Does everyone have their popcorn?
Newt comes out swinging… at CNN. But, come on, why did CNN use the open marriage as the first question?
Is the interview with Newt’s ex really going to air during the debate? I guess I better pull out the manual and learn how to use my Picture-In-Picture feature.
Update – no, actually it is on Nightline later tonight.
I was able to tolerate 5 minutes. 30 Rock is pretty good this season.
Is Newt’s “open marriage” thing really a big deal? Weren’t all his marriages… well… open?
I think he can ride the “Polyamorous Racist” vote all the way to the White House
Oh snap! Newt releases his tax return during the debate!
Mitt Romney: “I didn’t inherit money from my parents.”
Real estate?
Pandora, real estate?, maybe, but mostly strong values and strong work ethic.
hahah. Rusty, you reveal yourself as a satirist.
Didn’t see the debate, but from reports, it looks like the Republicans are going to nominate the throughly unelectable Newt Gingrich.
Down ticket D’s across the country are rejoicing.
Oh jesus. I just watched the clip of Newt beating up the media. Talk about working the refs. Now when any media reports any fact about Newt, it will be fit into the wingnut frame that the “elitist media” is protecting President Obama. Worse still – the lazy ass media will be cowed by that charge and will work overtime to beat up the President to prove how unbiased they are.
I also could only stand a few minutes of it, C-span had the pipeline hearings on. A plethora of anti pipeline people gave 3 minute testimony, good stuff.
With these debates, we have been watching Republicans (including the eventual nominee) get hundreds of millions of dollars in free advertising for months now.
Looking back, it would have been almost worth it to have a bunch of Democratic tomato cans primary Obama for months, so he too could get that free advertising.
Of course, the exposure hurt the Republicans more than it helped them. But that’s just because they are morons and it shows.
You gotta love the debate crowds. I kinda hope some of these yelping baboons show up at the presidential debates and yee-haw for Newt for media-bashing when asked about Iran.
“these are the people who will vote for Gingrich… you arent one of them…. are you?
The VERY small amount of the debate i DID watch, i saw Mitt Rmoney not answer a single question he was asked. not. a. one.
Moderator. “please state your name”
Rmoney “Barack Obama has held this country down for too long”
Anyone want to see what the next 10 months looks like to an insane teabagger? Check out this editorial about last night from the Washington Times. It is truly through the looking-glass type stuff.
“All the teabaggers want i another civil war so they can kill their fellow Americans.” – me, a bunch of times in the last 3 years.
What is the point of debate after debate? What could they possibly say that hasn’t been said before? Once again, I exercised my freedom of choice and tuned out.
John King was actually pretty terrible. How do you “forget” to call on Ron Paul (the OB/GYN for god’s sake) on the abortion question? to the point that the audience is yelling to get King to ask him questions? and the Open marriage opener just felt so tacky.
way to make me feel bad for sucky people John King.
