Fox News GOP Debate – 9/22

by Shane Holden – September 23, 2011

As usual, I tuned into the debate last night. I think I laughed more during the debate than on the premier of the new season of Two and a Half Men. Primarily because of the media bias of giving Perry and Romney the most talk time is working against them in the way that they wish it wouldn’t. Unlike the other candidates, who usually stick to informing the people their stances on issues, Perry and Romney used their time to bash one another. I really don’t know which one came out of it it worse shape than entering between the two. And although he’s not my pick, it was nice to see that Fox News decided to let Gary Johnson participate. The fact that he was left out of the last debate is just another attempt of the media choosing our candidate for us. At one point Fox thought they had Ron Paul on the question regarding the border fences, but Paul came out swinging and knocked their attempt to discredit him out of the park.

Total Talk Time
Romney 12:09, Perry 11:10, Huntsman 07:41, Santorum 07:06, Cain 06:23, Bachmann 06:13, Gingrich 05:44, Ron Paul 04:33, Johnson 04:10

% of Total Talk Time
Romney 18.65%, Perry 17.14%, Huntsman 11.79%, Santorum 10.90%, Cain 9.80%, Bachmann 9.54%, Gingrich 8.80%, Ron Paul 6.98%, Johnson 6.40%
