Here We Go ...

SIMI VALLEY -- The headline from this 90-minute debate looks to be this skirmish between McCain and Romney over McCain's claim that Romney once supported a "phased timetable" for withdrawal from Iraq. Which plays to McCain's biggest strength. But considering how strongly the economy has moved to the top of voters' priorities, how many 2/5 voters are voting with Iraq on their minds?

I think Anderson Cooper did Romney's dirty work in that exchange.

I am a lifelong Republican and I can't remember when I have been more disappointed than tonite, seeing the top two contenders bickering over interpretation of what was said , and re-stating the quotes just a bit different to spin in their supposed favor. Huck has never been higher than 4th on my list, but tonite he was the only one that behaved in an executive manner, IMHO. I was also pleased with Ron Paul calling the two top dogs to task for bickering when there were important issues to address. This was a low point for me, an old guy (77) who has been a lifelong social and economic conservative. It feels like we have lost our way.
