What's with the streaming kiddie table?

 

[GunnyFreedom]

Does anyone else hear whispering?

Yes.

I just hope Ron Paul answers any questions about FP the same way he discussed a potential takeover of the Panama Canal. Neocons need to know he is willing to fight any war congress declares but that he will do it decisively: go in, win, go home. If he can articulate his FP that way, he will go a long way.

WTF is up with the rewind?

I think Newt got hurt most in the first round.

Ron Paul is just a one-man wrecking crew this cycle. Send 'em up and he knocks 'em down.

 

[Ronulus]

If they ask about conservative consistency again Ron needs to pull out the quote about the one good guy in sodom and gomorah telling people to change their ways.

Media push is going to be on for Santorum. Gingrich and Romney proved they can't handle the pressure and aren't fit to run in the general. Overstep 1 hurdle... media will open up another. Santorum isn't as easy to destroy as a Gingrich or Romney either. He doesn't have baggage. He lost his last election bid, and wasn't popular in his own state... but that probably isn't going to turn people away. All we can hope is his extreme views don't resonate with America.

"I bet you $10,000" will be a VERY effective (if empty) response to Mitt Romney supporters.

Now I just have to find some of 'em.

 

[Bruno]

Rewind shows they broke their own rules. "Take your time"

And now they actually give some candidates extra rebuttals in the replay, which is extra time.

It might be advantageous for Ron Paul not to speak so much, everyone else is literally destroying each other.

i was thinking the same thing. just sit back and let them destroy each other

Very good.

 

[Sweman]

The frontrunner, who was then Hillary? Does she have the competence to talk about republican politics?

 

[Fr3shjive]

Ron Paul has so much ammo against these quacks but he hasnt nailed them down on any of the important issues.

Bachmann and Santorum both did a good job of calling out Newt and Romney.

The weirdest part was when they gave Bachmann a response to Frothy's comments, when Frothy had never even been called on. They really need to get their shit together.
