I thought it made for a more professional debate. No screaming or interrupting the speakers.

I agree.

It actually was better to have the debate without the interruptive Ra Ra Pep Rally each time a candidate responded to a question.

The debate is to elicit candidate responses, not elicit populist hoopla from the audience.

Gingrich complaining about the debate format is reminiscent of Gingrich complaining about setting at the back of AF1 when Clinton was president:



Conservatives are trying to sell the 'angry Newt.' While it may be cutzie now for the Newtbots, it won't be in the general election.

Well, the only complainers are the ones whose candidate didn't get positive reactions from the previous debate.. Even Paul got some positive feedback from that one.

When the audience reacts, as it did in the previous one, it tells the viewers, and especially the candidates up on stage, WHAT the issues are and WHAT the public feels and HOW they think.

Anyone that says it is a waste, is going in with both eyes (and ears) shut.

Ok, I see what this is.

The Newt bashers are just looking for something they can try to attack him on.

For a moment, I thought that was meant to be a serious post.

If you want to push your candidate, I am sure that would be more welcome than attacking others’.

Cool.

So, you buy into the liberal media when they printed that. You’re a gullible idiot.
