The Debate
Romney, true politician, speaks out of both sides of his mouth,
just don't trust that guy.
Still can't figure out Perry???
Newt is the sharpest tack in the room and practical enough to say
it will take 8 years to fix this economy. To bad he has the baggage.
Cain,[corrected by RIH] love that guy. Good old common sense.

Missed the debate, was working to build a stronger economy.
Huntsman is the only one I actually like. The rest are either novelties or characters of themselves.

Perry always looks like he's wearing a bullet proof vest
and from the movie "Josey Wales"
he stands like a "Ruttin Buck"

I think Romney would lead more from the middle and not be terrible. But if you favor the tea party he's close to the status quo.

The news media picks the president to be, all you hear on TV is about Romney and Perry and the average person votes for one or the other.
They both get more attention, time, on the TV debates then the others. Why do they not focus more on people like Herman Cain, Rick Santoun, Michele Bachmann or Newt? They also get all the attention on your local news.
Perry stumbled through the debate and his colleagues said that he was tired. If he were to become president would he studder on his presidental address to the people. And if you did not know Perry had passed the mandatory bill that girls get immunised way before he met the woman that was on TV. Perry made it look like he passed the bill after meeting her.
Lets hear more from Cain, Bachmann Santorn and Newt at these debates.

So I hear that Perry shows poorly in the debate, then gives a speech where he cautions against picking someone who's a smooth debater???
What a weak moment.

what a bunch of jokes...
sorry as a quasi-conservative I cant vote for these tools
NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump has become a must-stop for GOP candidates looking for advice or hoping to bask in the celebrity real estate mogul's star power.
All the major Republican presidential hopefuls have sought an audience with Trump, just months after President Barack Obama dismissed the TV reality show personality as a "carnival barker" for raising debunked questions about Obama's citizenship.

The winner of the Florida straw poll has ended up being the candidate ever
since 1979.
However, Christie hasn't entered the field yet.

I don't think he'd be able to match Romney's war chest.

He's a good man and I think people voted for him because
he has a plan,9-9-9, talks conservative common sense, and people
are sick and tired of the same old politicians and the direction the country is headed.
