Very Polite

It seemed likely that tonight's debate would be a gang tackle of Mitt Romney. Didn't happen. Perhaps Santorum and Gingrich were too afraid of driving up their own negatives, given that they've both had reputations in the past as brawlers.

Big loser? The MSM and the ridiculous focus on the social-issues preoccupations of the left. Kudos to Gingrich for calling out the media, as he has done effectively throughout th series of debates.

It will be interesting to see if the next debate, in the morning, features a little more rough and tumble.
