im not sure who i can say won last nights CNN debate. i mean...definitely not romney...he gott off waaaaaay too easy. they all did a really good job...even ron paul which is surprising. i DID like rick santorum though. idk...i think its too early to decide on a candidate...its only been 2 months. i think my favourites are santorum and cain. discuss.

Debates don't really mean anything yet.
As Colbert joked:
"Mitt Romney has announced his run for president, and to save time, he's also announcing his run for president in 2016!"

actually thats not true swim. up until this debate the republicans seemed as though they couldnt produce a strong batch of candidates. polls indicate that republican voters are way happier with the candidates now than they were a week or a month ago. i think they all showed grace under fire (except romney...he only opened his mouth like 3 times) and they showed that they are strong on the issues that they are running on.

Yeah, but Romney's the top of the poll.
Let's face it. Romney doesn't have that great a chance of winning. And Palin won't. And Newt Gingrich won't.
Search Santorum on google, you know why he won't win.
MickeyCain? Probably has the strongest chance out of the group, but then again, many Americans might be afraid that he'll drop dead.. Which was the case in 2008.

meh...scott brown had the same problem as santorum and he ran and won in Massachusetts of all places...romney cant win because he doesnt really have tea party support...gingrich was too humiliated by clinton to survive a media smear campaign...bachmann isnt looking too bad...theres still pawlenty and herman cain that no one is talking about. herman cain, in my opinion, has a very good chance in this election cycle which will be primarily about the economy. bachman is the conservative answer to hilary clinton...so that can go either way.
palin...now thats an interesting one. i dont think she can survive the media either.
personally i think that only the candidates at that second debate have a chance of winning...it really was a very good showcase of teh candidates.

OWAIT Cain e? Ohhhhhh Yeah, he may have sort of a chance.. Anyway.. Scott Brown drives a truck. He won't be able to adapt to the presidency ! But really, he might have some chance. Gingrich doesn't have very many aides anymore. Bachmann is too made fun of in the media (look to the left, to the left..) Pawlenty.. lol Best Response To It

well i didnt mean that scott brown is a candidate and if he were ai wouldnt endorse him anyway...bachman has a chance because the media still has palin.
gingrich is interesting...because wjhat he says makes sens if you pay attention. so he may actually be able to rehabilitate his public image...president gingrich would be VERY interesting
