YEP,his rant on Soc.Sec. being a Ponzi scheme pretty much put the nail in the coffin from the "grey-haired brigade"........the sparring between Romney and Perry was like watching two teen-age guys doing a "one upsmanship" volley....I did this, yea,well I did that and you suck Dude! EXACTLY what I expected so I was NOT disappointed. Oh well, on with Bernake this afternoon and O this eve......we are just so-o-o- screwed,as a nation.JMO
I felt like Romney came out looking more presidential. I have my doubts about him but I could vote for him. Perry? I don't think so. I just don't trust him or his motives.
TheTeaParty.net has a Facebook poll up on "Who Do You Think Won The Debate?" and Ron Paul has more than double the number of votes that Rick Perry has. Newt Gingrich came in third, according to the poll, which lists Ron Paul twice for some reason. Oh, I see. Voters can add their own answers. Apparently a bunch of Tea Parties didn't bother to look and see what the choices were before writing in Ron Paul again:
I got a kick out of Herman Cain touting the Chilean pension system. I wonder if he knows it was reformed by the current female president?
Michelle Bachelet is serving her second term. During her tenure, she has instituted reforms that expand social benefits to the poorer, underserved populace.

I caught the last 45 minutes of the debates. I got bored by the constant liberal questions from the moderators. Huntsman and Paul both looked like idiots. Cain did well. Perry did well on the death penalty question but the applause seemed a bit weird.
Seriously? You think liberals prepared the questions for a conservative debate?

I'mnot a freKing lefty Nymysys and I am sick to death of your abusive labeling. Every conservative that doesn't agree with your extremist, insurgent xviewpoint is not a lefty, they are simply reasonable human beings. Your sort is the American equivalent of the Taliban and it is tearing our country apart as well as dwlivering candidates that are every bit as incapable and clueless as Barack Obama. I do't honestly know if Perry would be better than Obama is or Bush waz. Sweet God in heaven, it's time one of the parties grow up and start acting like responsible adults and stop spewing driveling venom.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
