Halfway through who is winning, losing?

[Original_Intent]

Clearly on MESSAGE ROn Paul wins hands down - but i am talking things like playing the crowd, dominating speaking time (only within the moderators control, no reflection on the candidate.

Winners:

1. Romney - tons of time to talk and has played to the audience very well.
2. Ron Paul - has made the BEST use of the limitted time.

Losers:

1. Giuliani - put a fork in him, he is done
2. McCain - going after Ron Paul - won't they ever learn? Romney got singed on this last time and is keeping his distance from the good doctor.
3. Thompson/Tancredo (tie) - one is getting time to talk andis showing is irrelevance, the other hasn't had adequate opportunity to show his irrelevance.

IMO Paul should have said "IRS" instead of "Dept. of Energy." But, it's not for me to second-guess.

biggest losers: Guliani, Thompson, Tancredo

I've only seen bits and pieces but I'm seeing a lot of copying off Ron. Oh the lies they are spewing!!!!! They KNOW Ron is winning lots of support.

Im baffled at how little time RP gets, completely disappointed with this debate so far.

but i do enjoy watching Romney get ripped to pieces.

Tomorrow morning, it will all boil down to which of the 400 Romney and Rudy sound bites they end up showing.

Bright side: they rip each other apart. We can tally the minutes of each after the debate and youtube it to reveal the time bias.

Everytime Huckebee speaks I play the schindler list theme.

good crack by Thompson about thinking the cartoon Cheney was him

hopefully Ron can step it up a notch

I would take McCain off the losing list. He has made some strong arguments and took Romney down a peg on the waterboarding question, which played very well to the audience.

RP isn't doing as well with the audience. He is standing on principle, and of course i support him in that, but this crowd can't handle the truth.

 

[davidhperry]

I think Romney, Thompson, and Dr. Paul are doing the best.

 

[Blue IS Unity]

I believe McCain is winning the debate so far.

Im so angry at how little time RP is getting, having to cool off outside.

We need to make CNN the loser of this. Time for everyone to join the boycott of MSM.
