nothing to rate
he only got asked 3 questions

 

[skgai]

B-. Great answers every time, but failed to force himself into the debate unlike South Carolina. Bear in mind the others candidates all received Fs.

 

[justatrey]

NBC = FOX

# of questions:

Romney: 10 full, 1 30 sec
McCain: 10 full, 1 30 sec, 1 15 sec
9iu11ani: 9 full, 1 30 sec
Huckabee: 6 full, 1 30 sec
Paul: 3 full, 2 30 sec

Paul did great with the 4 minutes he got.

Paul is in there for the long haul... once rudy & hucky drop out, they will have to give him more time.

 

[Kludge]

The best answers he's given to date IMO. Iraq war question stuck in a lot of peoples' heads I think, and the applause it received was an amazing reinforcement

 

[Liberty Star]

RP did Excellent.

MSNBC questions very good but their time distribution horrible.

 

[ButchHowdy]

What a gracious man though . . . I would be chomping at the bit to get airtime!!

 

[Taco John]

I thought it was his worst performance. His answer on Social Secuirty was terrible. He completely lost any chance at Florida with that answer.

 

[defcreative]

I wasn't really that impressed because I wish he would have mentioned the 2nd place in Nevada and Louisiana in the last question.

 

[Mortikhi]

Its hard to rate a debate that sucked so much

 

[dsentell]

I love Dr. Paul, but didn't think he was on tonight -- of course its not like he had any time to be . . .

 

[billyjoeallen]

9. he played it smart. He's been dominating the debates and now he showed them he doesn't need the spotlight to be right. Made him look confident and presidential.

I don't know what to think anymore. Sometimes I feel as if Ron Paul is not trying hard enough. He had a lot of opportunities to shine, but he didn't. His biggest loss of the night was when he was given 90 seconds to ask a question. He used about 10 seconds and asked a completely silly question.
The only redeeming part was when Ron Paul got the last word. I just hope a lot of people took notice of the bias.

 

[Cigaboo]

Not so great tonight, but he didn't get a fair amount of time either. I think he decided to be himself moreso than the last debate (a polite, well-mannered person). Maybe he didn't like being more irrate in the last debate because it wasn't his personality even though it was arguably more effective.

 

[SeanEdwards]

I don't think it was a great showing for Paul, mainly because the moderators were turdlicking fuckwits who refused to give our guy a fair chance to speak.

However, Paul's final answer was fantastic, and it was the last word so that was pretty good.

I'd rate Ron's performance at 6. He had his good moments, but his persistent refusal to engage in direct confrontation with an opponent on the issues is an unfortunate characteristic of his personality. Personally, I don't think this debate affected his progress either way.

 

[Cal Mabus]

OK

on questions, but where was FIRE. Humble was good but where was FIRE.

Still trying to figure out the question he asked McCain. But McCain knew the question??? If they were on the same page, Ok, but what about the viewers. I didn't even hear the next few answers because I was still trying to figure out the question. Hopefully everyone else was trying to figure it out too instead of listening to the good ole boys good ole boys answers which dumbed down this nation to begin with.

But he closed it with the last answer solid.

Ron Paul = 7.5 Saving the best for the general election debates

4 Liars = [-10 x 4] Boast, Boast, Boast, bla, bla, bla.

He did BAD for the average moron watching at home. He appeared BAD too. A couple of his responses were great, but the average viewer will forget everything he said by tonight. I blame MSNBC for creating/staging this crap-fest debate in which was Ron Paul's image had to suffer. I'm gonna go buy me a rifle, or eat tim russert's bulging eyeballs.

Ron Paul should have said "Huckabee keeps stealing my ideas, MSNBC keeps stealing my airtime, McCain is stealing our Sovereignty, Giuliani is stealing everything, Romney is stealing votes from retarded people, and I almost stole the Lousiana Caucus and I ain't gettin' no respect cuz' this MSM bullshit is shadier than Bernanke's long-ass sleeves.
