So who here is watching the CNN Republican Presidential Debate with me?

You have the internet. Lol.

It's online too.

Wow, Bachman was asked a question and didn't answer it. Ron Paul was asked the same question, and said I'd pick everyone, and the host was like "no, you have to answer with only one person"

I guess the host got mad about Paul's previous comment about none of the other people giving their opinion on the Federal Reserve.

EDIT: Could this post be deleted? I should have just said this to my television.

Yah boon I hear you... I wouldnt be watching TV either, but my folks pay for it, I dont have too... But this is the first time ive actually watched cable(direct tv) in months... Normally just watch dvd or netflix...

TV is just a brain wash, and distraction from real stuff...

Well, it was fun. The debate was...alright...I think the one from last month was better (the host really messed this one up). I think Paul is going to be on the post-debate stuff with AC360

Edit - I first thought Newt was gonna screw up badly during this debate, but I believe he actually did alright. (not saying hes the best though)

Id love to be watching it, unfortunately I don't have cable, and the network channels seem to be oblivious to the fact that we need a different president. It would be a little more interesting if Palin was participating too.

With the exception of the fumble on the loaded question, I actually think Dr. Paul came out on top of this one. Unfortunately as I mentioned early in the thread, he looks old and tired, and yes I know he is old, but he appeared as a beaten old man tonight, this is not going to gain him support among independents. Gingrich and Cain, came across as bigots. Bachman, Pawlenty, and Santorum, at least to me, as religious nut jobs. Romney came across as arogant, I have this nomination won, so will just bash the sitting President. Just my opinion guys as I am an independent. Unfortunately, from what I have seen tonight, the repubs don't stand a chance in 2012. Dr. Paul is there best hope, and he is polling 4th among repubs.

I think hes was actually pretty lively. He managed to pull off some laughs and chuckles and seemed to be in pretty good spirits.

Ok so... when can we have a link to the debate
I missed it

It's finished right?

Stay tuned!!

Ron Paul to be on AC360 coming up next!!

I know someone above had mentioned a possibility of this. Just heard it from AC himself...

after Palin met with Netenyahu, it went
downhill after that. I think BB told her
she didn't have a chance in hell of
winning and told the RNC to give her
a cabinet position in the new administration
if she would drop out gracefully.

Palin became a silent observer
after that.

My point wasn't about "don't ask don't tell", it was about Romney mentioning when the conflict is over. The conflicts seem to never end...

Romney was never really answering the questions at hand he was too busy talking about the current administration. Santorum responses sound like a robot he kind of bothers me. Paul overall was really the only one gave an answer without beating around the bush. And yes his comment about the other candidates not mentioning the federal reserve was indeed classic imo.

I won't disagree with you, and for the most part, I thought he did a great job, he is the best the repubs have, they just don't realize it. However, in a couple of shots, at least early in the broadcast, he came across as a tired old man, nothing he said just his appearance. He did perk up towards the end, but there are a lot of BMOC in the race, and then there is cute little Michele, I can here the cries of sexism even now.

I so dislike Anderson Cooper
do you know he said once?

This was during the votes for the bailouts, some lawmakers were against the bailouts during an economic crisis
and he was reporting live with someone at the house speaking

he asked "Do these lawmakers know what is going on in the economy?"

He tried to paint a really bad picture of those who were against the bailouts
Disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found part 1 of the debate already up on youtube



Edit- the moxnews channel on youtube has 4 parts to the debate but im not sure if they have it all up yet

Theres also a few polls coming out now for us to vote in. At the moment, it looks like Paul is leading in these polls, but it is still very early. ed.msnbc.msn.com...

The AC360 "crew" is saying Romney, Bachmaan, Pawlenty, and Newt were the best.....
