Yes. From what I saw was the rudest the most "me first" candidates got easily the most time, the bullies. The non sense over the definition nation of amnesty was just silly, showing what empty suits Mcain, Romm, and Gul were.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Illegal immigration is burning issue for some, but some are like me I am concerned you report Ron Paul lost his grip on his own message in the debate was it foreign policy? that is crucial issue
O Peppa, what a lovely angel you are
tom007: That never helps, does it? I love your dry wit, tom! In these surreal times dry humor seems to be the only humor around.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" evidently abc is about to show it all again (after local news here), in case you want to watch or tape it.
Palo, dear - I am not trying to change your mind about this.
well as you know I watched it visually I noticed Ron Paul wrote notes, while others talked
how kind and gracious of you buckeye LOL my mind drifted off praying for Ron Paul the whole of the debate for only a minute or two
Right. I think some people are very bothered by that, especially women. Ron Paul didn't seem to know the rules of the game, though.
I try to speak the language of my audience, my dear. Heh!
Is there a youtube of this yet? :)

I noticed Ron Paul wrote notes, while others talked "and when push comes to shove, it is the content of what people say which matters, no?" Well you and I would like to believe that - but maybe not. The emotive content unfortunately seems to move the political masses "I noticed Ron Paul wrote notes, while others talked " I did not notice that - He very well could be getting info to bomb the others with their own words in the next debates. He has done that in the past. Ron does seem to be methodical, and that is a good thing.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Give it overnight.
Tancredo did not appear to be very confident in himself at any of the debates I saw. He probably turned a lot of people off.

Palo, I heard RP's response on the illegal immigration question. I thought he did rather well. He said cut off all benefits like education and health care ( except for a life and death emergency). He also said the reason that there is so much fury in America regarding illegal immigrants is that middle class taxpayers are stuck with paying all the perks to illegals, freebies that fedgov does not extend to Americans themselves. RP immediately got cut off by the GuiliHucksterMCain girls - who all in unison spouted off that it's not the economic costs of illegals to Americans that THEY worried about( of course the Girls are not middle class with no income tax loopholes)but rather the national security dangers (???) that a porous border posed. hahaha - oh the Girls always worry about another 9/11 event taking place...
Yes, good account of what happened.
thanks Kiki, I want to watch it with sound this time I think my feelings lead me astray because I care so much about how Ron Paul did
but... but... but... I want it now. lol

I just read an AP view of the GOP debate. It is a rather long article and Paul got only this concerning the debate... "Paul, mounting a quixotic campaign, stuck to his insistence that the war should end."
Speaking of rude...how about McCain's comment "we're going to miss you tomorrow night, Ron..."? *sshole. I can't imagine what kind of person would vote for McCain.
McCain reveals himself as one of the cruelest people in politics, as far as I can tell.
(Tom) Well you and I would like to believe that - but maybe not. (Palo) I noticed Ron Paul wrote notes, while others talked (Tom) I did not notice that - Ron does seem to be methodical, and that is a good thing. O Tom I love your post, altho I don't know why? Ya know, the beauty of Ron Paul is, he is not charismatic Love, Palo I am very interested in rest of your post, I did not know that
McLame is rude and uncouth, as President he would make Bush look good. I will guarantee you this, regardless which one of those people becomes the candidate, they will have the gall and arrogance to demand Paul and his following support them. Count on it.
He's very charismatic to patriots. Most Americans just want to live their lives. He needs a way to reach them. At least he knows not to make them afraid.
McCain is a worthless individual but when I said "I am putting up Ron Paul bumper sticker on truck and 2nd hand car" he only said it, because he knew I would have huge reaction!
Yes they will, and I strongly believe they will get the "your number one" finger.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Excuse me! LOL
I know what's wrong. Your husband is jealous because you focus so much attention on Ron Paul! He's getting your goat in the best way he knows how.
(Palo) Ya know, the beauty of Ron Paul is, he is not charismatic (buckeye) He's very charismatic to patriots. Most Americans just want to live their lives. He needs a way to reach them. At least he knows not to make them afraid. what an exquisite post
Two things come to mind. McLame and his rude mouth trying to demean Paul. McLame in your face, "we will stay in Iraq forever". That should open some peoples eyes that the man is unstable.
I agree with you. Also McCain comes across as insincere and frankly not too bright. He almost asks to be tripped up. His yarn about how safe Baghdad seemed to him was an invitation for the media to prove him to be a bold-faced liar. What an a** - I can't imagine why Arizonans keep re-electing that ignorant midget back to the Senate over and over again. It must be the Vietnam War POW sacrifice for God, country schtick.
Palo they will not. One only has to review Giuliani to find he jumped ship before and supported Mario Cuomo.
Scrap... Have you ever seen the video of the bomb or missile from McLames aircraft skidding across the carrier deck????
you are so psychological LOL do you think he was disappointed I didn't hit the roof last night altho between you and me, I thoought to myself, "I won't bother registering him GOP LOL tomorrow is the deadline to register GOP in Arizona
He also needs to get elected. I say keep trying to awaken the patriot in everyone, but also LEAD IN REAL TIME. He's not used to that, but he can do it. He's used to propelling a movement, not leading it.
Can we trust you, palo?
(Palo) When Ron Paul is the candidate, these jerks will have to decide if they will support him (Cynicom) Palo they will not. you are right on this one
(Buckeye) Can we trust you, palo? you read my mind On the other hand respect for free vote, means I should tell him I think I will go with not mentioning it I am getting mixed messages, he is overjoyed when Ron Paul does well in the primary I kept my mouth shut!!!!
Actually, I was hoping you'd do the right thing if you promised already. You'll have time to work on changing his mind later. Also, it's the democratic thing to do. Freedom will be upheld, even if in a negative way. And so will domestic tranquility, which involves the pursuit of happiness and so forth.

#61. To: buckeye (#53)
not involved at all
Wouldn't Tancredo have done better if there were masses of people for who it is burning issue?
I don't know
I've never followed the issue
just witnessed what a burning issue it was on LP
on which topic?
if it is illegal immigraton, I don't care
Love, Palo
#62. To: Peppa (#59)
Your post means so much to me

I love you
Palo
#63. To: scrapper2 (#57)

From what I saw was the rudest the most "me first" candidates got easily the most time, the bullies.
Ron Paul was not pushy
but it seemed OK, it did seem like he had time to talk and express himself
and when push comes to shove, it is the content of what people say which matters, no?
Love, Palo
#67. To: buckeye (#65)
Palo, dear - I am not trying to change your mind about this.
I apprecaite it
LOL I remembered your post about "happenings" for Ron Paul
and I started to giggle
I thought maybe Buckeye has a teensy bit of hippy in him :)
Love, Palo

#76. To: kiki, buckeye, Peppa, ALL (#64)
evidently abc is about to show it all again (after local news here), in case you want to watch or tape it.
I suspect Ron Paul did a lot better than it appears
I've watched debates with Ron Paul before, and I go with my feelings at first
I am disappointed he didn't do better
but when I look at it objectively (see the whole picture) I realize he did great
I want so badly for him to do well
that it obscures a true objective picture for me
Love, Palo

He very well could be getting info to bomb the others with their own words in the next debates.
He has done that in the past.
It just seems so real and down to earth
so it is all about content
and I think this is great

"we're going to miss you tomorrow night, Ron..."?
*sshole.
I can't imagine what kind of person would vote for McCain.
guess who is aaying he will vote for McCain?
my husband!
I offered to register him GOP on the computer so he could vote in AZ primary for Ron Paul
and he said "I'm thinking of voting for McCain"
I don't get McCain's appeal at all
but as I said to my husband, "free will, free thought, free vote, vote for whoever you want"
and he said he will put up McCain sticker, I said "I will never ride in the truck then"
lol maybe it is fun for a husband to have a wife who is passionate Ron Paul supporter,
you can always get her to "have a fit" :)
#86. To: Cynicom (#83)
they will have the gall and arrogance to demand Paul and his following support them. Count on it.

yes for patriots, Ron Paul is perfect in every way

I know what's wrong.
Your husband is jealous because you focus so much attention on Ron Paul!
He's getting your goat in the best way he knows how.
I never thought of that
when he told me he was thinking of voting for John McCain
"if he's going to vote for McCain :)"
I guess he won't be able to vote for McCain
he will have to drive me to vote for Ron Paul
(I am New Yorker, I haven't learned to drive yet
I am bad girl
#95. To: palo verde, Cynicom (#89)
yes for patriots, Ron Paul is perfect in every way
#96. To: palo verde (#94)
LOL tomorrow is the deadline to register GOP in Arizona
#97. To: Cynicom (#92)
I don't thnk they will support Ron Paul when he is the candidate
Altho there seemed to be nice warmth between Ron Paul and Fred Thompson during debate
a friendly vibe there
Love, Palo
#98. To: buckeye (#96)
(Palo) LOL tomorrow is the deadline to register GOP in Arizona
it is a dilemma
I can tell him tomorrow is the deadline, and offer to register him on computer
if I thnk he will change his mind and vote for Ron Paul at the primary
But if I think he will vote for John McCain
I won't mention tomorrow is the deadline
but he said "me and Eric talked at the pool, Eric likes McCain too
"and Eric said 'ideal ticket is McCain and Condi Rice' "
#99. To: palo verde (#98)
#100. To: palo verde (#98)
I think I will go with not mentioning it
