Santorum defending the Union? There's something you don't usually hear. A modern day Republican defending the platform of the real Republican Party. They've been states righters for so long that they're flirting with teh idea of nominating a secessionist.

So the republicans defend the constitution... unless it conficts with their ideas, eg. the 10th imendment, Mass. Heathcare law makes since for Massachusetts, it has a very low poverty rate, a high Doctor/person ratio.
Also they were taking shots at gay marriage, which apperntly ruins a socity??

That was quite a little dust up. Yes, I think that's when the gloves came off for everyone.

Huntsman came off as a snarky teenager when he said he hoped Perry would offer lots of prayers. Fail.

I like much of what Ron Paul has to say. He has a snowball's chance in Hdoublehockeysticks of winning the nomination though. Conservatives have to have a candidate that can beat Barack Obama.

I missed most of it, but.............I really do like Ron Paul. Though I only saw a little I think he's way too sensible to get elected. He strikes me as not playing the political games that 99% of the rest of them. Wish I had of heard more of it.
