Either Freddie has it or doesn't.

He doesn't.

He's fabricated, lifeless and message-less.

It will be interesting to see what Fred has already forgotten from what he has been coached on for the last three weeks. All Chris Matthews has to do is ask him a question on anything that Fred hasn't been coached on, and Fred will flub worse than Bush (and that is saying a whole lot!).

I'd like to see Chris ask some basic fact questions to see how much these buffoons know about things any president should be familiar with--like the names of various leaders of major countries around the world. I suppose Fred will be able to remember the presidents of Iraq and Iran but does he know the leaders of China, Indonesia, Spain, Italy, South Africa, Burma, etc.? How about basic geography questions like how many cities in Iraq they can name. I tested myself and only came up with 13 but I doubt if Fred could manage three. "Uh Uh, Baghdad, uh, Baz-something, doh!"

David McLeod, Garland, TX — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 18:28:43 GMT

Based on the reports I've seen on his stump speeches he's been pretty uninteresting. He's attempted to put on the mantle of "super conservative ronald reagan clone" while at the same time being as vague as possible. When he opens his mouth it becomes clear that he is no Ronald Reagan. I have very low expectations of him for this debate, but I'm sure regardless of his ability to answer the actual questions he will be given as much time to speak as he wants, just like Rudy and Romney, while the other candidates are cut off.

J.D., all Fred has to do is say "there you go again" to any question for which he doesn't have an answer and the media will say he won the debate.

I'd rather they be asked to name some of the rights guaranteed in the constitution.

Take notice that Ron Paul will answer truthfully and openly. He does not need "coached" or to be rehearsed. He has had the same core beliefs and values in his 16+ years as a US Congressman.

I've turned CNBC off for life... they absolutely have excluded Ron Paul from any meaningful entry into this debate. This is the only candidate that has anything to say and by their squelching his voice he actually is winning more support. I'm sending a contribution to his campaign as we speak. Goddamn this sleazy media control of our perceived democracy.

Where is the beef? Where are the price of potatoes and wheat, oats and corn. Do they know that the US inventories are at a 26 year lows and their were 30% less people in the US and the rest of the world could not afford our prices but today they can with our money from their recall items.

How about the military complex? No not the Armed Forces but the jack booted thugs we have in our nations police departments that think it is OK to arrest and shackle a 13 year old girl and then after cuffed the super large super trooper gets to slug and then pepper spray the tiny girl with her back to him. A mother and mentally challenged sick person showing that they are in need of help being drug off by officers and shackled then left alone to die. A 70 year old great grandmother chooses to eat over watering her lawn in Orem Utah that is a desert, and then drug into court by a ordinance officer. Cheers

Rudy's brains, common sense and government/legal experience are miles ahead of the rest of the pack. A debate between him and Hillary would be laughable - a briliant mind vs an empty head. She wouldn't dare debate him one on one. The other Republicans all have the edge over Hillary (except maybe Ron Paul) but must take a back seat to Rudy as he will have Hillary's head on a platter in '08. She would have never been a NY Senator if Rudy had been able to run against her.

This debate was a joke. The so called top tier candidates got 2 minutes for what was supposed to be a 30 second answer, while Ron Paul got cut off at 28 seconds. The post show commentary wondered where the beef was, but since they concentrated on Giul, Rom, and Thom, of course they got nothing but rhetoric.

Please,Please,Please...

I want to see more of Dr.Ron Paul...

He seems to be the only one in these debates that
knows or even cares about our life, liberty, and our
pursuit of happiness.

All the others keep giving me the same old junk i've
heard time and time again, election after election.

Why doesn't he get to PARTICIPATE in these debates?
Is it just me, or is he being ignored? Why?

Why would we ignore the sound principles of government that I've heard Dr.Paul express?

I'm now hearing some of the other candidates try to incorporate the principles of Dr.Paul when they speak. The words are so shallow coming from the mouths of politicians who have not lived these principles or even know what they are speaking about.

Please...Please...Please
