And that answer she gave was very weird. Like you said, I understand trying to gain support from certain groups, but the way she went about it here was all wrong. The fact that she kept repeating "I will fight for you, mothers of America" and other phrases like it made it more awkward.

I swear that is intentional. Sarah Palin is not a candidate so Bachmann is being marketed as "kind of like Sarah Palin...but better than Sarah Palin."

Her answers were very weird. It really reminded me of Sarah Palin. Bachmann has a horrible team.

I did enjoy listening to Rick Santorum try to respond to Cooper telling him that only 1% of America (or Republicans?) thinks he could beat Obama, while 40% believes Romney can. When his defense started with something along the lines of, "Most Americans couldn't even name one of us (a Republican candidate) until recently," I knew it could only get better from there...

I too liked the back-and-forth. The entire debate was attention grabbing. I yelled "damn" a few times. LOL.

Haha same here! I think the audience wanted to say the same thing, but instead used laughter to get that thought across

Ha they sure did. I was amazed at how obvious it was that they were leaning toward Romney.
