He always clearly makes the distinction between legal and illegal immigration.

McCain says his colleagues call him the Sheriff. Then he's running for the wrong office.

:24 - Fred Thompson draws the first big applause of the night. He goes after Huckabee, saying that "He would be a Christian leader, but that he would also bring about liberal fiscal policies..." Um, yep. ... Is this the first time Huckabee has been hit for being endorsed by the NEA?

Huck dodged tax-raising question.

Thompson: criticized Huck on tax pledge.

Most think that they were testing our response, methods, etc.

That's basically what Thompson said. He said they were testing our resolve.

They were really concerned that they perhaps planted mines in that area!!!

Notice how Thompson did not work in immigration in his response, unlike Romney.
