Who won the debate last night?
I fell asleep.
Did they talk about anything anyone would care about?
I think Huntsman is going to catapult to the top soon.

RCP average has Huntsman surging at 2.5% as of the 9th...still in last and tied with your credability on various issues at this point...you could both use a "catapult"

Please, if you're going to attack my credibility get specific. And no, that doesn't mean just make specific stuff up.

"Did they talk about anything anyone would care about?"
Nope. They didn't talk about blaming Dems for everytihing including the Lindburgh baby kidnapping. They didn't talk about how to make evertpne irrationally afraid of Democrats. They talked about how to actually fix the debt problem, so no, nothing you or your ilk would care about. It was a good night for you to howl at the moon instead.
"I think Huntsman is going to catapult to the top soon."
Wow. Very astute.

pretty funny watching Obey-me tonight with Steve Croft .....
I read someone friendly to Obey-me once quoted describing him as "someone who always thinks he's the smartest in the room and out of the room and he's never wrong"...pretty accurate I think
even someone as friendly as Croft didn't buy the recycled bs that O was peddling, he didn't seem quite sure how to deal with the level of delusion that was exhibited..........

Views of how he has handled the economy is the obvious drag on the president's ratings: While just 33 percent approve, 60 percent disapprove.
Similarly, just 35 percent approve his his handling of job creation while 58 percent disapprove.
Additionally, most Americans do not think the president's priorities for the country are in line with theirs. 54 percent say Mr. Obama doesn't share their priorities.
On the 2010 health care reform law, 51% of Americans disapprove of the law.
With nearly a year left before the 2012 election, 41 percent of Americans think Mr. Obama has performed his job well enough to be elected to a second term, but 54 percent don't think so.
66 percent of Americans say they do not have a clear idea of what he wants to accomplish in a second term.

Gingrich is still on top, and he had the line of the night. Romney criticized Gingrich for being a career politician (which is untrue, Gingrich has been out of office for a long time), and Gingrich responded by saying "Mitt, the only reason you're not a career politician is because you lost an election to Ted Kennedy in 1994". When are people going to STOP asking Gingrich these "gotcha" questions, which he inevitably bashes you over the head with?
It also made me sick when the moderator, George Stefanapolis, asked all the candidates to gang up on Gingrich for his infidelity. I do think infidelity is fair game for a question. But I don't like it when a guy like Stefanopolis asks the question, because he was a senior policy advisor to Bill Clinton for 8 years. Bill Clinton is the patron saint of infidelity, and no one who worshipped at his altar for 8 years is in any position to challenge Gingrich for mistakes he made 15 years ago.

Let me get this right... Clinton is the patron saint of infidelity for getting some on the side, but Gingrich "made a mistake". I would think that someone like yourself with strong religious beliefs would find Gingrich, with his infidelity and 2 divorces, just as reprehensible as you find Clinton.
Yes, I understand that Clinton is a Democrat and therefore you hate him. However, remove the -D and -R, and they are both guys that fooled around on their wives.
I'm curious how you justify the double-standard. No politics. How is one man reprehensible for what he did and another "made a mistake"?

Newt would have converted to any religion knowing he was getting a piece of ass 23 years younger.
Let's see he was about 49 years old and she was 26 years old at the time. Newt must have been saying to himself "OH GOD I DO BELIEVE IN XMAS"
