Vegas GOP Debate Live Tweet Event By WitStream

It hardly made sense to have a GOP debate in Vegas without Jon "Captain Excitement" Huntsman, but that was our reality and we had to accept it. Huntsman's boycott of the debate aside -- see video below for an explanation -- Tuesday's CNN Western Republican Debate was a real barn burner.

As usual, we teamed up with our friends at WitStream to bring you live, ongoing commentary from the funniest people on Twitter (also known as the funniest people in the whole universe). If you missed it, you can simply replay it below.

I could not help but notice all of those gray roots on Michele's close-ups. She should have done a quick touch-up before going on stage.

That picture is the most intelligent thing to come of that group.

That picture seems a little sexist.

these "comedians" and their "jokes" suck.

the debate audience showed up thinking they were going to see cirque du soleil but got a much better clown show instead

The people in the crowd are confused, they don't know whether to shake Bachmann's hand or salute her.

Nucular

That picture is flat out wrong. I want to see Obama, Pelosi, Reid in the same costumes.

Sorry, sweetie. The outfits are perfect. I am sure that Rupaul would not be pleased with Herman's drag though...he would fail Drag Race as much as he would Presidential race. One messy old queen!

Is being a moderate in GOTP speak like being a mudblood in the Harry Potter universe?

Space Cadet Bachmann is the belle of the ball in that fetching uniform.

Michelle was right, however, on calling out Kochcain's tax plan. Her ideas were a mess, though.

What have you done to one of our future presidents? May you find yourself eternally down wind from a herd of farting sheep. :(

These clowns should stick to the old adage "that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas", although for pure comedy entertainment it's solid gold.

Seriously...Herman Cain looks Fierce!!

He is just playing that AngryBlackManCard cause he knows he doesnt have a chance anymore

[whateverrr]

I mean he looks fierce in his showgirl costume! But, I disagree. I think Herman Cain has a shot...so far.

Yes, do we have to have that stereotype or is it that anyone from the GOP is angry, regardless of color? On that I guess the party has achieved color blindness...as long as you hate, they will appreciate!
