Candidates go all-in for Las Vegas GOP debate

Candidates go all-in for Las Vegas GOP debate

Tuesday night was fight night in Las Vegas. Seven Republican presidential candidates clashed sharply over issues such as illegal immigration, taxes and health care at a presidential debate in Nevada sponsored by CNN and the Western Republican Leadership Conference. But it was the three Republican frontrunners -- former Godfather's Pizza executive Herman Cain, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and Texas Gov Rick Perry -- who came under frequent attack.

Senh: It seems like whenever one of the candidates are doing well at the polls, it's feasting time at the debates for the other candidates. Mitt Romney does seem like someone who would switch positions at the drop of a dime, especially in regards to health care and illegal immigration.
