Florida Republican Debate - Republican Race


BBC News: Reports on the heated clash between Governor Romney and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich when it comes to immigration, the former Speaker accused Romney of being anti immigration. This Debate folks was interesting, yes you had Gingrich and Romney going over old ground of immigration, Gingrich wanting people who have been the US illegally for years but have been productive in the community to be judged by their neighbours if they should stay, while Romney wants the law enforced and for workers to work legally in the US. It was old ground nothing new, what was interesting was the trench warfare of both candidates, while they were in the trenches it was up to Senator Santorum to take the fight to President Obama. Also this blog thinks that President Reagan was the greatest President of the later half the 20th Century, but to be honest this blog will postulate that he would not have much time for either Romney or Gingrich, Romney recalls President Ford, a moderate but a loser to Jimmy Carter in 1976, while Gingrich is the modern Barry Goldwater, a major loser to LBJ in 1964. Reagan would want a Conservative but with charisma, both Candidates have problems on that score.
