. Noot is getting stomped on! He didn't like a question moderator proposed so he tried to hijack control and said to the others, "Let's all do such and such tonight" but moderator kept him in line.
Since then Noot has been getting puched down on lies several times!!
This is so great!! Ron Paul is doing great!

Sadly ones ability to run a country has little to do with how well they can perform in a talent show.. I'm sorry a "debate". But the run for president for the United States has devolved into a reality show - who looks the most presidential, who can zing the best one liners, and who doesn't look like a complete ass.
Trouble is that running in the competition can only magnify your f-ups. So it doesn't matter how good you would be at running a country, it's how good you can perform.. The United States will get the president it deserves, and that president will be a reality show game winner.

Gotta give Richie Rich credit for coming prepared last night. He brought a freshly polished set off silver spoons with which he force-fed Noot most of his own BS. The problem is that every Nya, nya, nya... each issues virtually sandblasts another layer of veneer off the other. Pretty soon there will only be their skeletons standing there — and no closet to duck back into!
How's that for a "magaphor"?
Paul was completely predictable and took no skin. Santorum actually stomped on a a few toes but just couldn't resist ending any cogent remarks with overtly stump speech speak.

Pretty damm good !
While I understand where Noot is coming from with the Lunar colony- we've too many things (transportation, renewable energy, delapodated infrastructure, archaic electric grid, crumbling education, etc.) to fix here first. WTF cares if you have a moon colony- how's that going to establish your dominance and over what... moon rocks ? AND more importantly how are you going to fund this folley when you want to cut taxes to the bone ??
I think this will haunt him badly. . . a few ghosts to go with the skeletons !

If these four were the only choices for November, Ron Paul would have my vote even though he has some ideas that are a bit far fetched for my tastes. I dislike those condescending looks from the others whenever he's speaking.

One of Romney's most prominent supporters, former GOP presidential nominee Bob Dole, released a statement through the Romney campaign that characterized Gingrich as erratic, unreliable and certain to lead the Republican Party to defeat in November. When Gingrich was in Congress, he "was a one-man-band who rarely took advice. It was his way or the highway," said Dole, a former U.S. senator from Kansas. As speaker, Gingrich "had a new idea every minute and most of them were off the wall. ... Democrats are spending millions of dollars running negative ads against Romney as they are hoping that Gingrich will be the nominee."
