Notes From D.R. | Random Thoughts on the Passing Scene

The winner of tonight’s YouTube debate: the Republican Party. No one candidate won this debate, because each of the major candidates had their weak points (and some of those weak points were significant)–but on the whole, the major contenders all came across as more committed to American security and economic freedom than their Democrat counterparts. (They also came across as smarter than their Democrat counterparts.) The questions obviously had an anti-GOP slant, but that comes with the territory.
