Paul and Newt go back and forth on Newt’s “balanced budgets.” Worthy topic, fought to a draw.
Newt got the boos when he tried to explain balanced budgets at the time were balanced based upon the way bookkeeping was done at the time. Weak answer. Paul was right. National debt went up each year.
Newt not doing well tonight.
Well damn. It sure looked like Paul knocked Newt over on the assertion of a balanced budget over 4 years.
