It’s not clear exactly what Romney’s talking about – but there’s an interesting idea somewhere in here. It’s the most intellectually interesting answer I’ve heard this evening: that there are four strategic visions in the world: Russia, China, Al Qaeda and the United States. I’m not sure I understand it, but it’s worth thinking about.
– CNN Senior Political Analyst Bill Schneider


Romney understands the world more than enough to lead us back to greatness!
Are you listening this? I'm blogging on 3 different sites, dealing with 2 kids yelling and listening to this and I manage to get what Romney said. It made sense. Way more sense than McCain's answer on what is a leader.
the man got brains.
Where is the time Cooper told Ron Paul he'd have after cutting his response to 15 seconds TWICE?!?
It would be helpful if both Romney and Paul could get to the point at times, this is one of the issues which plague them both.
Bad debate. Bad questions that have to do more with stirring arguments and controversy than addressing the issues. I mean come on "What makes Romney a better commander in chief than McCain". What's up with this?! To top it off, bad commentators. I'm turning it off.
Ron Paul is the only person to think about,,
Bill you should be fired... you are not a moderate reporter...
Do us a favor and quit
is McCain capable of being civil? If he can't be civil to his opponents how can we expect him to be civil with foreign leaders whose ideas he does not agree with? are we going to be at war with every nation on earth?
I hear two guys with no chance that make more sense then the two guys who can win. Whats wrong with american voters.
And the tv is off. Another viewer gone.
Particularly interesting if you ask yourself, what is the vision of the United States?
Russia is rising up the charts as an enemy to democracy, good to know Romney has Russia on his radar.
Romney is the Smartest guy up there. No question. I agree in that was an interesting take on the world and agree with it.
It is as intelectual as the "Axis of Evil". It is simplistic, prejudicial and dangerous.
Anyone else have "your comment is await moderation" above their comment? I'm suspicious my comments aren't being posted...
Dadeedaduh, Romney is the most intelligent candidate. Why would it surprise anyone that his answers are worth thinking about? If you worry about the economy (stupid) he is a better answer than even Bill was.
Totally agree and would be interesting to dissect. If true, pretty impressive.
That's obvious, he is talking about 4 ideologies Bill.
There's what's in China's interest, Russia's interest, Al Qaeda's interest and then What's in OUR best interest...
its very clear bill.
four strategies, four hegemons, four options.
simple.
romney is so smart.
If any of these Republicans win, yes. At war with the world.
Danielle – Good point.
I don't know if what you perceive to be incivility could not also be described as a lack of tact or basic treatment of people skills.
Doess Romney have someone answering the questions for him!Like Florida
This comment means "there are the bad buys, and there is us". Nothing new there.
I know and I'm really watching all debates from both parties. This debate is very interesting. I just really don't understand why Sen. McCain is getting these non'-straight talk answers and these's no follow up questions from qualifications.
