And then there were five. . . Apparently, Jon Huntsman's "ticket to ride" didn't get him all the way to South Carolina. And while he and his campaign were begging for bus fare in Newark, they got robbed of the will to continue. So he's packing up his bags and heading back to China, leaving the rest of us to struggle on without his smugness. You will be missed Jon. . . by someone.
While we wait for the debate to begin, riddle me this: what movie character would you most/least want to see as President?

Excellent answer -- get rid of campaign finance laws!
Ok, what happened? Did Rick get hit on the head?
So, the border is a social issue now, too?
No Andrew, you would have a West Virginia house party.
Great Answer by Perry on boarder laws and securing the boarder.
40 year low because economy is at a 40 year low.
T-Rav, LOL! Yep. Just add "grandma".
In West Virginia, just add grandma and all the rest come with.
No, this "teaching to the test" crap is the liberal attack.
tryanmax, Welcome to the dark side!
That is actually true. As the son of an elementary teacher and principal, I have literally never met an educator who thinks NCLB was a good idea.
Oh thank God! We're done! Somebody punch Santorum.
Andrew: Eeewwwww
No child left behind is a stupid law. Gingrich is right now.
This has been interesting tonight.
I’ll once again channel my grandmother and declare the worst tie. Pretty tough tonight, they all made pretty safe selections. But there are a couple of mentionables.
Ron Paul reached into his old man closet once again.
Newt looks like he borrowed from Paul.
Brett Baier is wearing a candy cane around his neck.
Kelly Evans is quite fetching in pearls.
Not a bad answer by the Newt.
Crappy debate though. So much wasted time on idiotic questions.
Nothing about project Gunrunner, Solyndra, and the dozens of other Obamascandals.
Well, this was interesting.
I'm ranking our contestants thusly:
1) Romney
2) Perry
3) Gingrich
4) Santorum
5) Paul
Ok, I'm going to do a recap this time -- for tomorrow evening.
This was an interesting debate.
T-Rav, I'd put them in the same order.
Santorum and Paul are fighting it out to get to fifth place.
I agree with your list T-Rav.
Who is this imbecle breaking down the debate?
Dumb. Ass.
And let me add, I only put Santorum above Paul because he wasn't looney tunes 90% of the time.
Tryanmax: LOL!
Miss me yet?
Ben,
I turned off the debate when the panel starts to break down the debate. I don't need their input to understand these guys.
Remember back in the olden days when the candidates tended to attack Obama, and not each other? Good times, good times.
Egads. Gotta turn off these panelists.
Time for Alcatraz. Hope it's good.
Thanks guys for all the highly entertaining input. :^)
Whoa - What did I miss?? I go away for one little Tea Party event and there are over 425 comments??? What did I miss??
Well, I think I'm gonna knock off now. Thanks for some lively debate commenting, everyone! It was certainly more fun than the debate itself.
Joel: Good idea! They just get my blood pressure up. Time for some Alcatrazzy fun. I hope.
I'm outta here. Good night my Eskimo friends.
Yeah, I'm out too. I ripped my pants. I'm not saying it was debate related, but I'm not not saying it either.
Bev, It was stunning. They actually explained the meaning of life. The answer was so beautiful that I cried.
Andrew - Of COURSE they finally get around to explaining the meaning of all things and I miss it! Dang tea partiers! They spoil everything!!!
I vote for Briscoe County, Jr. for President!!
Great Sockpuppet Theater guys!
Allen West for VP - that would be awesome!!
Okay, so I'm a little baffled this morning. Everything I've heard so far about the debate is about how badly Romney did. Did the pundits watch the same debate as we did?
Of course, all the criticism centers on his responses to questions about PAC ads and his income taxes, the two least substantive issues brought up. But more than that, most of the criticisms feel like they were crafted ahead of the debate, with only the details left to be filled in last night.
What I can't sort out is what purpose the "Romney stumbles" narrative might serve.
tryanamax,
The only reason I can think of is to damage Romney for Obama.
TJ, I think a smart candidate would be calling Allen West right now.
tryanmax and Joel, I think it's a combination of trying to weaken Romney and it's all "inside baseball." This is what happens when the pundits all live in their own little world where they grade on the basis of minutia rather than anything people really care about.
Keep in mind, these were the same people who thought Cain kept making a fool of himself in debates even as the public was flocking to him (and who said Obama/Kerry/Gore won all their debates).
H5-0 was pretty good last night... I didn't have the energy for the debate. Thanks for the amusement. Looking forward to the wrap-up (in tinfoil?)...
OK
Fictional Presidents in comparison to the ones we have just after Ronald Reagan that would be better:
1) Rainman (at least he'd be consistent)
2)The Skipper (if he can keep Gilligan in line he should be able to handle congress)
3) Dr. Evil (just after leaving freezing - he'd think 15 million was an enormous deficit and would not spend more)
4) No. 2 from Austin Powers (he evidently had more business knowledge than the people we have now)
5)The squirrel creature from the vignettes before the Ice Age movies (at least he has the drive to go after what he wants)
If I think of more I'll let you know.
