If you watched the republican debate last night what's your take on it. Who were the winners and losers in your opinion? Any surprises?

For me, I thought Gingrich took himself right out of the running with his obnoxious attitude. Don't care for Huntsman and can't see what he has to offer. I hate to say it but as much as I like Ron Paul, some of his ideas scare me. I like Herman Cain but I just don't think he has the experience or knowledge of world affairs to be president. Santorum has always been a favorite of mine and I agree with his stand on the issues , but I don't think he's electable. He's not that well liked and if a man can't hold on to his senate seat in his own state I don't think he could muster enough support for the presidency

Now for the winners. Even though I don't particularly care for Mit Romney I have to give him an A for his debating skills. He sounded more sincere than in the past and he seems competent but I still don't trust him. Michelle Bachman remains my favorite of the bunch but have to say Pawlenty impressed me too. That was the surprise of the night for me. This was the first time I've actually heard more from him than a few soundbites in the news. I could see supporting him . Interesting that my two favorites of the night seemed to get a bit testy with each other. Maybe they should kiss and make up and run together.
