Since when is Free Republic a place where longtime CONSERVATIVE members are censored because they disagree in a PRIMARY CONTEST?

When the GOP nominates their man, he will get my support.

Until then, I am entitled to my opinion of Newt Gingrich.

I believe the phrase you are reaching for is “turkey waddle” ;-)

Is NBC panelist saying Newt won, the kiss of death? If NBC is rooting for one of the candidates, it must be because they think Obama would have an easier time. No way are they rooting for anyone they think can beat Obama.

Brian Williams looked so peaceful and natural tonight. Almost lifelike.

David Gregory looked semi-human in a simian manner. His mouth really is chimp-like. As for his brain, perhaps in a few more decades, it will start the development process.

Ah well, it's NBC: Nothing But Commies.

Yeah...that’s what I’m hearing too. Andrea Mitchell and CHuck Todd are basically saying Newt is a brilliant tactician! I’m very suspicious......

There is a sizable contingent on the left who believe Newt will be the easiest for Obama to beat. That's not what many here think, but some of these same MSM operatives helped drive Newt from the Congress before and they think they can discredit him again. They'll lay low until the Republican primary winner is decided, then...

Who are these people and what have they done with the real NBC staff?

I think Ann Coulter and Andrea Mitchell switched souls or something. Freaky.

No one is going to see nor remember Mitt’s flailing on Newt. They will however hear and remember Newt’s grasp of language, government and his ability to communicate complex ideas in simple terms Americans can understand.

That is why Newt will win.

He did miss it. Newt said there were 86 languages in Miami Dade alone. He said there could be over 800 eventually and the USA needs to unify itself and have english as the official language. TYPICAL anti Newt spinmeister

If you’re going to have a live debate with a duct-taped audience, then don’t have an audience.

I sick of watching conservatives being questioned and manipulated by liberal 'moderators'. Democrats would NEVER allow Hannity and Rush to ask them questions for two hours.

Our side needs to wake up and smell the coffee...

Yes, I understand and I followed the post links back up thread, because I was so stunned to have never heard such a thing, and kind of panicked to hear it at all, and nervous to have it brought up on FR. But I am antenna sensitive this election cycle! LOL!

Wow, and now we also find out Romney invested heavily in Fannie/Freddie

That could turn a lot of votes.

Newt pointed out that there are enormous problems dealing with entrenched bureaucracies and elites that are weighted against doing what is right. The ones in charge would rather preside over the wreckage than give up their positions of power. That’s why he wants the people to vote with him rather than for him because people may think they can vote for him and he can solve it. This needs the people’s support to get us back on track and it is very humbling to see that we need to get our country back on track.

MSNBC panels saying Newt basically won. Stayed presidential looking, while Romney ranted and raved.

WOW!! Actually giving a fair appraisal. And they mentioned that Romney is getting investment income NOW from both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae!

I can’t think of any major answers tonight that will change anyone’s mind about who to vote for. In fact, I don’t think that much good information was conveyed about any of the candidates at all. I don’t believe any of the candidates stood out as being exceptionally good or bad.

Unlike last week’s debates, this one will be a complete non-event, I predict.
