Here is our chance to see and hear Perry for the first time and maybe get a better understand of Ron Paul's actual positions.

The candidates are each going to have 20 mins to talk about their platforms. We'll see how many can fill that time with real content.

It is being streamed live on www.cnn.com/live and www.townhill.com

Cain is wrong about people not leaving the country. The ones with deep pockets who we need to stay are leaving They are headed to places like Scandinavia, New Zealand, Panama, Costa Rica and other places with stronger economies and currencies.

I thought Cain sounded awesome!

The people leaving the country will not be giving up their citizenship. If they are still earning money, they will still pay taxes.

Not entirely, nor significantly.

I am not a Bachmann supporter, but she is a great speaker and yes, Cain was very good. I turned it off before Romney started his interview.

You should have listened to Romney. He changed his stances yet again on a handful of issues.

Did you hear what Cain said about the Federal Reserve (which isn't surpirsing because he was once a bankster Federal Reserve type in KY)? He said he would "fix" the Federal Reserve but didn't give any details as to HOW. Also did you know he has admitted he was in FAVOR of TARP? It just shows that running a pizza chain does not make you an expert on the American Economy.

Unless every sole prorietor and small business with between 2 and 50 employees in Massachusetts only comprises 8% of the people in the state, he was wrong about the number of people in MA affected by Romneycare. Some of my small business clients received letters saying their deductibles were too high and didn't comply with Romneycare (and they were then forced to spend more money to buy a plan with a lower deductible that the GOVERNMENT thought they should have). Romney is way too slick for me and a major flip-flopper (and liar).
