i was presently surprised to see cnn hosting a republican presidential debate.

First....their ratings must be soaring for the first time in a long time!

second.....you can tell that cnn isn't trying to 'pre-select' the next rep pres.........blitzer is doing a pretty good job at asking questions. Better than fox....imho

I agree about Blitzer.

But if Ron Paul says one more time that we need all troops back in this country and end all wars immediately, he's gonna lose even more credibility.

Romney's made huge gaffes and gotten a lot of weird looks

Cain - I'm tired of hearing about 9-9-9

Backmann - everything's about Obamacare .. yes, it's important, but there's more to the debate than this.

Perry - seems, IMHO, to have won this debate, especially after the Pro-Life comments.

Huntsman - a close second, but he's not getting enough questions.

Newt? Don't make me laugh - it can't happen.

Is there anyone I missed? If so, they should step aside and endorse Perry now.

Oh, I forgot Santorum.  He's good, but I don't think he's been given a fair shot at questions - may have a chance at #3

I think perry buried himself with the vaccine thingy!! Santorum and bachman blew perry right out of the water on that one!! imo

Ya, that wasn't one of his high points, I agree

Watching Republicans debate each other .. is like watching a bunch of pigs wrestle and play in the pig pen.   At least in the case of the pigs .. you can tell that used some intelligence in the undertaking and you can get some entertainment value out of the experience .

At least they are for job creation and supporting BUSINESSES!!!!! Unlike the local democons who do just the opposite!!!!

And that's why Democrats will lose in 2012

CNN did a far better job than FOX! That's because CNN doesn't have a horse in this race since they are the liberal media complex. But it did wonders for their rating!

I was skeptical, but ya - Blitzen did a great job.

Yes  he did!!

and pigs are much more intelligent than Bumblethru and MT

Perry got massacred in this debate, from the vaccines to the tuition for illegals the audience wasn't happy about that. The more of Perry's record that comes out in the open the more he is going to hang himself, his liberal background and big government actions are devastating.

At least we support all local businesses........unlike you and the 'unreal demcons'!! it just doesn't get any lower than this folks. dvr, who supports the 'unreal dems'....ya know tj hooker and crew........support the bashing of local businesses and their owners BECAUSE they don't share the same political view!!! Now that's a vote of confidence....eh?

Texas really doesn't produce good speakers do they? Perry is a terrible speaker and so was bush. But I agree...perry cameout on the bottom this go round.
