Considering the beginning of his campaign and his former job, it feels like him trying to throw red meat when his heart just isn't in it.

Which sounds like me making an excuse for him, but in fact it's a little disappointing.

Ah, Gingrich just invoked the dreaded San Francisco Liberal.

Probably. Or they're just 'illegal immigrants in waiting'.

Monkey shit, I kind of agree with Perry. But he's still talking, I'm sure that will change...

He's actually gotten way better at it, instead of getting super flustered and all "My dear man..." on people but actually explaining the nuances that go into governing.

Still, jackass.

Honestly, they've all gotten better at not being jumping monkey insane. Which is disappointing. I was hoping for some quality desperation.

"I am a serious candidate!"

Wish granted, thanks Bachmann.

All I heard was some guy talking about the Federal Reserve in the crowd.

And has Ron Paul spoke at all since the beginning of the debate?... It is really irritating me. Also irritating me is their extreme pro-life position...

Edit: He finally speaks XD. Of course, it isn't even about an issue, though.

I agree, the Soviet Union epitomized capitalism.

I mean, USSR? What's more capitalist than that? Four capitals, all in a row!

Silly Bachmann, this is nothing like as bad as Carter. Carter had an actual default on US debts and presided over enormous unemployment and inflation.

He dominated a lot of the early debate timewise.
