perry is surprisingly very poor in this format. he certainly isn't as quick of mind as Romney, huntsman, paul, gingrich, or cain. How he is championed as the R savior is mindboggling.

IMO Huntsman is running this time around to build his national name recognition. He's a decade younger than perry/romney. Huntsman's real run will be in 2016 or 2020 when the tea party is less in power. He's doing well.

Ron Paul of course makes the most sense but his debate delivery has be shaky tonight. I feel that he does a great job in shaping the discussion but his son Rand could really blend Ron's philosophy in a more voteable package.

Rick Perry is a Globalist Bilderberg plant... It would be pure horror if he became President...

It'd be worse than Obama.

Man, Huntsman is bringing it tonight to be honest.

I find Huntsman not likeable. He seems like he might fit better in the Democratic party. I have enjoyed Ron Paul tonight, but maybe not for the reasons his supporters have.

Why do you find Huntsman "not likable"? Just out of curiosity. I wish that Paul didn't flail his arms so much when talking. It makes him look like the nutty professor. I'm surprised that his handlers don't tell him this. I love how RP speaks to truth.
