Talk about it here. Watch it live on CNN or
CNN.com.
5:42 PM PT: Bachmann once again says her economic plan would have been to throw the country into default. She says lifting the debt ceiling was giving Obama a blank check. Yeah, uh, except Congress approves all spending.
5:43 PM PT: This is awesome:
@ThadMcCotter: Tigers 0 - White Sox 1, Top of 2nd. Go Tigers!
Couldn't have said it better.
5:45 PM PT: It's the return of Mitt Romneybot: Romney's way of saying we need good education: We want "institutions that create fantastic human capital."
5:48 PM PT: Ron Paul goes after Rick Perry: says Perry doubled taxes in Texas, and increased spending, and that 170,000 of the jobs he "created" were government jobs. Perry responds by saying he's cut taxes by billions, and that people love going to Texas, so Paul couldn't be right. I get the feeling Perry was lying, but I also get the feeling his target audience won't give a damn.
5:50 PM PT: Every time Newt Gingrich opens his mouth, I think to myself: "Who is this guy, what is he doing there, and what the hell is he trying to say." He just LOVES the sound of his own voice.
5:53 PM PT: We're at the second commercial break of what has been a fairly boring debate. More thoughts on that in the next thread.
