why were no foreign policy questions asked

Couple things...first I think it's tricky asking these questions with the International stage as volitile as it is of late. Also without the candidates knowing what's at stake they really can't say too much as that information isn't avaiable to them...it wouldn't be wise to comment too seriously without the real facts as they are.

They have commented on Iraq, Aphganistan, N.Korea, and a bbit on Syria...but tough to go there with the status as is

Additionally these types of questions will come for the Presidential Election IMO...and they aren't going to let all the cats out of the bag before we have our candidate chosen.

Perry calling people “heartless” over a path to legal status is the main reason he is out of office.

That didn't happen. It's not even close to the actual truth. In fact, not one single word of your comment is accurate.

CNN is pretty much ripping Mitten’s performance.

“In the after show Donna Brazille predicts the ex-wife is a losing issue for Republicans if Newt’s the nominee; thinks Newt wins SC. She hit Romney on his ridiculousness on release of tax returns.”

Yeah, like that partisan biotch doesn’t have a liberal agenda! CNN and the SRM, why aren’t you telling the world about the skeletons in Obama’s closet? You can start with having Larry Sinclair on Niteline, then you can have Donald Young’s mother on, then Bernadine Dorn and her charming hubby can sit on Letterman’s couch, then Rev Wright can visit Ann Curry on Today. Come on SRM there’s an endless supply of material out there! Do your fing jobs you hypocritical a-holes!!

Sorry JimRob, I am so sick of this biased media crap!

Mr Newt was my congressman at the time of the Clinton impeachment. I was very angry with him because I had worked to get him elected, had met him a few times and really liked and trusted him to do the right thing.
Now that Perry has bowed out, I will support Newt. All his baggage is out there. His ex did not say anything new today that she had not said before.

Santorums ego is big enough to take the bait without thinking out the consequences.

“He said he spoke with Perry on Thursday morning, and asked the Texas governor to lead an effort to draft states’ rights legislation that Gingrich would try to pass within 90 of being inaugurated.”

Wow - thanks for your endorsement. I worked a bit on that summary.

It does bother me that someone like Dick Morris saw the outcome so differently. I am hoping to hear some others give similar analysis. I also do believe that it is quite likely that the ex-wife story is going to bite Mr.Newt despite most of it having been out there for a long time - the question is how deeply.

How could anyone on twitter or otherwise be trying to push up Santorum’s debate performance. It was one of the worst I have seen this campaign season. His visuals were bad. Shaking his head when others were talking. Sounded petty at times. All bad debate 101 stuff.

His SOPA answer and reasons were horrible. But hey, thats policy stuff.

Worst thing of the nite.... his answer about his returns being on his computer and his wife couldn’t print them off. LOL. Dog ate my homework. That was a Rick Perry moment. (and I support(ed) Perry)

You are on the wrong website.. eventually you will be banned... it's only a matter of time.. If/when Newt wins the nomination... you'll go haywire. But Jim and Sarah will be rooting and voting for Newt.

Again, you're on the wrong website.

Palin never said she could see Russia from her house.

That was a line by Tina Fay, portraying Sarah on SNL.
