"I don't want to go back to Reagan/Bush, I was an independent during Reagan/Bush!"

are you nuts?

I'm pretty sure that around half of the people posting on this thread are trolls

from reason live blog:

8:49: Do the candidates think Reagan was right to choose Sanda Day O'Connor? Huckabee whiffs: "I'm not that stupid!" Paul says "no," starts talking about the Constitution, is cut off with a sharp "Senator McCAIN?" McCain, looking exhausted, is sad that O'Connor's husband has Alzheimer's. Romney would have fired up the DeLorean and travelled to 2005 to bring Alito back to the past.

CRAP!!!!

It's over. Not enough.

Technically correct. Completely forgettable. There won't be a word about Ron Paul tomorrow morning. Romney/McCain will dominate the MSM. I'll vote in my primary - but my money will go to LewRockwell instead (or Murray Sabrin for Senate)

I can't wait. I don't want to leave my kids with wars, deficits, and lost liberties. I have the utmost respect for Ron Paul - but it's obvious that he is not the man who will lead us there.

good bye. Where are all these trolls coming from around here tonight?

 

[ddoggphx]

It was a good response, but could have been better had he said I worked with him.

He said that. He supported him, and reagan campaigned FOR paul. He said both.

 

[phill4paul]

WTF..how lon..2 min....and never got back to the question...I saw Nancy Reagan in the audiance...Ron supported her husband...why won't she support him?
Lets all ask her!

 

[yanksforpaul]

Huckabee has never sounded SANE! Get out of here TROLLs!

Take a hike, moron. I'm voting for Paul 100%, but that doesn't mean I don't think other candidates are incapable of making good points. Stop acting like a child.

 

[matratzac]

gdammit cant paul BRING UP THE FACT THAT HE GETS MOST MONEY FROM THE TROOPS

 

[golf247]

.....mixed.....should have flat out said. Ronald Reagen DID endorse me....sigh.

HE DID!! And he also showed that Reagan agreed with him on one of the issues that makes people think Paul was a kook...the gold standard. That was a BRILLIANT way to tie in the dangers in our economy to Reagan. Very well done.

[coonhound]

AC was trying to get Huck & Paul to stop talking at 45 seconds.

well, it is a proven fact that Anderson Cooper once worked for the CIA during his college years. does one ever stop working for the CIA though?

 

[Molly1]

Huckabee knew that question was coming on Ronald Reagan and prepared a speech.

blah blahblah Let's all feel good, singing on the deck of the Titanic.

 

[leglock]

Anyone else notice that Paul didn't bother to shake anyone's hands or talk to the hosts other than Huckabee and that was when he was getting up?

 

[Jimmy]

I'm pretty sure that around half of the people posting on this thread are trolls

Way too many anyhow

 

[coffeewithchess]

Well, considering he's always been saying these things which have drawn us all to him... why is it a bad idea now?

He can say the same things...just talk about your record and not the stupid Federal Reserve...90%+ of Americans don't know about it and don't care about it...talk about your favorite color, RP would win more people talking about his favorite color than the Federal Reserve.

 

[LibertyEagle]

Ron did great. He was the only one who made a lick of sense.

 

[StopTheNWO]

Take a hike, moron. I'm voting for Paul 100%, but that doesn't mean I don't think other candidates are incapable of making good points. Stop being a stupid fan boy.

QFT! RP is not connecting with doubters or the uneducated. I love RP, but he did NOT gain any new support with this debate...........
