"And among conservatives, Cruz stood out. His answers were crisp, sharp and relevant. On immigration, he scored big points. He showed a degree of information and specificity that others didn’t have."

Christie? Nope. The dude is an idiot.

Hucakabee? Yes, he can answer questions well. Will he ever be president? Nope.

Trump And Cruz? Yes, they both did quite well, though I am going to give the nod to Trump, because the entire affair was purposely stacked against him from the start.

Who was the clear loser? Fox “News”.

I’ve always believed the last 2 standing in the end will be Ted and Trump, hence the meeting between the 2, weeks ago. Huckabee was very good though.

Christie sucked.
Rubio did the best and I don’t like him but I have to admit he was very good tonight.
Trump didn’t come across very good to me.
Cruz, walker, huckabee all did fine.

But -- and it's a big but.

That would be Christie.

Putting Christie in the winning slot is truly idiotic. The debate showed he needs to get out of the race.

The polling will have to be rigged to keep Christie and Juan Arbusto viable for the next round.

I see the Drudge Report poll has Trump decisively winning tonight with over 42%.

Trump won’t be able to raise money for a third party race; and he is not going to throw away much of his own money on a sure loser.

n the other hand, he might run simply for the purpose of taking enough votes away from the Republican nominee to let Hillary or some other Democrat win.

My wife laughed at all the crap they were talking about Trump offending women supposedly. Whatever. Talk about a manufacturered crap storm.

My winners:
Cruz
Carson
Trump

I thought I was going to hit the floor when Trump made his Rosie O’Donnell jab. Absolutely hysterical.

Something funny: I was watching the early JV debates with my Mother & she didn’t know any of them. When Linda Graham started speaking, she asked me “Is he gay?” LOL!

Dick Morris said: “His refusal to rule out a third party candidacy”.

Now, if people were not paying attention, I think there were 2 questions in there .. a 3rd party run, and also supporting whoever is the nominee.

When Hannity was interviewing some of the candidates - each one of them seemed to have a different answer - some said 3rd party, and others said support nominee.

There’s a fly in that ointment there somewhere.

——His refusal to rule out a third party candidacy-——

The root of this issue was not mentioned.
trump has made the RNC a deal they dare not refuse. If you kill me you are dead..... that is the message. Cooperate and be nice or die.

Trump brought a shotgun to a knife fight

Anyone else notice Newsmax cropped Cruz out of the picture on their site?
