Newt is using one of his scary words---"radical."

Will the media still call Ron Paul a dark horse if he wins?

Rick Santorum will light the people of Iowa on fire. That's radical.

Rick Perry would be a part time President.

I wish I could sign a pledge.

They are blaming the President for an obstructionist Congress.

Jon Huntsman said the tax should be flat. I say it should be round and I claim it for Queen Isabella of Spain!

Newt seems like it's beneath him to be there.

Newt worked with Habitat for Humanity. He’s a regular Jimmy Carter.

Ron Paul needs to raise his speaking fee.

There are a lot of good GSA's, Newt isn't one of them.

I am shocked...shocked that there is gambling going on in Washington!

You should have facts before you speak unless you have facts before you speak.

Rick Perry looks like he doesn't recognize what he said.

We already have a part time Congress T-Th.

Here comes the judge!

I'll bet Newt won't close the divorce court.

My favorite judge is Steven Tyler.

The audience is easily amused.

Obama followed through on the agreement signed by Bush.

Nothing could be more dangerous than stating the facts to this audience.

I declare a no flies zone between Rick Perry's ears!

Up with oil! Down with aquifer!

Texas politicians are the biggest wind makers.

Monroe Doctrine? Cuba? ¿Qué

Jon Huntsman makes too much sense.

Marriage is a relationship between a man, a woman and a corporation.

Barbaric is one of Newt's words. Bachmann shouldn't use it.

Life begins at 5 PM.

Life begins when this debate is over.

Newt is surging over his belt.

I'm still not sure who's winning.

I liked the National Anthem better when Frankie Valli sang it.

Who's winning this debate?

Let the games begin!

I am James Tripp and I want to be your next President. Am I winning?

Will the real Presidential candidate please stand up?

The greatest nation that ever "was," says Huntsman.

We should use every tool to combat terrorism, but that's no reason to vote for New Gingrich.

Do not sacrifice liberty for security unless you want to scare the American people into voting for the GOP.

I need to get a wireless phone.

The wages of sin are not enough, so I'm forming a union

Rick Perry has failed to collect intelligence.

Ron Paul can't believe he's in a debate with these bozos.

The GOP Debates were just picked up for the back 13!

Rick Perry has no understanding of foreign policy.

Bachman-1 Perry-Less than 0.

We should send the UC Davis Police in to break up the occupation of Pakistan.

"Don't complain if we kill people." You tell 'em, Newton.

By "radical leaders," Santorum means, "Democrats."

Someone from the Heritage Foundation is not a member of the audience, but a representative of one the 

sponsors of the debate.

My friend Ernie is less than a year away from getting a loud Hawaiian shirt, but that's no reason for a preemptive attack.

Santorum has relations all over the world, but he's no Herman Cain.

We should be blowing people up, not putting them back together! #MittRomney

If I'm elected President, I'm going to Disneyland!

Newt helped form a caucus before he was forced to resign his office in disgrace.

Not only will Gingrich bomb, he will change their regime. You go, girl.

If I'm elected President, I will appoint a super-duper committee!

I never heard Obama say "Y'all." #RickPerry

Brutus is an honorable man.

We'll be funding China's military, but we'll also be their suppliers. It's a job creator!

I think there should have been an opposing view to Wolf Blitzer's station identification.

Why do they keep identifying members of the Heritage Foundation as just members of the audience?

Rick Perry wants to Occupy the banks in Mexico.

Santorum has a four point plan, which is five less than nine.

What if they don't go to church, Newt? Should we let them in?

Mitt Romney is a party animal.

Rick Perry is magnetic. We must stop him.

Rick Perry is very into boots.

Now to debate which product to buy...

There is no reason to applaud for the Heritage Foundation.

Cain will not support a no fly zone in Syria; he will deliver pizza anywhere in 30 minutes.

The people asking the questions know more than the people answering them.

Regime change in Syria, Not USA. #MittRomney

"This is not just about Syria, it's about Iran..." because I don't know anything about Syria. #HermanCain

From Newt Gingrich’s answer, I think he’s been watching "24" on DVD.

It's always good to start a debate with commercials.

I want to hear Rick Perry say, "nu-cle-ar."

If Newt had a cat in his lap he'd be a good James Bond villain.

Rick Perry wants to re-invade Afghanistan with a three point plan of attack.

"How can we begin to seek peace without war?"

Jon Huntsman doesn't want to invade anybody. I don't get it.

"We don't negotiate with Democrats."

Newt wants to invade Pakistan.

Cain wishes they all could be Pakistani girls.

Rick Perry is sticking to talking points and not answering the questions. He's not fooling me.

Rick Perry went back to the talking ppoint instead of answering the follow-up.

What is Michele Bachmann mourning?

Finally someone standing up for Christianity!

Isn't it Santorum's turn to surge?

I don't agree with the positions the commercials are taking.

Nobody wants to answer the questions.

John Paul II, Newt?

This panel wants to invade Iran. Let Israel do it.

Is it torture to question a subordinate with your hand on her knee?

Perry wants to invade cyberspace.

"Everyone will be put into Obamacare." Sounds okay to me.

Herman Cain would reverse all three things, but he only named two.

Who needs the rule of law when the yahoos in the audience have pitchforks?

Let's get rid of Romneycare.

Where is Tim Pawlenty on all of this?

If you have to work to get your unemployment check, then you're not unemployed.

It's LBJ's fault!

Herman Cain will do a lot of consulting if he's elected President.

"Here's another fine mess!"

Banks that are "too big to fail" should be broken up.

is looking forward to the commercials in tonight's GOP debate.

Tonight's debate will be multimedia, but I may still fall asleep.

I think we need another GOP debate after this one.

Who produced this opening and why?

What's with the dramatic music?

Every time I see Michele Bachmann she has more make-up on her eyes than the last time I saw her.

Shouldn't @DonRickles be in this Las Vegas debate?

I disagree with Rick Santorum's position on his daughter.

Herman Cain started giving his wife the business 42 years ago.

Perry would be a job creator if he withdrew from the race and let someone else take the position.

thejamestripp James Tripp

is happy to be in Vegas.

Did you know that Michele Bachmann was a former tax attorney?

Shouldn't a tax attorney be in favor of taxes?

Herman Cain is in analysis.

My plan is better that Herman Cain's. My plan is called 9-9-9-9.

Cain's constituents don't understand him and neither do I.

Newt wants 0 capital gains so Warren Buffet doesn't have to pay anything.

We need to resurrect the Glass-Steagall Act.

There's a lot of natural gas on stage.

People in the lower class have more mobility because they're homeless.

Did Mitt Romney just say he took a crap in Massachusetts?

I don't have a name you can add care to-Obamacare, yes. Romneycare, yes. Trippcare? No.

The evolution of the mandate-1. Newt 2. Mitt 3. The President.

The commercials were longer than Cooper said they would be.

I can't wait to be e-verified!

A pizza in every pot!

these boots on the ground were made for stomping.

If you have anything nice to say about the President, don't say anything at all.

I will enforce English as the official language of this panel.

They love legal immigration as long as they're Americans.

Texas is no California.

Check his papers!

I think Herman Cain left out an ethnic group.

Dan Rather was an anchor baby. I know.

Faith is being crushed by our courts and our government which is a good thing.

We need to bring our troops home so they can occupy America!

If nobody wants nuclear waste, maybe we shouldn't generate it.

What kind of a debate is this? They all agree.

How do you repair the economy without criticizing Obama?

Rick Perry wrote a letter to Congress which was as effective as the one I wrote in Mrs. Toomey's 1st grade class.

Cain was for TARP when the polls were for it and against TARP when the polls changed.

Who has the biggest flag pin?

"Government can't manage anything," especially if Ron Paul is running it.

Everybody has the right to have two arms.

Santorum is no John Kennedy.

"How can you trust him with power if he doesn't prey?" - Newt. I'll prey if Newt gets elected.

Ron Paul wants to eliminate the Department of President.

Cutting defense spending would be like cutting defense contractors contributions to my campaign.

We need to eliminate foreign aid and diplomacy.

Romney wants to turn Medicare over to the states which are almost bankrupt.

Michele wants to invoice the countries we invade.

Newt thinks selling arms for hostages was a mistake---out on a limb.

Santorum is at 1%. Does that mean he's rich?

Mitt Romney has created job openings.

And now the end is near.

Michele is baking a cake.

Maybe Charlie Rose should run for President.

If I'm elected President I will implement my 666 plan!

Mitt Romney wants to help the middle class, but he can't find it.

If there was no Government, we wouldn't have to listen to Michele Bachmann.

Santorum wants to repeal more regulations because the ones that were repealed that led to the current crisis were not enough.

Jon Huntsman has joke writers.

Rich Lowry from Lowry's Restaurants?

Romney spent his life in economy...is that like the Matrix?

I'm hungry for that pizza deal.

Finally...Reagan!

Rick Perry was reading Reagan's diary. That was supposed to be private.

Mitt Romney brought his own clip.

If a super committee is good, wouldn't a super-super committee be better?

Michele Bachmann is a voice in the wilderness and that's a good place for her.

John the Baptist was talking about Michele Bachmann.

Michele using more New Testament imagery.

Huntsman says it's going to be U.S. and China. New cold war!

On day One I will issue Two executive orders!

Can you name your 52 points? I have 999.

I'm offended by Romney's use of the word "Heck."

Mitt Romney will wave his magic wand and undue Health insurance reform.

28 kids is enough.

If elected, Cain will change parliamentary procedure.

Charlie Rose is apparently unable to ask a question unless he is sitting at a round table.

A young Alan Greenspan would make a good Fed Chairman.

I think Alan Greenspan was the only Fed Chairman Cain could name.

Banks are charging $5 debit card fees because they're crooks.

The Chinese couldn't compete with us if they'd lend us more money.

Perry has lots of blame, no solutions.

The Heckler had a better answer.

Shouldn't Michele be adopting her 24th foster child?

Michele should adopt Newt Gingrich.

Why are they all saying such mean things about the President?

Why is Rick Santorum still running?

Charlie Rose is a table person.
