Yes, ANOTHER GOP debate tonight, on CNN

Quote:

LAS VEGAS -- The two Republican front-runners set the stage for Tuesday evening's presidential debate by alternately proposing that Americans behind on their mortgages be pushed out of their homes faster (Romeny), and by defending an exotic tax reform proposal that hews closely to one first enacted in the fantasy world video game "SimCity." (Cain).

Where the debate goes from here will unfold on CNN at 8 p.m. Eastern.

Has anybody else noticed that the new head of CNN is changing the station to be as crazy as GOP-TV-Faux News?

Actually watched this one, pretty interesting how they attacked each other, the winner last night was Obama as except for Romney and Newt they all appeared rather petty. Romney certainly looks like the eventual nominee and he will be tough to beat, time will tell.

Credit where credit is due, I agree he makes sense. Don't know if I trust the man to lead this nation but he scores big on common sense.

Huntsman won, by skipping it.

The fact-checkers were worn out by the end of the first half-hour.

It makes me uncomfortable to find humor in the same things as you.

I dunno. That 99% is an awfully diverse group. Not much "lumping" in it. See the stats on the other thread. Generally pretty well-read, educated and monied, in fact.

:tro::D

Jon Huntsman was on The Colbert Report last night, and asked Colbert, in Mandarin Chinese, if he'd be his VP running mate. Of course, Colbert cannot, because he has formed that real political superPac - so we'll see if Huntmans did that deliberately to tempt the gods of election law.
