    Do you really bveilee that you are important enough for people you’ve never met from a far away land to end their own lives in an attempt to kill you? Okay, no. And I'll bet if you had asked any low-profile victim of terrorism the question they would have answered likewise. I'll also admit to being too dim to understand how the question demystifies the problem. Could somebody walk me through it?

    Why doesn't the media challenge Newt and any other Republican candidate about "Free Speech" and the SuperPacs.
    They all have said that money is free speech. Why complain about the SuperPacs that they wanted to begin the whole process.

    And why doesn't CNN remind them all of their positions about money equaling speech. Newt doesn't get as much free speech as Romney now. It is still more than the American people get.

    Unlike John king, Wolf did not let Newt bully him and was prepared to stand his ground. More important, Wolf asked the question tactfully and did not open the debate with this question and not making it sound as though he was out to get Gingrich. It is fair to say that by allowing Gingrich to bully him, John King practically gave the undeserved victory to Gingrich in South Carolina, Wolf by contrast snatched the momentum from Gingrich and gave it back to Romney who is now almost certain to win Florida, Lesson in this: reporters need to know what and how to ask!

    Newt is DANGEROUS with his wide crazy ideas.He is so full of himself as Audrey says. I think if NEWT doesn't get his way with his crazy ideas he could do anything, Look his third marriage not many people have 3 marriages it appears that (if he doesn't get his way, he doesn't work things out. He's unstable and very dangerous, so much that he shouldn't be President .

    I think Newt was right and it was obvious Santorum agreed with him. CNN is going to take a serious hit in their access to information if the miracle of a Newt Gingrich in the White House ever happens. I couldn't figure why you didn't jump all over Romneys input.

    At least Wolf fired back and John King gave Newt a free pass. Newt is so full of his self!

    Talk and ask questions about what needs to be done to straighten up our country before it is to late.Paul is the only one who has common sense and really cares about the little people,and that includes all the idiots we have in our government now starting with city,county,state,and federal.They all need to be voted out and replaced now with one term politicans period.They get to cocky and crooked if they are in office any longer.VOTE, ALL INCUMBANTS MUST GO,NOW.
