I'll look for it tomorrow. RP usually is funny, even when he is serious.

It's been raining here all week. I like it too but its starting to get redundant.

Asked to address the housing crisis, one of the major problems facing Florida voters, Gingrich began by claiming that Romney was knowingly and "unfairly" attacking him on his consulting record for mortgage giant Freddie Mac, sparking a fiery back-and-forth over which front-runner has had a closer relationship with troubled lenders.

Gingrich claimed that Romney had profited off of investments in both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In turn, Romney tried to explain the nature of his investments, quickly pointing out that he may own bonds, but anything he owns is controlled by a "blind trust," and in fact Gingrich also has investments in the mortgage lenders.

"Comparing my investments to his investments is like comparing a tiny mouse to a giant elephant," Gingrich said, playing on Romney's wealth.

Been watching all the clips. Very interesting and I think Newt came out on top between him and Romney. Haven't seen much about Santorum or Paul yet. I'm sure they got a lot less air time.

I thought they all did well, actually.

I thought Santorum did the best, as he seemed very knowledgeable, passionate and sincere.

Paul was funny and actually, not too kooky. Except when he was asked what he would say to Raul Castro if he had him on the phone. His answer: "I'd ask him what he was calling about". Lol.

Romney and Newt were fine, but Wolf was really pushing them to attack each other, and they obliged. Not very informative, and I thought the worst moments of the debate.
