Debate Full of Analogies But Lacking In Points

Several candidates kicked the can by throwing it under the bus after shoving it down the bus driver's throats, but only two candidates scored points tonight.

Rick Santorum: 1 point for unions, 2 points for Medicare privatization, 3 points for rationing.

Tim Pawlenty: four points for Medicare and Medicaid privatization.

We await the poll winners.

Well. Got a little behind on this, but I have a full recap from the last week.

Sarah Palin earns five points for her ridiculous defense of her Paul Revere comments.

Tim Pawlenty earns 12 points for claiming that Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid should end with his "Google test" remark. He also earns two points for claiming that his gigantic tax cuts can increase government revenue by 5 percent annually, an achievement only ever attained with tax increases.

Rick Santorum earns three points for claiming he would seek to criminalize any and all abortions.
