LIVE DEBATE THREAD (Is it too early to start?)

[eyedigress]

EXACTLY!!

[phoneman08]

Tonight is a disaster.

Santorum had an opportunity to knock Romney out. Instead, he debates like he’s on the Senate floor. I had settled on Santorum, but was mistaken.

Newt I fear is to far behind to take advantage of a solid performance tonight.

For the first time in three years, I actually believe Obama can be reelected. God save the USA.

Once again, we have to chose the lesser of two evils. Romney VS Obama.

[Christie at the beach]

I think Rick has hurt himself tonight. He is not presidential. Imo. Romney, me too and copies Newt.

[wolficatZ]

Newt Rocks!

Hi.....

“Blue Bell Strawberry Cream ice cream with no sugar and low fat.”

You creep.... luv ya, but you’re still a creep. ,;>)

[Right_in_Virginia]

Mitt’s trying to sound like a CIC and Santo’s dozing off..

[matginzac]

Sorry but after going through this week’s buzz saw on contraceptives, Satan, etc....the man stands for convictions and I don’t believe he’d stick a finger up to see which way the wind blows...no way.

[rodguy911]

Yeah for sure its a shame Paul absorbs so much air time.

[RitaOK]

Reportedly they’re pals. Uncle Nutty would be proud to have his son, Rand, serve as VP for Romney, reportedly. One never knows what angles Myth is working to bring in Paul bots, but Rand Paul for VP would be motivate Ron Paul and Romney to tread lightly on one another.

[Deo volente]

Some issues not discussed tonight:

Our insane national debt, increased 50% by Obama in four years
Obama’s takeover of auto industry
Obama’s bailout of Wall Street and the banks
Obama’s unconstitutional power grabs
Obama’s attempt to crush religious freedom
Obama’s dismantling of our nuclear arsenal
Obama’s canceling the Keystone pipeline and destroying jobs

[eyedigress]

My ass. Gingrich is the man.

[katiedidit1]

Stacked audience for Mitt!

[AGreatPer]

"Romney VS Obama"

I hate to say it, your probably correct. Just damn.

[Right_in_Virginia]

My goal is to prevent Romney from winning VA.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

——The problem now is that, barring some catastrophe, none of the men on that stage can beat Obama——

We’ll win in a landslide. Don’t be down. Obama’s economy is worse than Carter’s.

The focus will be on the economy in the general.

[writer33]

Yes, sir. Indeed.

[Reagan69]

Santorum, blah, blah, blah,blah

[Jane Long]

Santo: I agree completely with Milt, that's why I'm the guy you should vote for.

Say wot?

[imchris]

Need a question about unemployment, please. *drink*

[RitaOK]

Actually, I apologize, Rand Paul reportedly said he would be proud to serve under Romney as VP.
