Grade Ron Paul's Debate Performance (2/22/12)

[Standing Liberty]

I put legendary. I know I am biased, but he was the only one who made any sense. He looked like he enjoyed himself and displayed confidence that the others did not. I really don't know how anyone can sanely support Santorum other than he hates Gays better than the rest. Mitt, Newt and Rick will get us into war faster than the French surrendering to the Germans. Ron Ruled the debate no matter how the media spin it.

Ron KILLED IT tonight! Sure we can nitpick about him rambling or stuttering a bit, but that is just who he is and that isn't going to change. If people ever want anything to change in America, they are going to have to look past the slick veneer and talking points and get to what the real issues are. And I think he NAILED them to the wall. A lot of the foreign policy and earmark straw men arguments are addressed WELL for once, and Santorum is totally exposed for who he really is.

I've noticed the other three candidates are increasingly attempting to liken themselves to Dr Paul......

 

[Dianne]

The first debate thus far that I watched from start to finish. Paul was on the mark tonight !!!

The media is saying they all sucked for the most part. I see less and less people paying attention to this and we could slowly start climbing in the polls soon.

A. Not legendary, he stumbled a bit. When he got eager he spoke to fast as usual, but he remained calm and was VERY good.

 

[JamesButabi]

I certainly hope so. Someone always votes F no matter how good he does. I find it really offensive.

Michael Douglas as President Andrew Shepherd in AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT: We have serious problems, and we need serious people to solve them.

I thought it was ANOTHER superficial food-fight, Ron Paul holding his own in the high school cafeteria.

But, presumably because he is a Nice Guy, he pulls punches by a-little-bit-laughing with delivery of what touchy-feely kindergartens call PUT-DOWNS.

He oughtn't do that. Ron Paul is one politician who CAN play the "adult in the room", and he SHOULD. I dunno about any of YOU, but when Baby Boomers got sat down for a good talking-to, NO ONE was laughing.
