Republican debate round 1: Ron Paul 1, the rest: zeroes

Ron Paul, truly a powder keg of liberty.
Really knocked it out the park at the Republican debate tonight 
despite being restricted in attention & time, & facing an uphill assault of bias questions.
Not even a few subtly surreptitious attacks could slow Mr. Paul's pace.
His answers regarding Israel were fierce, less American intervention.
Even a heavy attack question regarding Paul's past stance on the legalization of prostitution & heroin
(not drugs as a whole did they ask, but heroin) couldn't button hook Ron.
He swiftly answered, people are going to do them regardless of American interference,
end drug prohibition and begin regulating these substances.
He did seem a bit nervous at times, but this is merely Pauls style from what I have learned.
He divulged many truths which the public can't possibly ignore, 
this in itself is a definite win in my book.
As for the other candidates:
Herman Cain played the god card and was mostly forgettable.
Pawlenty & Santorum were basically one in the same, truly couldn't tell one from the other.
Fox played blatant favoritism (as expected)
by allowing them dominant airtime (so much for fair & balanced).
Both candidates made sure to mention allegiance to Israel out the gate,
and both candidates played the conveniently timed Osama death to their advantage,
as well as saying "America" every other word.
Johnson was mostly ignored, at times given topics of unimportance for commentary.
When he did answer it seemed forced & weak, surely due to having bottled energy from censorship.
