Tonights MSNBC Republican debate thread

[GeorgiaPeach]

They keep showing Mitt's one liner on the Clintons. They are saying that Mitt Romney dominated, rested and ready Pat Buchanan is now saying.

Mike Huckabee speaks in real language, concrete terms. (Pat says) Mitt looks Presidential. (Pat says)

Self inflicted wounds by McCain and Giuliani. (Commentator) Romney took shot that McCain voted against tax cuts. (Pat)

Romney has pivoted away and now running as outsider. (Pat)

They said that the debate was more civilized this evening, less "red meat."

Thanks Georgia Peach.

[GeorgiaPeach]

Happy to do it Delta.

They are saying that the Democrats do not want Romney because he can run as the outsider against Washington. Chris says that Romney came out of the shoot with confidence.

Asking for people to text their votes. Laughing about Ron Paul support. Not rude laughter, just how his supporters are active to access the poll voting.

Romney beat Ron Paul in a call in poll by one point

Easily the night went to Romney

[GeorgiaPeach]

Talking about Romney and how much money he has spent. The McCain people said that they would not attack him on that because if he wants to spend his money to run, that is fine. Talking about many people of wealth are politicians and many are in Washington.

Peachs and Populist deserve a round of applause for their great
on line reporting of the debate

Peaches and Populist did do a great job of accurate and quick summation of salient points!
Impressive reporting by both!

[GeorgiaPeach]

It was a nice discussion for all of us to be a part of tonight, whether you watched the debate or just read the comments. Exciting days ahead.

Thank you to all of you and rest well.

If you missed the debate, it is being replayed now on MSNBC.
