New Hampshire GOP Debate Shows Promise, and Flaws

The Republican presidential hopefuls, former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA), U.S. Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN), former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Newt Gingrich (R-GA), former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, U.S. Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX), former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and former Godfather's Pizza CEO Herman Cain all debated tonight in the first New Hampshire debate of the 2012 campaign at St. Anslems College in Manchester, New Hampshire June 13, 2011. All of the candidates sounded conservative, placed principles before party, and sounded presidential.

My feelings about the debate, and how the candidates performed, will be forthcoming either tomorrow night, or Wednesday.
