Ron Paul = The Dennis Kucinich of 2008

Dennis Kucinich doesn't even = the Dennis Kucinich of 2008

[12th Doctor]

And would they please fix Rudy's mic problem?

[12th Doctor]

And would they please fix Rudy's mic problem?

It's interruption from lightning.  But it seems to almost exclusively be affecting him...

yeah, I saw that before... clearly its not just the lightening though, unless God really is trying to screw Rudy.

[12th Doctor]

Also, would Romney shut the hell up about being a "businessman".  He never ran a business.  He was a venture capitalist.  Those aren't even close to being the same thing.

[12th Doctor]

Well, Paul finally said something I agree with 100%.

[12th Doctor]

Does it seem to anyone else like Ron Paul is getting a disproporionate amount of time relative to how well he's polling?

Funny, I was just about to say that.

[12th Doctor]

And Romney gets caught in another flip-flop.

[12th Doctor]

That is a ballsy statement from Tancredo.

Tancredo is a lot like Gravel... all he has are ballsy statements.  He needs to grab a headline.

[12th Doctor]

It's better than just going meekly into the wind.

Well, if you want ballsy, Rudy just tackled it headon.

[12th Doctor]

"I didn't pardon anyone because I didn't want to overturn a jury."

Romeny once again proves that he is unwilling to take decisive action that might acctually piss someone off.

[12th Doctor]

Come on Rudy... pull a Bill Clinton... please

[12th Doctor]

Come on Rudy... pull a Bill Clinton... please

Dodge the question as everyone admires his footwork?

Well, he acctually did something even better, he provided substance.

Rudy's answer on all Iraq questions? 9/11!

Rudy acctually said the right thing.  We aren't safer now, but success will make us safer and failure will not.

[12th Doctor]

This debate just blows. I'm falling asleep.

Not to sound like an asshole, but that means nothing to me coming from someone who has zero probability of voting for someone on the stage.

[12th Doctor]

If I hear the words "Huckabee" and "minister" one more time....

[12th Doctor]

Dammit... Huckabee gets the "Bill Clinton" answer.  Screw that.

[12th Doctor]

Brownback first debate:

"If this party nominates someone who is not pro-life, then I would support him, because 80% in common is better than having nothing in common".

Brownback now:

"We cannot nominate someone who is not pro-life."

[12th Doctor]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Romney is such a fraud, and now we all get to see it.

[12th Doctor]

What a BS answer from Romney!!!

[12th Doctor]

Romney is giving a meandering, desparate answer.

His hypocrisy in advertising to...the economy of China.

Honestly, if I only heard the answer, I would think he was asked why he advertises in Chinese.

[12th Doctor]

You know what I would love to see tonight, if one of these candidates stood up and just absolutely destroyed Romney.  We'll be better off for it in the end.

[12th Doctor]

Thompson's problem is not that his jokes are bad, its just that his timeing is poor and he sounds angry when he deliverse them.

[12th Doctor]

I am a Romney Supporter !!

As are most people who intend to vote for either Hillary or Barack, I would imagine.

[12th Doctor]

Romney is so disingenuous that he makes Clinton, Edwards and Obama look like straight shooters.

[12th Doctor]

OH, HELL YEAH RUDY!!!  Put those biggots in their place!

[12th Doctor]

I am a Romney Supporter !!

As are most people who intend to vote for either Hillary or Barack, I would imagine.

I am a strong opponent of a Barack Obama Presidency, he is too inexperience.

I am a moderately strong opponent of a Shrillary President.

Romney and I have a lot of similarities. We both adhere to this saying

"There are two sides to every issue, and I agree with both"

Well, I guess you are about to hear me for the 34th time...

What you are refering to is nuance, what Romney practices in pandering.  He doesn't even try to claim his possitions are complicated, as Giuliani does, he just changes what he says and hopes really hard no one will notice.  Did you see the sh**teating grin on his face when that questioner challenged him?
