Rick Perry and Sarah Palin have not yet taken part in the debate
The battle for the Republican presidential nomination exploded into life last night as the eight confirmed contenders united in launching scathing attacks on Barack Obama in a fiery TV debate. Michelle Bachmann told the President he was 'history' and will be a one-term leader, as contenders laid into him for his Obamacare health reforms and handling of the debt crisis and plunging economy. But with Rick Perry no doubt watching and ready to announce his entry into the race at the weekend, the eight candidates exchanged blows over federal spending, foreign policy and gay marriage.

The smiles before the storm: U.S. Republican presidential candidates (from left to right), Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann and Tim Pawlenty, breezily chat before engaging in a lively debate
A Fox News poll suggested today Ron Paul had come out on top at 45 per cent - with Newt Gingrich (19 per cent) and Mitt Romney (12 per cent) behind. All other candidates were polling single figures. The two Minnesota hopefuls led the slugfest. Former Governor Tim Pawlenty, seeking to boost his flagging campaign, dismissed Mrs Bachmann's record of Congress accomplishments as 'nonexistent'. 'That's not going to be good enough for our candidate for president of the United States,' he said.

Herman Cain arrives for the debate
'The American people are going to expect more and demand more. And in fact we need somebody who can contrast with Barack Obama on results.' Bachmann fired back that Mr Pawlenty's actions as governor, including his support for legislation to curb emissions and the individual mandate in health care, 'sounds a lot like President Obama.' 'During my time in U.S Congress, I have fought all of these unconstitutional measures,' she said. Mr Pawlenty replied that Mrs Bachmann has a record of misquoting and making false statements.

Ron Paul arrives for the debate
Ron Paul, meanwhile, took the debate a different direction, saying he could understand why Iran wanted to build nuclear weapons and encouraged a policy of respect towards the country. The libertarian said the U.S. should learn to 'mind our own business' and stay out of the internal affairs of other governments, such as Iraq, Afghanistan and Cuba. 'It’s trillions of dollars we are spending on these wars,' he said, earning applause from the audience.
FOX news poll puts Paul on top
Ron Paul - 44.9 per cent
Newt Gingrich - 18.5 per cent
Mitt Romney - 12.2 per cent
Michele Bachmann - 9.5 per cent
Herman Cain - 8.8 per cent
Rick Santorum - 3.0 per cent
Tim Pawlenty - 1.8 per cent
Jon Huntsman - 1.3 per cent
I can honestly say that regardless of views or not, the guy you want is Ron Paul in 2012. If you look at his voting record (and even rivals will agree here) you'll find that he never votes against the Consitution with added bonuses that he's never voted to raise spending or taxes, he's never voted for unconsitutional wars and the guy has always had principle and not allowed himself to be bullied even when people laughed at him a few years back calling him crazy etc.
If one of the others (Mitt Romney for example) wins, I just think whats the point. Afterall, what has Obama done thats different to George W. Bush? they all stand for more military adventures, more military spending, more social spending and its left the U.S. bankrupt with debts of £14tn+. The United States at the moment stands at a crossroads and I hope for their sake and ours that it chooses the right path. I'll put the video up if anyones interested anyway with Ron Pauls' parts (the rest are more or less the same with tittle tattle, but you can find that on youtube if you want to watch - they're always very dramatic and funny to watch even if you don't agree with whats being said! :P);

Thoughts on the 2012 race anyway? Obama or Clinton for 2012? Paul or Romney for 2012?
