GOPers (0.00 / 0)

Two points stood out to me.  Ron Paul got into a knock down drag out on the Iraq War stating that instead of hanging in because of "honor" we should correct our mistake and get out.  That same canard about "honor" was used to kill at least 20,000 Americans and some absurd number of Vietnamese.  When will we learn that stubborn stupidity in the course of saving face does not equate with honor.

The second point was the constant refrain by Rudy in lauding McCain.  He obviously thinks McCain is dead and he's going after his supporters.  Luntz's focus grouo (citing that) gave the debate to McCain by a wide margin.  They also consistently panned Rudy for citing his record in NY City rather than blathering on about "character."

Roddick vs Federer now in 3rd set (Federer ahead 7-6 7-6) more interesting than Leno.

Blogged about debate at my site but gotta recommend Ana Marie Cox liveblog.

Actual debate broke out between Huckabee and Paul.
