FOX Republican Debates!

Did you watch the FOX Republican Debates?

Ron Paul is some kinda NUT!

Who do you think won the debate.

I loved the comment Mitt Romney made about John Edwards "Raising taxes like John Edwards in a beauty salon."

Also enjoyed Rudy Guilliani's reaction to Ron Paul's statement that America "deserved" 911.

I'm all for waterboarding these radical jihadist.

McCain makes me nervous...he's been two-faced in the past.


Wish Condolesa Rice would run.

Dora,

You have gone and done it now. There a couple of Ron Paul fans on here who have not realized yet what a nut he is. I hope they watched the debate if his true colors came out.

Even many of his rational stands would not work. He is an "isolationist" Republican who believes if you ignore the rest of the world they will just go away and leave you alone. Wrong!

I did not watch the debate because it is WAY too early in my opinion to be thinking about the 08 election.

I do follow politics avidly though and no doubt Mitt Rommney is the most polished and Presidential looking and acting. If only he were not a Morman. That really bothers me. Also the fact that he is a recent convert to social conservatism and I have a feeling that is just so he can win the Republican nomination. He was very much pro abortion until just a couple of years ago.

He and Rudy J. would both be much better than any Dem running but it would sure be hard for me to have to vote for a social liberal.

The debates don't matter anyway because Fred Thompson is going to enter the race by sometime in July and shake everything up!!!!

It probably is an irrational "bother" as he is a very intellgient man who has a proven track record of leadership.

My problem is that I believe Mormanism is a cult and I have a hard time holding anybody in high esteem who would believe Jospeh Smith's fake religon.

However Orrin Hatch proved that a Mormon can make a great national leader as he served as a United States Senator.

I am now watching a few minutes of the debate being rerun. Ron Paul just made outragous statements regarding 9-11 and the war but Rudy J. slapped him right back down into his place. The audience that had been quiet as I am sure instructed roared in approval and clapped when Rudy put Ron Paul in his place. I hope the Paulites on AFF catch this debate.

The thing to watch was there were 10000 people across the street at a Fair Tax Rally!

It is time.

Whats so nutty about Ron Paul? Just because he said America deserved 9-11? Personally I do grieve over such tragedy. But America deserves far more than that. Her judgement will stun and shock us when it comes in fulness.
