I just finished watching the Republican primary debate archived on CNN. John King was "uh", "ok" really annoying with his repeated kinda-sorta interruptions. Michele Bachmann was impressive, no other way to put it. Her handle on the few foreign policy questions was masterful and pretty surprising, considering she usually has been portrayed as a single issue, anti-ObamaCare crusader, doncha know? (Nothing wrong with that, of course.)
Romney was, as usual, solid and articulate. I think it will come down to these two. The others will only fade from here on out.
Here's Politico on Bachmann:
It was, quite simply, a different Michele Bachmann who emerged on stage at St. Anselm’s College in New Hampshire — a nuanced, focused and polished politician rather than the one-dimensional firebrand she’s been caricatured as in the past. If she is to make a serious run at the presidential nomination, Monday’s debate might be the turning point that gave the GOP establishment a reason to give her a second look.
