Tea Party endorses Newt on the same day Romney reveals who is draggin the conversation into the gutter. I expect this to swing toward Newt, with Santorum also picking up 3-5 %.

Yep, agreed. Good answers from all on that question of rights and where they come from.

I am noticing that other candidates are using some of Newt’s replies from other debates, which has improved their answers. Anybody else notice this?

It's not bulletproof, it's magic! And yes, it does, but only if you join the Church of LDS and adhere to it's creed(s).

Santi walks away to take a leak.

And Newt laughed.

Newt has such a great sense of humor and always respects the other candidates and their wives. Newt got a kick outta that fact the Rick had to run to the bathroom in a Fatherly type of way. Not condescending. Just good humor all around.

His best still isn’t good enough and sucks in comparison to the others. You’re out of your mind

“To me he is the best of a rather mediocre lot, and that’s about it.”

I agree. He’s a great thinker, but wildly unreliable. Of course, compared to the Boy Scout, the CEO of snail-oil inc. and the blathering old man... he’s the best of a bad lot.

Thanks again, Sarah. This is YOUR FAULT.

I think Newt did alright. I think Romney came off looking like a complete jerk. And I think Santorum completely destroyed him. Santorum may have won this for newt tonight. Even a blind man could see that Romney is a slimeball.

Amen. What an answer! Not to diminish Newt’s answer in the least, but Santorum drew a line the sand and made it clear that he understands without a doubt that government doesn’t grant us rights, God does. Wow!

Santorum is able to coast because NO ONE is gunning for him tonight. If he were getting slammed, he’d tense right up and be a wooden candidate.

Newt and Rick are both good tonight. Good response on the Religions faith issue, Newt was better.
