It was funny watching the debate last night. It looks like the moderators don't even know what or how to ask paul a question. By the time paul is done answering their question....there is no room for debate!!

However, the moderators clearly had a great time pinning romney and perry against each other. That was unproductive to say the least. And bachmann seems to be sliding and cain seems to be gaining. time will tell.

That was the worst debate to date...It was an embarrassment...The shameless plugging between Romney and Perry of each other’s books pretty much destroyed all credibility of the debate.  Ron Paul is the only person that had substantive answers to the few questions he received.  The 10th Amendment answer was the best.  He answered it in one sentence, and the moderators had to tell him he had more time.  Then when Paul filled the remaining time with limited government rhetoric, the moderators thanked him for completely answering the question.  IT WAS HILARIOUS.  The fact is, HE ANSWERED THE QUESTION IN ONE SENTENCE - He said he would veto any bill that violated the 10th Amendment - simple.  

A lot of Americans aren’t used to that straightforwardness out of a politician; they like the meaningless rhetoric and manufactured drama that was played out during the debate last night between Romney and Perry.  

…But things may be changing.  REAL CHANGE – NOT SLOGAN CHANGE.

most folks dont follow the string and get the whole picture of what a politician is alluding to......Ron Paul explains it and the masses are required to MAKE A MOOOOOOING EFFORT.......
