I didn't watch it, having been occupied trying to chase down a story that turned out to be false, so here is an amalgam of the best from the other political blogs:
** Mitt Romney comes out of the debate swinging,
early on.
He asked Huckabee: ""Did you raise taxes in your state by half-a-billion dollars?" He later said: "Mike you make up facts faster than you talk, and that says something."
When Huckabee said his tax hikes had "raised jobs," Romney "
nailed him."
Huckabee
seemed to get a little frustrated.
** John McCain
took a shot at the experience of governors...
** ABC
noticed that the Fox News crawl noted that Giuliani lives with his "current" wife. (As opposed to living with a former wife.)
** How much does Romney sound like Barack Obama here?
"[McCain is] an agent of change, and worked hard to bring change to certain areas, but Washington is fundamentally broken and one of the reasons I'm running for president, i believe that my lifetime of work in the private sector and in the voluntary sector and as a governor has taught me how to bring about fundamental change.
