Anyone watch it? Moderators focused on Perry and Romney; go figure.
Ron Paul got 46% of the MSNBC poll results. http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/09/07/7658608-who-do-you-think-won-the-republican-debate-at-the-reagan-library |

All others are complete nutters. |

at 10:25 AM, Thursday September 8, 2011 EDT Ron Paul had a chance to make an impression until Perry jumped in, now the field has to go back to being all crazy.
Seriously though, cable news and media in general really needs to stop driving stories so much. The power they wield over the narrative is fucking unconscionable. |

at 11:18 AM, Thursday September 8, 2011 EDT Ron Paul is supposed to be a constitutionalist, but he seems not to know everything the Constitution says. For example, the Constitution clearly says that bankruptcy is exclusively federal jurisdiction. He seemed not to know that.

at 11:46 AM, Thursday September 8, 2011 EDT Sure Article 1 Section 8 talks about the federal governments authority to set uniform bankruptcy laws. The keyword being "uniform".
What part of the debate are you referring to. If he did contradict that; I'm not aware of where he did. |

Second question: if he were president, would you suck his dick in homage? |
