That debate was worse than the YouTube, I'd expect that out of YouTube, but CNN, man they keep digging a hole for themselves.

Romney sounded like anyone who does not have a good answer to an accusation. Attack the messenger. I was not impressed with him at all. He made both of them look bad. I think he was just causing trouble and from the coverage on the news, he probably succeeded. He did not succeed in getting my vote. The winner in that debate was Huckabee. A few well chosen words is much better than a lot of nothing.

Are you joking? McCain is an arrogant jerk. I think Romney was way too nice to the old guy if anything. Remember, CNN asked about the dispute. Which by the way, independent news sources AGREE McCain is lying about the facts. What was Romney supposed to do?

Could you link me to those sources? I haven't had enough fair and balanced reporting of the race, as of late.

Thats right cnn kept it going, Romney should have finally said look my answer was clear you can go back and listen to the actual interview and I am not going to be baited into this childish back and forth with some one who has nothing of his own to offer.

Yep. That would have been nice. I think they just turned themselves into Obama and Hillary. Still not sure which one will look best in a pants suit.

McCain looked like an lying arrogant ass. I went and listened to the interview. he did not say what McCain is accusing him of. if anything he said we shouldn't have a with drawl date because the enemy would wait us out. I am sorry, but Romney is right, he is old school government, dirty tricks and all. All he said was, my service, Iraq, war, buzzword and wouldn't let it go even after Romney corrected him several times. All the man has to offer is his service, nothing more. And people voting for him on name recognition is irresponsible being "nice".

While McCain was busy being a foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution, Ron Paul gave us Reagan.
