2012 Presidential Debate 8: Republican Hopefuls Make Their Case

Yesterday, most of the GOP Presidential contenders gathered again together for another debate over the various issues facing the country.  Of all of the debates, this was the most contentious debate by far.  Pundits are pointing out the argument over illegal immigration between Mitt Romney and Rick Perry, but that isn't all the barking that took place.  Most say that Romney did well and Perry hurt himself - which has been the story since Perry entered the race.  From what I've seen, Herman Cain did not hurt himself, but clearly the other candidates have chosen to back away from tax reform which is a bit disappointing.  It will be interesting to see what the polls shows following this debate.

Overall, not much changed here.  The front runners remain Mitt Romney and Herman Cain.  Rick Perry will probably continue to drop even though he has a lot of money in the bank.  Rick Santorum will not make it past Iowa and if Bachman looses Iowa she will be done.  If Herman Cain pulls off Iowa, then expect it to be a race between the business man and the moderate governor, Mitt Romney.

Below is the debate in four parts.
