Just finished watching he GOP debate. While none of the projected front runners were there I think can can immediately throw out 3 of the projected runners. Santorum, Paulenty, and Johnson have no shot and will garner less than 10% of the vote in any primary they are in outside of their home state. Johnson is just not electable on a national scale whether you like his plans or not. Santorum is a theocrat and will turn away any and all atheist conservatives. Paulenty is just another politician who grates at my soul with his political banter. He said all the right things, none of them his own or genuine.


Ron Paul and Herman Cain definitely set themselves apart from the other 3. While I dont agree with many of the things Paul stands for, he comes off as genuine. That alone will garner some votes. I think his undoing will be his very liberaterian views on drugs and prostitution.

Herman Cain is my, somewhat biased, choice among those that debated tonight. His approaches are common sense problem solving. Identify the problem, research the problem, form solutions, see the solution through. Not a difficult process, but one that isnt used in DC very often.


Am I the only one that watched?


BTW, debate was sponsored by Fox News and the South Carolina GOP. Moderators were Juan Williams, Brett Baier, a blond chick I cant remember, and Chris Wallace.
