QTips: GOP Debate and Bachmann's White Jacket

Last night's CNN GOP debate in Las Vegas was one of the most entertaining debates this season - in fact, entertaining is a far better descriptive than informative, because, aside from fences, illegals, and Obama, there weren't too many other words used last night.  Wayne Newton was an exciting edition to the debate, and Anderson Cooper's purple tie was very sharp and non-partisan.  Rick Perry and Mitt Romney gave us a wonderful dramatic interpretation of any Real Housewives Reunion (Mitt being NeNe, and Rick being Kim of course).  Herman Cain wasn't as outspoken as normal, but his soaring popularity kept him in the midst of the heated discussions.  Ron Paul impressed and scared us at the same time, and Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich both faded in and out, strategically being places on the far ends of the stage so that the cameras wouldn't have to pan pass them to get to the real contenders of the candidacy.
