Thursday Night's Debate Thoughts

Apparently, I need to go back to watch the beginning to see Newt go after the "moderator". Seems he asked Newt about his ex-wife and Newt slammed him. Awesome!

Jumping in 30 minutes late. Just now hearing Romney's answer about Obamacare, which I like, but I'm wary. Romney is the one who wanted Romneycare. Actions speak louder than words.

Gingrich - the voice of reason. People are skeptical of Washington. Ooo, nice slam against Obama offering health insurance to kids under 26. "Elect us and we'll provide jobs so your kids will move out".

Niiice, Santorum, pointing out that Romney has nice words, but has stood by Obamneycare. I think if something happens to Gingrich in this race (Heaven Forbid), then he'll be my next choice. I like health savings accounts, although think that should be up to the people and government shouldn't have a hand in it at all.

Ewww, Romney is defending his universal health care plan. Ewww, ewww, ewww!!!! This bugger is going to get the nomination, isn't he?? You arrogant $%^&!!!! Hinting that those that don't agree with his plan "don't care about people who don't have health insurance". Spare me. You sound like Obama. Get off the stage!!

Nice, again, Santorum, pointing out Romney's hypocrasy! I'm liking him more and more.

Romney talks a big game, but all I see is a wolf in sheep's clothing.  They are all sure getting heated up, aren't they? The three of them anyways.... Poor Ron Paul is getting ignored in the corner. "Congressman's getting lonely down here" - referring to Paul.

Ouch! Look at Santorum and Gingrich going at it! Poor Ron Paul is like the little kid that no one will pass the ball, too. I'm sorry - he may have good ideas, but when I hear him talk, all I see are his supporters, running around in tin foil hats.

HAHAHAHA omigosh!!! Will you look at the three of them staring at Paul when he goes off on his tangent about military spending overseas?!?! They are all looking like he took off his pants and is running around the stage in women's underwear!! haha Classic. This debate is better than any reality TV show out there.

Oh, Romney, quite trying to paint yourself as a "Washinton outsider". Gimme a break. I realize that's the most popular thing to be, but, honey, you are anything but. All the "Washington Outsiders" are gone.

Romney talks a good game, but would you ever be fooled if you didn't know his record. Good gawd.

Yeah, why the hell are people so preoccupied with releasing tax records?? Who cares???? Let's get to some real issues. I do like Romney's idea about releasing them when they are down to one nominee. I think it's an absurd practice, personally. Quit making a big deal out of nothing. This is bullcrap.

The rest of the candidates think Paul is insane.

"You are asking a Conservative about the economic standings of Hollywood". Way to go, Newt!

Ohhh, Santorum. I'm sooo disappointed in you!! There ARE laws against pirating and copywrite! Government shouldn't stick their nose in this and we aren't saying "anything goes" on the internet. Hands off!

Point for Paul - "This bill is not going to pass, but watch out for the next one."

Eh... I like most of Gingrich's "amnesty" plan, but I disagree that you can't sever ties with illegals that have been here 20+ years. Doesn't matter. If they cared about staying, then they would make sure they stayed here right. Don't give me the crap about splitting up Grandmothers & Grandfathers from their grandchildren. That's a liberal tactic.

I'll admit, I liked Santorum's answer about illegal immigration the best thus far. If they have been here for 25 years, then they have also broken other laws - they've worked for that time and probably have stolen someone's social security card. Good point.

YES!!!!!!!!!! Newt resolving to drop the lawsuits against the states that are defending our country from illegal immigration!!!

Poor Paul. Shame on the "moderator" for skipping over him and shame on him for the crowd having to call attention to him.

I'll have to watch Gingrich go after the moderator tomorrow. Jamie Dupree of WSB said it was not to be missed.

Anyone else watch Romney each time he speaks and think "Please not Romney, please not Romney, please not Romney"??

Wonder who will drop out next? I'm thinking Santorum or Paul, but it won't be for awhile... They'll hang in there a bit.
