Romney and Brownback were dressed a little more casual than the others. Not looking very Presidential. Smiley

So little applause for Paul. I've a feeling today won't be a good day for us Paul supporters.

Iowa is a bad state for him, as I said before it's populist.

Cox is on now. This should be interesting since I know nothing about him.

Get this waste of space off the stage. He has no chance to win and should try getting elected to something before he tries for President. All he's getting now is polite applause and taking time away from other people.

For not being elected to anything before, I didn't think Cox was that bad.

He's really harping on his pro-life credentials; good move.

The people in the stands clearly despise Paul.

So now no Department of Education or Energy, just being born here doesn't mean you are a citizen and there should be no welfare at all. Horrible person.

Great speach by Paul. I'm happy that even though his wife is ill, he can still hit one out of the park. The crowds chants of "Ron Paul" does make this seem a little like a cult, though.

Well at least he's off the stage, at least we won't get him in office so he can destroy the country.

It amuses me that they have a pen to move supporters in and out, depending on the candidate.

I hope Huckabee does well; I don't agree with him on almost anything but he seems like a decent, articulate man.

He could have phrased his "I'm going to beat Hillary" a little better though. Tongue

A shame really.



As for Huckabee:  Wow, he sounded great. His speech was very moving, and he was very polished. he definetly came out and fired from all cylinders.

You gotta give him the chance to do his speech. The debates don't give him that freedom so he doesn't look as good.

Tommy Thompson just had a sex change on stage.  He said that he was "wife of Sue Ann".   Wink
