    Just one more thought tonight, as much as I like Gingritch’s speak and his fire, he did sit on a bench by a beach with Nancy Peloci speaking about ‘climate change’. I’m not voting for him either. Please everybody, research ‘climate change’ , please do this.

      Pawlenty/Bachmann and Pawlenty/ Romney.

      In both attacks, he sounded childish and egotistical.

      He’s out.

    In my eyes, Pawlenty is person who cators to the elite. He seems so insincere, so phoney, so much somebody elses lapdog(thanks for lapdog term NEIL). And most importantly, Pawlenty buys into the worlds largest swindle attempt ever, human CO2 emmissions reduction. This man would be a terrible president.

    I couldn‘t believe Ron Paul’s take on Iran. Oh my gosh, not a threat! What world is he living in! Pawlenty’s attack on Michelle B. was immature. If he gets this upset and argumentative with his own party, makes me wonder how he could handle the highest job in the land with such childish antics. Newt G. seemed angry and arrogant. Kind of above it all. I see him as, if you don’t like the way I play, I’m gonna take my ball and go home. The president must be a uniter. The one’s I found professional, informed, intelligent and could win is Mitt R., Rick S. and Michelle B. I do like Cain but don‘t think he’s is informed enough for this job. Waiting to hear what Rick Perry has to say.

    Watching republican candidates FIGHT like CHILDREN in a debate is pointless and petty, and Pawlenty was the poster child for it last night. He is wiped out my book, gone. I felt Gingrich won the debate, but his relationship with his wife and her influence on him is questionable. Michelle Bachman is the one I keep coming back to. I like her. She stands on her beliefs and doesn’t vacillate, and in my opinion, that’s what we need. Someone that will tell you what they stand for, and then stand by what they say.

    Pawlenty was like a lapdog with no bite. . . attacking Bachmann. . . that was one he could handle. – -Romney is out of his league. – -even the Obamneycare attack was timid. – -he has no round-cylindrical devices between his legs. – -he’s a snoozefest and has ZERO chance. – - – the no chance low hanging fruit who should only stick around to be on tv and further feed their political career . .BUT . .will never in a million years be president are; Newt. . .. cain . . . Pawlenty . . and.Santorum. – — then Romney, Bachmann, Rick Perry, and nutty Ron Paul can continue going at each other.

    Bachmann moved up and reafirmed her base, while Pawlenty moved down. Cap and Trade was not a good policy implemented by Gov. Pawlenty. Bachmann voted against Obama Care, but the House did not have the conservative votes to get rid of it, (Not Bachmann’s Fault.) Romney was on top of the game too, So glad he is not going to Eat Obama’s Dogfood, because Obama belongs with the Dogs!

    Pawlenty took a page from the Obama playbook on this one….it was a class warefare jab. Are we supposed to be distasteful of Romney because he is successful? Really?

      Exactly my thoughts! Hard work, education and success…………what in the America world is wrong with that?!?! If Pawlenty, or anyone else, thinks belittling success in the country is funny……….perhaps they ought to be running on the Democratic ticket!!

      Huckabee did that several times to Romney the last time…….and it turned me off to him!

    Pawlenty comes off as a desparate and bitter little bitch ass. Michelle handed Timmy P his ass. Michelle, if you have to debate that floater, ask him this, “Well, GOVERNOR, if you were so damned good as an executive leader for Minnesota, MY HOME STATE ALSO, why in the hell did you let Al Franken steal the election in 2008? Did you do an under the table deal? Clinton style?”

    Rick Santorum is wrong.
    Historically, the country grows at 3% a year.
    10 years of 5% growth is unrealistic.
    More political pie in the sky.

    Pawlenty’s jab fell flat. It was a bit lighthearted, but it really seemed a bit contrived. Romney seemed to not care, and it failed to have any impact. I really liked the answers Huntsman gave tonight, once I weeded through his repeated insistence on being proud of his record. Most of what Gingrich said rang true. In Bachmann vs Pawlenty, poor ol’ Tim is battling with someone who is his political superior, and he took some lumps. Cain and Santorum didn’t help themselves much. And Ron Paul just seemed…..out there.

    Typical clown politician cheap shot! Polenta is the worst! Romney took the high ground and focused on what is wrong now with what is happening to our country. Pawlenty just had to cheap shot Romney and Bachmann hoping they’d get in the mud pit and wrestle with him. Bachmann defended her record, Romney dismissed him. Pawlenty hasn’t voiced or demonstrated any solutions to anything. He just wants to be petty and ridiculous and many people buy that circus act as much as they bought the hope and change. What a sick mess.

    Why has it become a crime to be SUCESSFUL? It was a cheap shot and smacked of class warfare. It made Tim Pawlenty look petty.

    Ron Paul is intellegent but is like the crazy uncle that won’t leave at thanksgiving. Pawlenty looked petty with his tussle with Bachman, and made me think he was probably beat up by the girls in school too. Newt was a little too prickly,but is highly intellegent. Even Santorum has his moments. Pawlenty’s jab at Mitt about mowing only an acre, smelled of the class warefare that Obama and the democrats use. Mitt was presidential and handled the hits very well. Pawlenty and Huntsman were losers and Cain just can’t win. There were several candidates on stage that could defeat Obama and his teleprompter in a debate.

      precisely. – -he’s a bright guy .. you want him around to fight with you .. . but the guy has zero tact, he’s argumentative, crotchety, hateful and showed zero patience.- – - a huge part of being a president is being an ambassador and speaking and meeting forieng leaders. – - -Paul cant do that. – -Ron paul is more like the crazy old man down the street yelling at kids to get off his lawn.

    I like Romney and Bachman. I was also pleased (and surprised) with Gingrich too. I could vote for Cain. I was disappointed in Pawlenty and Santorum. I’ve been a big Ron Paul fan too but felt more uneasy with him tonight.

      I love Ron Paul too. Not sure his dismissal of Iran as weak and not a threat is wise. Iran has practiced launching scud missiles from container ships in the Caspien Sea. Why would you want to do that? To launch a nuke 200 miles up into the atmosphere and have a detonate over the heartland of America. Easily done from our soft underbelly in the Carribean. The EMP that would be created would put us in the stone age over night. America without electricity or cars/trucks would kill 9 out of 10 Americans in one years time. One swift blow to kill the Great Satan. That is what we are up against.

      Have you ever listened to/read what the leaders in Iran say? They are nuts. The Soviets and Chinese are power hungry dirtbags but they liked living. But Iran…many think they will get 72 virgins in each of their 72 rooms in each of their 72 Mansions when the die. They write letters to a thousand year old boy and drop them down a well where they believe he lives and…AND he will come out when all the JEWS are dead and then…AND THEN the world will end when Christ comes back and kills all the Christians and sends them to hell.

      That is the FREAKING CRAZY CRAP they believe. Oh, and they want nukes. NICE.

      Lastly, where do most Jews live? The USA and Israel. Hmmmm…. I wonder who they want to nuke. Duh
