2012 GOP Presidential Campaign -- "This individual's going to accuse me of an affair for an extended period of time."

Two favorable mentions of Canada within a minute--you like us, you really, really like us!

huge moment for noot

wha hoppen?

CAN NEWT REGAIN HIS LOST MOMENTUM

He bombed Iran. It no longer exists.

-- no. way. --

well!

do other republican presidential hopefuls have the guts to promise to bomb (bomb bomb, bomb bomb) iran?

One thing seems clear: if debates are happening, Gingrich goes up in the polls. When there are no debates, he sinks. Unfortunately, most of the campaign exists between debates.

Perry: Iran, Afghanistan, Venezuela are firing shots through the US border via Mexican drug cartels

He did a great monologue about how he sometimes goes too far in his rhetoric and all the moderators laughed like they were on a great first date. Then he did his standard fire breathing shit and got the biggest applause break of the night.

WOW. i honestly figured that the negative advertising blitz meant that newt was finished.

And he got in a mild dig at Romney: "I want to be careful not to sound zany."

hm. BTW, sure you know that newt's dropped precipitously in the newest polls.

And then sounded zany.

yes the old right wing media has decided to torpedo him. Let's see if Fox decides to as well... xp

is it just me, or is anyone else hearing these AIM-style beeps every few minutes during this debate?

yeah seriously I would guess the % of people who couldn't name their congressperson and 2 senators approaches 50%

luckily for the USA, the number of people who consistently vote in elections approaches 50%

OH MY GOD IT DID IT AGAIN

are they sending signals to my brain???

David Corn @DavidCornDC -- Anyone out there think that Romney is meeting his strategic needs tonight?

so?

haha those are the "running out of time" alarms bro xp

i mean, my question is: does romney have strategic needs at this point? i figured that, if newt fell, there wouldn't be time for another single anti-romney to emerge, so he could just coast.

he has the strategic need for people to actually like him despite being the inevitable candidate at this point

haha those are the "running out of time" alarms bro xp

holy shit it's the most annoying thing ever

Bachmann's been after Gingrich all night--is she really hoping that it'll come down to her and Romney?

god that was a really pathetic moment for her

"I am a serious candidate!"

"i'm a serious candidate. serious. I'M SERIOUS. LOOK AT MEEEEEEE"

we're talking about bachmann, amirite? sure. she'd believe anything.

Sam Stein @samsteinhp -- Bachmann: I personally witnessed Gingrich eating a small baby in the house cafeteria

i think perry just dropped out of the race?

Rick Perry just couldn't remember something.

"if you don't get your tail kicked every now and then you're not playing at a high enough level, thanks guys for letting me play at such a high level. it's been fun, and now -- back to texas."

why would perry drop out?

HE'S THE TIM TEBOW OF THE GOP

seriously, perry sounds like he's about to drop out?

If someone were to maliciously ask Perry how many spaces should be placed after a period, would his head explode?

Perry is a huge stan for APA Style

charles krauthammer looks like he skinned a bunch of people and sewed their faces together and then stretched them over his own

look, u can even see the holes and shit where he didn't do a thorough job

Basically nobody went after Romney tonight. I don't get it.

so . . . that means romney did well?

Yes. I'm very depressed.

It means they think Mitt's irrelevant compared to the Newt Juggernaut.

This is like that one golf major last year where the guy from New Zealand with the funny name won; I've given up trying to figure out who wins this.

Yes. I'm very depressed.

― clemenza

don't toy with my emotions! if romney's on the verge of clinching the nomination, just tell me, and i'll prepare for the romney/rubio landslide victory over obama/biden.

The dream is over
What can I say?
The dream is over
Yesterday.

-- sigh --

Carrie Dann @CarrieNBCNews -- Perry campaign NEEDED a debate that didn't hurt what they perceive as real Iowa retail momentum. Looks like they got it.

hey!

obama must make his move today to ditch biden and bring rubio onto the ticket!! (/panic mode)

NOW YOU'RE THINKIN'.

i find all the rooting for various candidates really tiring so i've decided to just start front-running for whoever is leading in the polls and whoever wins the general election i'm going to join his party and then feel really good about how we beat the bad guys. being on the losing team sucks!!!!
