Again and again, Gingrich and Santorum avoid cheap slogans and talk substance. The former speaker just made lots of sense on Pakistan, without any cant.

I wouldn't mind a Newt Presidency at ALL.
He's brilliant, he knows what to do, and he loves this country.
He's running now with a "I've got not one darn thing to lose here anymore" spirit.
Hey. I can relate. To that attitude.
He also mentioned a bit about another contract with America. I was just getting involved in following all things political back in the early 90's when the "original" contract with America was taking place, and Newt and the Republicans back then were pretty great for the most part. I really respected what they were trying to do, and did.

Though, I don't think Newt can win.. too many people don't like him. But hey! You never know.

My both choice is Newt Gingrich and Gov. Rick Perry. Gingrich did well on the debate tonight. I hope that Romney will not get the nominee in 2012 because the Democrats and the liberal news media want him to run because of Romneycare vs. Obamacare are alike. Romney is not a real true conservative.

Of all the people on stage, Newt's my guy, followed by Gov. Perry, then Santorum. Romney's lies about Perry on SocSec sound like Axelrod wrote the attacks. Shameful.

Michele's my congresslady. It's sad seeing her toil on stage. She's a better TEA Party activist than presidential candidate.

Finally, everyone's talking up Cain's night. I can't get into his 9-9-9 plan because you can't have a national sales tax AND a federal income tax. It's one or the other or it's a nightmare waiting to happen.
