Entertaining so far. Especially when Guiliani got personal with Romney, even though he has the Bernard Kerik situation over his head. The questions are pretty good.</p>
I think McCain made a mistake when he was singling out Paul on isolationism. Saying that American appeasement led to WW2? When did America become part of Europe?</p>

I meant that they would get so caught up in their bitch fests that a third party could take a rise, but from what I saw, that didn't and wasn't going to happen.</p> I don't think Paul will be able to rise up and get the Republican nomination, so I think he'll end up as the Libertarian nomination with Romney as the Republican nominee at this point. There was no substance behind Guliani making a good president. He's just a corrupt guy who would drive the American economy down further....oh yeah..9/11...crime in NY.....can't forget about those great things! Not a big fan of Romney, but he'd be better than Guliani and Clinton, but I still am holding out hope that somehow its Obama (DEM) vs. Paul (REP) in the Genereal Election.</p> </p>
Mike Huckabee is the shit.</p> Seriously though, he impressed me tonight. Plus, he's got the support of Chuck Norris. What else could you ask for?</p>

Romney has the resume to be a pretty good president. He ran the Olympics a few years back, so he has something resembling foreign-policy experience.

He supports giving them the in state tuition rates for state colleges, which they rightfully deserve. Its not their fault, no need to punish the children for what their parents did, America should be above that. I found that entire United States military child comparison completely assinine. Why should the children of the US military get special benefits? Those children can get the in state tuition rates in their states of residency. No need for them to get in state tuition rates in every state in the United States even though they aren't in state, just because they are children of the United States military. Those children of the immigrants usually will be passing the requirement for in state tuition, which from what I've seen, is establishing a domicile in that state for one year.</p> </p>

^^^ Sure, why not?</p> As long as we don't allow non-citizens to vote, they should be basically treated fairly.</p> </p>
Why is the military being brought into this? Thats just a powerful draw word he is using.</p> Can't you have state residency, but not United States residency? Can these immigrants have citizenship to the state, but not the nation? Doesn't the United States work on a system of dual-citizenship?</p> Also, I would like to know why Romney thinks the children of the US Military should get special privledges over normal people like myself, who are actually US Citizens. I don't get the in state rates for Texas....why shold a child in Wisconsin who is the son of a person in the US military get in state tuition rates for Texas when they live in Wisconsin?</p>
