Republican Debate

Wednesday, June 06, 2007

John Fund, columnist at the Wall Street Journal and author, Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy (Encounter, 2004), analyzes the third Republican presidential debate, then Dan Coats, former senator from Indiana and surrogate for the McCain presidential campaign, Congressman Buck McKeon (R-CA), representing Mitt Romney, and former Congresswoman Susan Molinari (R-SI), a senior advisor to the Giuliani campaign, assess their candidates' performances. Finally, Republican listeners tell us which candidate they are leaning towards.

Listen to the debate.

    Once again the media focuses on the big 3 and ignore the mavericks...Ron Paul...He has a solid platform that he has stood by for years....and he gets marginalized by you guys...

    I have to agree with Joe Corrao the media keeps focusing on the big 3. I'm a registered democrat and I want to change in order to vote for Ron Paul in the republican primary. Ron Paul is the real mainstream candidate. He's the only one that speak to the people not to the corporations.

    funniest moment - when THOMPSON: said " Bush has tremendous characteristics. He's very honest. He's very straightforward. I would put him out on a lecture series, talking to the youth of America about honesty, integrity, perseverance, passion, and serving the public."

    I'm not sure if America's youth is ready for that lesson

    and what about this one "I’m Rudy Giuliani. I agree with the motto of your state, “Live free or die.” And I think it would be a pretty good one for our time."

    I think I heard the audience groan.
