Everyone claimed Newt won the debate last night and by what I saw I agree, he was hot and Juan is probably still feeling the heat.
But what I found more interesting was the Fox's answer or dodge survey they put on after the debate, where viewers got to register whether a candidate answered or dodged the questions asked of them. Romney was seen as dodging on everything. For a front runner he looked bad in my opinion. His answers about what his PAC is doing to the other candidate just didn't go over well. He may not beable to meet with them privately but he can tell them publicly to stop the nasty attacks on his behalf. But he won't as he knows it was his PAC's attacks on Newt that brought him down in the polls. He gets the results he wants and can claim complete innocence in the matter of attack ads. I hope the results of the Iowa primary that are suppose to be out today goes against Romney. I would love to see that smug look wiped off his face.
The other thing about the survey was the Ron Paul ratings. It looked like everyone felt he answered all his questions as his ratings were high on every issue. But it is my guess they really didn't care for his answers as he was not the winner in the debate last night. His answer about his attack ads and how his only regret was he couldn't get enough attacks in in one minute showed his true colors. But then what do you expect when he goes on Jay Leno and personally attacks the other candidates with his lies. Every time I see him I like him less.
I heard Rick S this morning talking about Ron Paul's attacking him for voting for earmarks. What a friggin joke, like we are all going to forget that Ron Paul has a clear record of putting A LOT of earmarks into bills then voting against the bills knowing full well they will pass, so he can get his money while claiming to have never voted for an earmark. :x If he doesn't have the balls to take the heat for voting for earmarks THEN DON"T HIDE THEM IN BILLS HE IS VOTING AGAINST. :x
Perry might not do well in SC but at least his debating the issues has shown a big improvement since his first debates. He seems a bit more relaxed than he did. :wink:
