Official CNN Tea Party Express Debate Thread

[Texas]

I'm tired of the medias ignorance!!!!!

 

[braane]

I fear that this is going to kill the momentum we could have picked up from tonight. Let's face it, people defecting from Perry were mega up for grabs. They aren't going to be jumping on the Paul bandwagon after that response. No matter how true we all know it is. Neocons are infinitely ignorant to all things 9/11 and condescendingly patriotic. This will not sit well with them.

That was by far not the smoothest answer, CIA blowback, 9/11 commision findings, would have been better, trying to make Palestine sympathetic is a rough sell here, heard the pro-Israel boos there

A foreign policy of non-intervention is the only moral and legal standing, people will need to read up on that.

That's my take. Everything got cheers but the Palestine comment.

TRUTH!!!

This is why so many of us love Paul. Don't overestimate how many were booing. For every boo in the audience, there are 2 people watching who agree and are amazed that someone is speaking the truth.

 

[BSU kid]

Some of these people need to get real....

 

[Ninja Homer]

Neocon boos = more independent votes. Really, it's not such a bad thing for Ron Paul to be booed at a Tea Party Express debate.

Nice answer Ron!

Sadly, we just lost the election.

I am glad you were not fighting the american revolution,

You can't give up over this. Those idiots like rush and levin are going to use this on their shows, all that does is give Ron Paul more name recognition. I am going to be donating 500 dollars on the 17th now instead of 200.

Keep pushing, he is doing great, and remember, perry will be down at least 5 points after this poll,

Perry cares more about getting laid

 

[GunnyFreedom]

He should have quoted the 9/11 commission report, not bin laden.

This

 

[IndianaPolitico]

That was a beautiful, witty, answer from Ron Paul.

 

[afmatt]

Nice answer to a non-question hehe

 

[libertybrewcity]

Bachmann would bring no clothes?

 

[anaconda]

Ron's first answer was great. He dropped the ball on the rebuttal to Prick Santorum. Ron simply needs to point out that it is retarded to do full scale invasions to catch a handful of terrorists. And quote Michael Scheuer.

 

[Badger Paul]

"Sadly, we just lost the election."

Didn't we say this last week?

 

[green73]

drop out Huntsman

 

[TroySmith]

I don't think this hurt. The audience was both cheering and booing and has been vocal all night. It's clear its divided between NeoCons and true conservative/libertarians. And remember, the vast majority of Americans agree with RP.
