Watching this debate, I don't care who or what you are...It was so obvious who the Media was trying to lead you too...I mean come on!! They left Paul out of Questions they knew he would shine on and when they did ask him anything it was totally on things they knew he would seem "out there". It is totally clear he's not going to get a fair shake in our Media, He is not with their agenda...and they are totally terrified of him, and above all else this Idea of "Freedom".

What in the world is going on this country when you can plainly see our Media is "biased, totally unfair and judgmental" I dare say something is seriously wrong with what I just watched...

Even if you're a stone cold Liberal, and you watched this, did you not see what I did?

Hubby is a Paul supporter and was going nuts at the TV.

Yes, he noticed.

I see a debate where they were trying to get the candidates to go after one another.

Whether you like that kind of debate, its up to you.

Vintage MSNBC, I turned it off. The moderation and questions were pathetic.

I thought the question by Brian Williams to Gov. Perry about executions was full of such bias it was incredibly obvious. I mean, really, he asked him how he slept at night??? Argh. Of course, the audience knocked ole Brian Williams back on his heels a bit.

For those that do not know what I am referring to, Brian Williams asked Gov. Perry about the 200+ executions in Texas and if he slept well at night because of them (I am paraphrasing). The audience, upon Brian asking about the executions cheered at the first part of the question, thus lessening the impact Brian Williams was trying to have with his 'how do you sleep at night' bit.

I thought Romney on the "Day one" crap needs to stop. He isn't going to do all of that on day one, and likely not in the first months.

Rick Perry did excellent side steps about concerns over the number of insured and people graduating from High School.

Its really down to them. I do agree with Gingrich on one thing, we all know that all Republicans want to repeal Obamacare. The real question is what would they replace it with.

i thought they made it clear that it would be up to the states, which i do think is the best solution to see what plans might work the best before anything is implemented on a national scale.

that is the problem with big government-they always roll out huge programs and huge 1,000 plus page bills with all kinds of regulations.

we need to start small and local.

that made me laugh, and i bet brian williams was surprised with executions being one of the biggest applause getters of the evening.

that audience was on to him.
