Luntz: The other debaters helped Romney learn to think quicker on his feet.
Gagging.
Romney comes off as reactionary. To be honest, I know he’s a smart guy, but he doesn’t come across as the sharpest tool in the shed. I think it’s his lack of original thought.
Newt comes off like a steam locomotive, get out of the way or get run over. Even though Newt isn’t a Lawyer, he obviously knows the first rule an Attorney follows when in the Courtroom, never ask a question that you don’t know the answer to. Newt knows all the answers.
