Same old stuff from Rudy McRomney. Speaking of Rudy and McCain - they seemed sort of like a little "Old Boys" group on stage. God, it was such bullshit watching them. I shrug my shoulders and bury my head in my hands each time I see the polls putting them at the forefront. It's ridiculous, IMO.
The guy from Wisconsin, can't remember his name -- his speech on healthcare and our need for more prevention rather than SICK-care was bad-ass. That being said, overall - he still does not impress me.
I think Tom Tancredo shot himself in the foot with his comment on closing off most Legal Immigration. I really think it will hurt him with moderates. Giuliani, for all of his faults, came off with a pretty good response to him and whipped up some thunder. I don't mind Tancredo for the most part, but I had never heard that out of him and that is something I'm not really for.
Ron Paul made the most sense out of anyone -- YET AGAIN. Maybe I'm nuts but I guess I'm the only one hearing the sanity in each of his words. I don't even have any quotes of his to give you. If people aren't seeing the truth in his words, then there is really not much more to be done at this point. Ron Pauls only weakness is he is not hitting back hard enough. He is making the Kerry mistake of hoping his points will make their fight on their own.
Overall, it's about what I expected. Ron Paul makes sense, the others throw peanuts, and Rudy and the gang exude cockiness.
Other thoughts?

It's a funny thing with Ron Paul... the big name political pundits have from the beginning written him off but he always shows good numbers during and right after the debates.
