Sunday night roundtable: The Fox News/GOP debate  —  9:35pm Eastern.  Wow.  Frank Luntz's focus group was just asked about Romney.  Only a few raised their hands to say they supported him before the debate.  Almost all raised their hands to say they were supporting him afterward.  Look:

Winners and Losers: Rank 'Em Up  —  1. Mitt: He was a stronger, more real version of Mitt tonight.  I truly enjoyed it, and I haven't thought he's won a debate since the very first Republican debate.  I think he probably did himself a lot of good in New Hampshire tonight, and the Luntz focus group shows it.
