In almost every debate so far, it has seemed as if the first half was dominated by the media frontrunners, and Ron Paul dominates the second half. This was particularly true last night. I assume that it's because the first half is where all the candidates want to throw out their witty one liners and canned attacks, but I think Ron needs to prepare himself to be more noticeable in the type of banter that goes on in the beginnings of the debates.

No, it's because the moderators give most of the questions in the first half to the "front runners" because that's when most people watch. They save giving RP most of his questions for the second half for obvious reasons. It's like what the thugs at CBS did during the internet portion of their debate.
