I think Carly deserves to play with the big boys.

Fiorina is a Big Government Statist! -- Jim Robinson (5/25/2010, 5:21:20 PM)

She’s [Fiorina] an abortionist. I’m dismayed that Sarah lowered herself to endorse her. -- Jim Robinson (5/14/2010, 5:21:20 PM)

Trump is right-enough on most issues but, it must be said, he’s a lying a$$hole. He’s been essentially a corporatist democrat his whole life and he hasn’t demonstrated the temper control a decent president needs. There’s no bankruptcy court to bail you out when you screw up in the Oval office.

AMERICA'S OBSSESION W/ DONALD TRUMP (online dominarion)

Pre-debate Trump not only dominates Republican candidates in the polls, he's dominating them online, too. Trump was by far the most Googled Republican candidate in the United States during June and July, according to Google Trends data. The only state he didn't lead was Wisconsin, the home state of rival Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. (By Colin Daileda--mashable.com--8/5/15)

You summed the debate up nicely. Fox proving once again that they have no intention of being fair to Trump and Cruz. The first question they asked him was meant to ruffle Trump for the whole debate. Fox SUCKS!

“They were also rude to Cruz and Walker.”

That’s a big part of the story few seem to mention. These Hit Squad idiots from Faux Snooze didn’t seem to treat anyone with the respect they deserve. The candidates were their guests and they were treated badly. The “Children’s Table” debate at 5:00 pm had Bill Hemmer and Martha MacCallum treating the candidates much better.

Well Trump does look like an obsession people are massing to. No matter what any call the Don he’s generating excitement and interest in the election as none other are doing. But his performance needs work IMO....he has to up his game.

....”Trump's been essentially a corporatist democrat his whole life and he hasn’t demonstrated the temper control a decent president needs. There’s no bankruptcy court to bail you out when you screw up in the Oval office”.....

Perhaps...but the oval office ALWAYS protects the President regardless of how they screw up.....but I agree his temperament needs tweaking...

Trump is the only candidate running who is not in the pockets of rich donors. The other 16 candidates must obey their sugar daddy’s. It does not matter how conservative or liberal they are. Every action those 16 will take will be what their sugar daddy’s want, not in the interest of the middle class.

What it boils down to is all those “conservatives” we elected in 2014, what have they done to help the middle class? But the top 1% is doing great!

Carly ‘is’ establishment...and ‘a mixed bag’ in her positions at best, no matter how well she's memorized and practiced her lines and delivered the...

On conservatism she rates "red light" at best.....

In 2008 Fiorina stated she “respected women who supported reproductive rights.”.... framing the abortion debate as one of reproductive rights rather than the life of an unborn child....... (Glamour)

In 2004, Fiorina was described by Republican insiders with knowledge of her beliefs as pro-choice .......(Mercury News)

Under Carly's leadership at HP, the company came under fire for 'violating sanctions on Iran by skirting export restrictions by using a third party wholesaler......... Additionally, an HP pleaded guilty to 'bribing of Russian officials' to receive government contracts under Fiorina’s tenure......(USA Today)(Business Insider)

Fiorina has endorsed funding of embryonic stem cell research...... (RedState)

Fiorina does not oppose the use of federal funding to support research using adult stem cells or embryos....... (Los Angeles Times)

In 2015, Fiorina said she would NOT support a federal constitutional amendment defining marriage between one man and one woman..... “My view is irrelevant because the Supreme Court is going to decide that.”....... (The Wall Street Journal)

Fiorina supported the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell...... (Los Angeles Times)

Fiorina said that she would likely have voted to confirm the liberal appointment of Sonia Sotomayor’s to the Supreme Court..... (The Wall Street Journal)

Fiorina opposes using abortion as a litmus test for Supreme Court justices. "I do not believe where a potential judicial nominee stands on that issue is a qualifier or an unqualifier."....... (SF Gate)

What they fear most is the truth. trump and Cruz, each in his own way, tells the truth.

Cruz, of course, is a much deeper thinker than Trump, and, of course, the truly consistent conservative. But at this point in our history Trump has a role to play in saving the American Republic.

What is going for Carly is that she is better than Hillary.
But that is not saying much!

Go Trump/Cruz...
