CNN GOP debate October 18 - Official Thread

I think Paul was happier with Santorum tonight for not putting all his focus on attacking him. Santorum seems to have stopped carrying water for the media and anointed frontrunners by going after Paul, and has decided to get scrappy with Perry and Romney instead. Mitt seemed to snarl at Santorum as if the Senator had "forgotten his role" and was flipping the script by going after him.

The main deal tonight is, the debate blackout of Paul is starting to draw more attention to Paul, thus is backfiring on the media. The establishment is mousetrapped---if they cover him, Paul's popularity shoots up just like Cain's did. If they blackout Paul given a field this otherwise pathetic, it makes him stand out even more!

I'm not kidding when I say this: I think these people are insane. I think Perry, Bachmann, Cain, Romney, Santorum, and Newt are nuts. They're clearly sociopaths and pathological liars.
 
Well, I wasn't planning on donating tomorrow as I donated at the end of the quarter even though it was unbudgeted. But if this debate is as good as you all are blathering about I guess I'll have to throw the doc some bucks on the credit card. Now where is the highlight reel?
 
I'm going to up you two. I think RP gets about a 5% bump after tonight.

The campaign got so much to spin from this. The narrative WILL change, and it will change for the better. Two GREAT days for the campaign in a row, and it looks like we'll have another one tomorrow!
 
Say thanks to CNN by doubling whatever you planned to donate for the moneybomb! Take out your anger in a positive way for the campaign.

Not nuts. Just arrogant and bloated with pride after tasting power in their positions.

This is another reason why Paul is special. He's a victorious politician who has not allowed power and privilege corrupt him. If Paul was the majority and not the exception, America would be a far better place now and our economy wouldn't be in the pits. But because he's so rare, it's no wonder TARP gets passed, the TBTFs get billions in taxpayer money, and the US debt-to-GDP ratio has passed 100%.

Just to remind myself of why I love, will vote for, and have donated and will donate federal reserve notes to his campaign, I had gold, silver, firearms, and ammunition on display while I watched the debate. Paul, among other things, defends and advocates REAL money and has always been a stalwart defender of the 2nd Amendment. I can't trust mommy Bachmann (oh mommies I feel your pain, snif) to do that for me and I sure as hell won't trust a liberal like Romney to fight for my constitutional rights to bear arms.

On a lighter note, I wouldn't trust either Perry or Santorum WITH a gun. Well, not so light.
 
Hope we get a tube of the highlights soon. I stopped watching the debates because it felt like I was losing brain cells every time I heard Cain, Perry, Romney and the rest of them speak. Sounds like Ron kicked some ass based on this thread though!
