 Bachman: Palin 2.0
 
 Santorum: Seems smart and sincere.  Want to hear more, but I remember Sebby saying something about him that wasn't very positive.
 
 Huntsman: Don't know much about him.  Want to hear more. Seems like the only candidate I possibly could vote for.  Probably not electable.

 The only coherent person on the stage was Gingrich.  
The thing was an utter waste of time to watch, except for that one beautiful display where Gingrich beat the shit out of Chris Wallace.
ETA: Correction.  Romney was coherent, and sleazy as hell in his pre-packaged dodges.  Nice to see he didn't waste the last three years.  Apparently, he spent them in law school.  
Santorum's defense of a ban on abortions even in cases of rape was a new low.  Disturbing.  I now do not merely wish him to lose, but actually feel that, karmically, and for the betterment of the human race, some horrible accident should remove him from the planet entirely.
