Lot's of home runs I give an A. Best debate I've seen of his.

Wish he would tout his Sanctity of life bill when questioned on his abortion credentials. Only piece of legislation that would end it immediately. Never gets supported even by conservatives.
 
I thought he knocked it out of the park. Everyone was just waiting all night long to listen to him speak. He's converting the GOP.
 
Why no A+?!
The last debate had a performance poll with all the +s and -s and it just didn't give a good picture. Way too many options. Plus, it invites us to actually talk about how he did, instead of JUST grading. For example, someone might vote B and say "I voted B, but blah blah."
 
I gave him a B... but would lean more towards B+

He rambled on 1 or 2 answers... but did a great job overall.
 
I gave it a D and will be the sole vote I guess. I wasn't too impressed. Gingrich, Santorum, and Romney really dominated the stage tonight. Don't hurt me. *hides*

I say A- because we can't fault him for the lack of time he was given. Also he pushed for and managed to answer two things they weren't going to give him time on.

He did much better this time than a few days ago where I would have given him a C+.
 
A debate coach would still help, and him running on his own record/mentioning his own history would help greatly.

ObamaCare/Medicare/Medicaid - I was a physician and never took Medicare or Medicaid payments, either doing the procedures for free, or working out a payment plan. I was a physician without the governments help.

Abortion - "Rick, I delivered over 4,000 babies, never performed an abortion, and counseled women out of them. You voted to fund Planned Parenthood, not me. My bill overturns Roe v. Wade, I don't see another that does."
 
My facebook page is blowing up with people who weren't supporters who are now supporting. HOLY CRAP this is amazing!!!
 
ron paul was absolutely awesome tonight!!!!! whats amazing is, you can tell that when the dr speaks, everyone there, the audience , the media, the people at home, EVERYONE shuts the hell up and listens very closely to what he has to say!! it really amazes me, i mean realllyyy amazes me how the doctor isnt running away with this... when he speaks the way he did tonight, he commands your attention. AWESOME AWESOME JOB TONIGHT DOC!!! A+++
 
He stammered even in his opening introduction. Not much excuse for that. Nonetheless I was blown away at his performance. Just one or two of these moments would have been epic. But he scored huge on numerous occasions. Best performance yet, overall.
 
A anyone looking at this objectively saw pandering and infighting, while rp stood on his morals. My only objection was I wished he would have taken the time with the question asked what he would change about his campaign to clarify his foreign policy in a clear concise personable way
 
I give him a B, but I think the others got too much time for this debate to make a difference.

Frothy got a lot of time, and I hope he turned off voters to solidify 3rd for RP.

Only way RP gets 2nd is if SC despises Newt over the marriage thing, and the way the crowd reacted it will actually help him.
