Tonight's GOP Debate in New Hampshire will focus on the Economy. Despite economic issues being the #1 concern amongst voters, the current field of Republican Presidential candidates haven't said much about the economy. The candidates have spent most of their time slamming President Obama's policies while slamming each other on social issues. From Perry's immunization program in Texas, to Romney's heath care plans, to Bachmann's plan to put Don't Ask Don't Tell back in place, to Rick Santorum's insistence that the Defense of Marriage Act is essential for National Security - these issues are not exactly economic in nature.
Steve Peoples from the Associated Press wrote a great article outlining the GOP Presidential Candidates and their talking points thus far. As you will read, the economy hasn't been their number one issue.
