I Tivo'd the debates and just finished watching them.
It was a farce...whoever said that was right on the money.
RP had less time than any other debate he's been in. Which is a sham.
But it wasn't a primetime debate, so I'm not overly concerned about it.
I spent all weekend with some very good friends and managed to convince most of them to 'just listen' to RP. My best friend is totally on board, minus his stance on just getting out of Iraq. He thinks we owe it to the Iraqi's not to trash their country and then just walk away. He said 'we have a moral obligation to them, because we made this mess.'
I said "we have a moral obligation not to kill 18 year old american kids in a war that is a lie, and to spend that money here to take care of Americans who need it." I think he got my point. :cool:
That all being said....I think we all have to realize something.
Not everyone is going to understand RP and his viewpoints.
Not everyone is going to agree with us about our country and the mess it's in.
Some people you just can't get through to.
Regarding the debates where there were boos, and Romney attacking RP:
First off, Romney is a fu^&ing joke. He is such a dork, he followed Guilianis' footsteps and attacked RP during the debate. He's so f'ing stupid, he didn't even learn that RP actually GAINED support after Guiliani bashed him, plus his 'attack about 9/11 on RP' was pathetic anyway.
The boos tell me one thing...PEOPLE ARE LISTENING to RP. He's becoming a legitimate contender, otherwise nobody would have said anything or bothered to boo him. THIS IS GOOD NEWS....they are getting scared....
I also believe we need to not 'hinge' on every little thing that he says or does, or if he answered appropriately or if he wasn't firm enough during speeches or debates. I firmly believe that Ron Paul will get his 'backbone' as more and more people stand behind him and he begins to actually realize how strong his campaign is becoming.
