| Ron Paul 2008  libertarian Fuck Big Government
| Actually next to Paul, Huckabee has the best understanding of foreign policy. Other than that I hate Huckabee. The Republicans disgusted me in this debate not including Paul. Their comments on Iran reminded me of ignorant simpleton good ol' boys talking politics at the country club. The party is headed in a horrible ignorant direction. | ||||

I understand there's a large conservative base who feel we've gone wrong on foreign policy and want to hear a conservative admit that. I'm pretty sure Huck understands that as well. But that's about as far as his knowledge of foreign affairs gets.

Let's look at Iraq. It's taken some modifications on the approach, but now things seem to be working. Liberals, on the other hand, wanted to completely leave it behind. Now, compare what's going on now to the results of leaving it...what would be better? IMO, what's happening over there now is much preferred than the chaos that would result from leaving it. | ||||

Which he may have, I haven't seen it all either. I found the clips online and only saw the first 10 minutes so far. I can't bring myself to watch all the Republican debates because I don't plan on voting Republican this year.

| Fox had a control group of moderate and conservative voters in South Carolina. Thompson won the debate although some said it was "too little too late." They also made it clear Ron Paul was the worst! His insane conspiracy rant about Iran got the most negative measured response in any debate!  McCain also did well in the debate and has the momentum, but Thompson is not out of it yet. He needs a good newsworthy result in South Carolina if he can get it? Even a solid second place would do.

If anyone votes for McCain, they might as well say AMNESTY is OK. Because that is exactly what they will get with a McCain vote- illegal aliens being given the OK to stay in America and receive everything their heart desires. | ||||

 It's also very possible the Republican nominee won't be Romney, Huckabee or McCain | ||||
