We have about 50 minutes left until it starts. It starts at 7pm (central time) and is on CNN. Who do yall think will win this time?

www.cnn.com...

CNN hosts the first New Hampshire Republican presidential debate Monday night from Manchester at 8 p.m. ET. Follow all the issues and campaign news about the debate on CNNPolitics.com and @cnnpolitics on Twitter. Watch the debate on CNN TV, CNN.com and mobile devices. And participate with your questions on the live blog on the CNN Political Ticker.


Im guessing Paul will win this debate.

Tonight, Paul will be the same Paul that stood on this same stage in Manchester four years ago, except this time, he has more support and more money. But his message will be the same -- and don't be surprised if he says "I told you so."


Time to break out the chips and soda....

Edit - I believe CNN is asking viewers to also ask questions on facebook or twitter, but Im not sure where the link for that is.

Just a few minutes ago on CNN they said Romney has about 30% of the polls, and Paul comes in 2nd with only 9% (they excluded Palin and a few others).

At the moment, it looks like Romney, Cain, and Paul are going to be the big contenders in this debate

Yes, I do believe they will have a live stream on their website. I think they will have the live stream at cnn.com up once the debate starts, or it may be here to live.cnn.com...

I hope Ron Paul does well. I have far less faith in the voting public to inform themselves. Those that call themselves fans of any candidate are completely hopeless to any worthwhile cause. I think his main problem is that he has too much educating to do to win over voters. Unfortunately, the masses are mostly informed by sound bites and buzzwords spewed by entertainment “news.”

The others rounding out the group: Tim Pawlenty, Rick Santorum and Herman Cain don't have the staying power needed to win the GOP nomination. I imagine they'll be among the first to drop out of the race.


Tim and Rick dont really look like they are getting the support from the voters that they need. Cain is interesting though. During the first debate last month, he did amazingly well (not as good as Paul though IMO). Cain has been saying what the public wants to hear and seems to have already picked up alot of support, but since he is one of the newest figures, im not sure how long he will be able to keep up.

Edit- I gotta say I think Bachmaan is the wild card to. It will be interesting to see what she has to say tonight,

Cain is not a serious contender in that he actually stands a chance of winning the nomination. He's in the same spot Ron Paul was in last time around. He has his supporters, he'll get his name and viewpoints on the issues out there and he will slowly build name recognition. He's dipping his toes in the water, so to speak.

If he manages to catch enough attention this go around, next time he'll have an easier time making the final list.

Here is a link Watch Live. I'll watch with you - but this is all a setup. Romney has been preselected the favorite which is probably a ruse to have him beaten down by the press and replaced with a substitute at the last moment, probably Perry. Paul has no chance - but he's right about everything (prediction).
