6:49 PM PT: Last segment of the last GOP debate coming up. Last chance for John King to ask Rick Santorum about his Satan warning.
6:50 PM PT: I've seen two ads for Rick Santorum here in Ohio during the debate. And one ad for Joyce Beatty, a congressional candidate, who pledges in the ad to fight back against the tea party.
6:51 PM PT: Dumb final question: John King asks the candidates to name the biggest misconception about their candidacies.
6:52 PM PT: Ron Paul says the biggest myth is that he can't win. Uh, he can't.
6:52 PM PT: Newt: I wish people knew how hard I worked to accomplish what I have accomplished.
6:53 PM PT: Mitt Romney basically refuses to answer the question, and gets some jeers from the audience, I think. John King, wuss, says "fair enough" when Romney declines to directly answer.
6:54 PM PT: Santorum seems to be saying the biggest misconception about him is that he can't beat Barack Obama. Uh, he can't.
6:55 PM PT:
Romney tells John King he doesn't have to answer his question. King, naturally, says "Fair enough." And there you are, folks.— @GregMitch via web
6:57 PM PT: Debate's over—I can't believe John King didn't ask about the Satan stuff, and I imagine Rick Santorum is happy about that. So what did you guys think? I'm not sure that either Santorum or Romney "won" but the GOP certainly looked bad.
6:59 PM PT: Let's say that Romney wins the nomination: one big impact of tonight is that he went on record saying Arizona's immigration law is a model for the nation. That's going to be a big problem for him in the general.
7:00 PM PT:
TONIGHT'S WINNER: No one. TONIGHT'S LOSER: Grimace from McDonaldland, who had to die to make Newt Gingrich's tie.— @HuffPostHill via TweetDeck
