Yeah, well, they were about even, but fox made it look like Huckabee won. They cut off Paul's last closing line 2 times, like it never happened!

Even on the size of their applause uneven on plausibility of the message.
This is the most wild and bias debate so far. I can't believe Fox is exposing themselves like this. People will endear to him because he is being bullied, he's an underdog, he has all the right stances and they are using weak arguments against him. If he had no support in the audience then he could be marginalised but many supporters have slipped through and are showing everyone that's its okay to support him while the media and other candidates gang up on him.
I know you know this but I just like saying it because I am very happy...This is going to be very big when all these supporters get gipped and see the oligarchy for themselves.

They are sure pumping up Iran as a major threat. The leaders in Iran want to make profit out of their oil. Profit is more important to them than being able to develop nuclear scuds. They would never be able to compete with Israel when it comes to nuclear warheads. Nor could they ever match Pakistan on that issue. It sounded like the candidates were talking to children about a bogeyman called Iran. The Iranian government has ZERO to gain by developing nuclear warheads. The euro is a much much bigger threat to America.

Unfortunately, a terrorist attack may convince people, through raw emotion, into re-supporting an individual that will fight against the false perpetrators of the attack. (Iran) Or maybe it won't?

But actually, they are correct about Iran being a great threat to America. Iran is planning (or is already doing so) to sell all their oil in euros and other currencies. THAT is a real threat. And I wonder why Iran want to do that. The Iranian government must be very aware of how sensitive the U.S. dollar is due to its total dependency on oil. It would be foolish to start to sell their oil in other currencies. One reason could be Japan:
"Earlier on Wednesday, the media reported that Iran has started talks with a Japanese refiner to receive the payments in euro or yens instead of US Dollars. ... Japan is a major importer of Iranian crude and reportedly buys 486,000 barrels of oil per day out of Iran's production of about 3.8 million bpd."
From: http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=5092
"With speculation mounting over the possibility of a US- or Israeli-led military attack of Iran sometime later this year, it has been suggested that real motivation for US antipathy towards the Iranian government has little to do with concerns that Tehran is developing nuclear weapons. Some commentators have instead suggested that Iran�s real Iranian threat to the US and its economy is that, in defiance of the US administration, it is attempting to establish an oil �bourse� (exchange) in March of this year which would enable oil to be traded in euros. This would move oil sales away from their usual denomination in dollars and would, it is argued, undermine the American currency with grave consequences for the US economy."

Yes, it makes sense when you see McCain who is down and out, taking all the wrong positions and is still marching forward.
To be honest though I think they are just going to make Fred Thompson out to be the dark horse with the puplic support and he will bow down to hillary.
