I didn’t see the whole debate, but what I noticed is that when there was a question on foreign policy, with an opportunity for Santorum to change the subject, the moderator went to Mitt or Newt first and then changed the question slightly for Santorum to put him back on the defensive, even on foreign policy or immigration. For instance the question on immigration changed for Santorum to, “You’ve said in the past that you would hold employers to the use of e-verify, would you also hold individuals who hire housekeepers or landscape workers to the same standards?
The whole debate was rigged to keep Santorum on the defense and not give him a chance to respond with any positive proposals on any subject.
As you probably remember from the other debates (all 1,000 of them!), Rick rarely spoke on social issues (except broken families). He always spoke on the economy and once admonished Romney and Newt to stop bickering and discuss important issues. It brought the house down. The msm and paul nuts are now twisting the truth.
