any thoughts?
Mine:

Damn, Romney looks like a robo candidate; his suit fit better than anyone, and his answers, while not enlightening, seemed to be well spoken and crafted by a committee of Hollywood movie writers.
speaking of which- boooh thompson- none of these candidates are that great, and everyone is hoping for someone to stand out, but the way he handled tonight I thought was in poor taste.
McCain looked old, his answers were contradictory to his earlier statements, but everyone is so deferential to him and FOX News spun it as a McCain victory
"So, Giuliani, what do you have to say about abortion/Iraq/immigration?" "When I was mayor of the largest city in America, I reduced crime dramatically"
I really enjoyed huckabee vs. ron paul- they both seemed the most genuine despite their differences on the iraq war- you could tell that that was exactly the firmly held conviction of each of them and it was not polished political soundbites
hunter, brownback, and the others... kinda scary at times, and no chance.
