Are some of the candidates now anti-war?

I read that Romney said something about attacking Iraq because Saddam didn't let the weapons inspectors in? Is that true?

President Bush a liberal? Wait, what, huh?  Did I miss something?

That's what Republicans say about any person or idea that is unpopular.

I thought Rudy was one of the losers, especially with all the talk about "nation-building".  He is really over the top in his emphasis on the military-industrial complex.

I agree that McCain and Huckabee were the winners.

Thank you Arianna Huffington... did you just type what she said while she was saying it

Ummm, I changed the channel immediately after the debate ended so I didn't even see any of what you're referring to. Why was Arianna Huffington interviewed?

I also thought Rudy's answer on healthcare was pretty awful (althougn not as bad as Duncan Hunter's answer). Rudy's "solution" was just for everyone to buy their own healthcare.

I just looked at MSNBC's polling, looks like either Ron Paul did uber well, or the Libertarian sent out a mega "URGENT" mailing.

I thought he was much improved and he actually got a good response from the NH crowd (who aren't nearly as conservative as SC Republicans).

I am no more a left-wing hack than you are a right-wing hack, Spade. Jackass.

You think that a nation that is 60%-70% against the Iraq War is going to like someone who talks about the need for more "nation building" multiple times during his debates? Get real bro.

I do not dispute that these types of comments will help Rudy with the Republican primary voters. That is not what I was referring to.

They spell disaster in the general election with independents and Democrats.
