The Republican presidential candidates gathered for a debate in Iowa where they all admitted that they have no idea what it like to be financially struggling. This and four other reasons to be glad you didn't watch the ABC Iowa Republican debate.
1). The GOP Candidates Have No Idea How To Create Jobs – This debate got off to a blazing start by Diane Sawyer asking the candidates for a distinguishing idea for how to create jobs, a framework to create jobs and how many and how long it will take to create them. All of the Republican candidates suggested tax cuts and reducing the size of government. Romney claimed that he could create over 11 million jobs in his first term with tax cuts. You know the same way George W. Bush did. (The US lost 653,000 private sector jobs during Bush's two terms).
2). Newt Gingrich Plays The Teddy Kennedy Card On Mitt Romney - Do you want to know why Newt Gingrich is the new GOP frontrunner? Mitt Romney started with his I've spent my life in private sector spiel, and Gingrich responded by saying, “Let's be honest, the only reason you aren't a career politician is that you lost to Ted Kennedy in 1994.â€
