Default Tonight, Thursday debate before SC is a BIG night

Newt with the big mo', but has taken a kidney punch from the ex.

Romney having floundered in the last debate now has to show that he has the strength to stand these attacks.

Gingrich has constantly been making attacks on Romney, "I'm the better candidate because Gov. Romney..."

Romney doesn't make the same case. He just talks about himself and Obama.

Can Romney get in a bare-knuckled fight and win? Or is he just going to choke again? Play it safe.

If he can't show he's a better leader than Gingrich, well, I guess he doesn't deserve to be the nominee.

Let's break this down to something very simple.

Gingrich made Romney look like a pussy. No one wants a pussy for president.

Now we'll see if Romney can get off the ground and stop being a pussy.

and I'm not trying to be coarse here. Right after Iowa, Newt released that newspaper ad calling Romney "a timid Massachusetts moderate."

Timid is a code word for "pussy."

And Mitt has done nothing to disprove it.

Mitt's campaign is managed incompetently. You never allow an opponent to define you and to take a punch without counter-punching immediately. And the tax return issue should have been anticipated.

Right now, Mitt doesn't deserve to be president unless he can re-organize immediately and respond appropriately.

Obama will be much nastier than Newt.

If I were the incumbent, I'd like my chances against Newt also.

Finally tonight Romney did exactly what I was suggesting he do. He showed some aggression and demonstrated that he is not a pussy.

It probably gives him Florida. His performances in these last two debates.
