    Ahhhh yes.  Scintillating debate.  Hahaha…. Hey Donald Dump?  Have you figured out how little you are respected yet?  Except maybe by the far right wing nut cases on that comment on this site?  Moron.

    Good for Bachman and Romney following the principled lead of Huntsman and Ron Paul.

    The dignity of the Office of the Presidency demands better than an Apprentice Debate run by a possum headed bankrupt like Trump.

    Not to worry, the Donald is a ratings machine.  Millions will tune in to see him referee the frothy encounter between Newt and pRick Santorum.  The Donald has such a good relationship with “the blacks” I’m sure he can count on their support.

    Maybe Trump can get the 999 guy to rejoin the race and participate in the debate.

    Maybe Newt can debate his three wives.

    Or better yet Newt has fip flopped on all his positions.  He should just debate himself.

    It’s beginning to fall apart for Donald Trump and he looks more foolish now, than he did when this was first announced.

    Well done Birthers/Tea Baggers…

    …You are doing the GOP Party proud.

    Trump is Trumped by his own narcissism…

    I guess Michelle Bachmann couldn’t find her long form birth certificate on time.

    Trump will probably ask Snooki to co-host with him so that the ratings wouldn’t be so horrible.

    Congresswoman Michele Bachmann is a strong, independent, intelligent, attractive, articulate, powerful and accomplished conservative woman.  She has been selected by Forbes Magazine as one of the 100 most powerful women in America.  She is ranked number 22 behind Oprah (14), Michelle Obama (8) and Hillary (2).  She has also been slected by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential Americans, male or female.  This terrifies the liberals who want their women wither to be “left wing kooks” or remain quiet, barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen.  Michele is living the life which Gloria Steinham and the “Womens Libbers” envisioned for women four decades ago.  She has an outstanding education, a husband, a family and a phenominally successful career.  She has it all!  She is a great role model for American women!

    The Donald would be better off having Kristin Wiig do her SNL parody of Michele Bachmann for the debate.
