matter. He might as well be supporting anti-gravity cars for everybody, because that's just as likely to happen. I don't like it when any candidate talks about things that are impossible as if they are a part of his or her platform. The only people who buy into are idiots.

He's been here in Texas since 1968 and, after all those years, he still can't shake his Pittsburgh accent.

I'm pretty sure that Ron Paul has been around since 1868.

......”we are seeing Newt’s quickness under fire, his ability to think ahead of the problem — those are very valid measures of Presidential capability.”......

Yes indeed bigbob....especially with the nation and international in such upheaval....leaders are scambling for answers....Newt knows what needs to be done...and it’s right at his fingertips.

I think it’s the false eyelashes that are getting on everyone’s nerves. Apparently, they are making her blink to often. She’s reminding me of Joel Osteen.

I think we’re putting Newt in the White House a little soon. He has to win the nomination first. And since we’ve had no votes from any state, that’s hard to do. This whole election so far makes it look like we’re going through the drive through at McDonald’s. How about we have votes first? That’s when we’ll know what the people really think.

Her attack on Gingrich reminded me of Obama...her way or the highway. Too polarizing a viewpoint.

You r right. Megyn kelly’s hand was shaking after Newt bitch-slapped her after giving her a history lesson. She was clearly shaken. I just rewound the “tape”

Santorum was taking notes on a one sentence question prior to answering.

Like that's some kind of a gaffe?

Better than losing his train of thought like Perry.

Try it yourself sometime. Cover hundreds of miles campaigning every day, for weeks on end, and see if you can manage to stand on a stage and speak coherently.

I've done it, albeit on a much smaller scale than Iowa. Campaigning is a physical and psychological marathon.

RP needs to be put out to pasture. He isn’t going anywhere.

I remember W. appointed Michael Mukasey because Charles Schumer publicly warned him not to nominate a conservative after Gonzalez (another weak AG) was replaced. Megyn fed Newt some red meat to chew on. I don’t think she was baiting him to hurt him. On the contrary, she gave him his best chance to preach constitutionalism and he lit the place up. Beautiful exchange and a great opportunity to attack Obama the Alinsky radical.
