The question on abortion is a thorny one; do the candidates believe that if abortion is banned, the doctor or the mother should face criminal charges, and if so, what punishment?

Thompson gets applause when he says the focus ought to be on overturning Roe v. Wade.

Giuliani: A federal ban on abortion? I probably would not sign it. I would leave it to the states. The problem with Roe against Wade is that it took it away from the states.

Romney: I’d be delighted to sign that bill, but that’s not where we are… If we get to that consensus in this country, terrific.

Cooper: Would Jesus support the death penalty?

Huckabee: Jesus was too smart to ever run for office, Anderson.

Mrs. CampaignSpot is noticing that Huckabee’s a good speaker.
