I don’t understand your animosity towards Rick Santorum.

How will you feel when Newt chooses him as a running mate?

[Artcore]

“Agree but the take away line was the one by Newt.”

I already early voted for Newt yesterday. I remain confident.

[AliVeritas]

Best quote of thread.

[katykelly]

I don’t see anyone being the beneficiary of this worthless debate . Including me , the viewer .

[Leep]

If Romney or Obama is not the next president I will be a lot more hopeful.

[Free Vulcan]

My guess would be water. He seems to get hoarse easily.

[jwalsh07]

When nature calls, it must be answered!

[bray]

Mitt sum up stump speech, total failure.

[Zarro]

Romney didn’t understand the final question.

...or couldn’t answer it.

[Raebie]

Newt looks like he wants to punch Mittens.

[onyx]

ROTFL.

[B Knotts]

Say what you will about Ron Paul, he does answer questions honestly.

[Reagan69]

OH MY !!!

[Fresh Wind]

Viva Poerto Rico, the 51st State.

Let's see if the Puerto Ricans want to start paying income taxes.

[FreedomProtector]

Great answers by Newt and Rick about the faith questions.

Exactly, great answers. Home run answers.

Paul gave nearly secular view religion shouldn't effect how one thinks.

Mittens was condescending, and gave the juke box robotic press religion button question.

[donaldo]

I’ll support Newt if he’s the nominee. I’d even vote for him in the primary. Again, anybody but Obama. Obama is pursuing and working for policies I consider inimical to the best interest of us all. Anybody but Obama!

[angelcindy]

omg!!!! him and that private sector answer !!! God

[Red Steel]

I’ve got Newt’s answer how he would beat Obama. Lets see him say it.

Mitten’s but you’re the Establishment candidate. You’re status quo.

[kjam22]

An outsider is not going to change washington. No way. This is the big leagues and Romney isn’t.
