    Mitt Romney is the only guy on this stage who wouldn't look like a child debating Obama.

    Although Obama is awfully good at actually using real facts, Romney might have a tough time when he can't casually drop things that he knows are lies.

    Oh, that was it?

    Allegedly a voice of reason.

    Romney looks a little haggard.

    His voice is so sonorous, though, I wouldn't mind having that voice. It sounds like he's being auto-tuned a little or something.

    Bonuses are disgusting.
    Unless it's bonuses to job creators.

    Man Gingrich gets so chewed up when people actually get to ask him specific questions about his sleazy life.

    So he got paid how many dollars to answer uh, one question? Riiiight.

    Q: Huntsman, let's have a discussion that resembles sanity

    These people say they want the free market to take over everything...but they simply don't understand what a free market is.

    I wonder if Huntsman is actually trying to win himself a gig in the Obama administration?

  • dbrock270dbrock270 Registered User regular
    Huntsman gets mild applause.

  • Salvation122Salvation122 Registered User regular
    Huntsman: There are no easy solutions to housing. Break up Goldman, Citigroup, BoA, JPMorgan-Chase. Charge the banks for insurance.

    He was Obama's ambassador to China already.

    I love how 'Too big to fail' is totally anathema to republican ideals, but since people hate banks the republicans are trying to pretend they're angry too. Except that for some reason it's the government's fault and taxing companies less is the only solution.

    Huntsman's answer would've been totally at home in a democratic debate.

    Huntsman: We need cost-controls for healthcare. But, uh, free market.

  • dbrock270dbrock270 Registered User regular
    every one of the idiots up there are like, i have herpes but i can fix it this time around while ron paul is like, the constitution allows you to do that and private market initiatives means you have the best chance of taking care of that herpes. you can see ron paul idealism is rare. that's why as a gook, i support mr. paul, real hope for america

    I think Huntsman has finally had a full dose of crazy and he's eying a bid for a Obama 2012 job.

    Healthcare costs have skyrocketed because of inflation, Ron Paul?

    Romney's hair looks like it's purposely askew.

    If inflation is causing healthcare costs to skyrocket, why do all inflation adjusted graphs still show it skyrocketing every year?

    Will we hear "Noun. Verb. 9-9-9." in these debates.

    In the same administration, he would have stayed on, then quietly moved up to a senior State position. Obama likes being bipartisan.

    Ahh, I see he's gone with, "fuck if I know, let's go with the more recent idea before Obamacare" route

    Gingrich complains about how time and debates work.

    Also, touts his Lincoln-Douglass debates idea
