Romney

Really feeling like my investment of time and heart in the Mittster is not being rewarded here. I was expecting him to effectively demagogue the immigration issue versus McCain. But he can’t even speak comprehensibly. I can’t even tell what he’s talking about. Each of them are like a matadors sticking those long sticks into the Mitt bull.

I mean, I can’t take this. Romney’s making Rudy look good.

8:18 PM … I’m wondering if Rudy is realizing that his dreams of presidential glory are over and so he figures he might as well re-embrace some of the reasonable things he did as Mayor.

8:22 PM … Huckabee’s argument makes so much sense. Illegals will agree to deport themselves because if they don’t and we catch them we’ll deport them. Makes sense.

8:25 PM … Finally my guy Mitt is getting his shoulder into it.

8:26 PM … Whatever happens in this election, whoever wins, we’ll all be able to agree that the complete humiliation of Fred Thompson made it all worthwhile.

8:28 PM … This is killing me. I don’t think Romney’s embrace of Barack Obama as the new centerpiece of his presidential agenda just isn’t going to cut it.

8:37 PM … I think this debate format is good in as much as that it has clearly made each of the candidates forget they’re involved in an election. Especially Thompson.

8:39 PM … Rudy: Ike committed the US to putting a man on the moon; Nixon got it done.
