You can’t say Jindal wasn’t impressive...he was on his game tonight.
[It was a dumb question. why?]
Filler question.
I respect your opinion-—but if Cruz steps it up any more, think he’ll be storming the WH at dawn.
Walker did great, but Cruz’s debating skills are stunning.
Ditto that - she's very, very impressive!
Jindal left his house the moment he heard of the shooting and arrived in the scene soon after..
he was at the first presser..
where was Obama ..for Louisiana or for the people of Chattanooga ???
I agree with you. I really like how Carly handled her answers. Cruz and Rubio showed a good command of the issues. I like Walker but he wasn’t great tonight. Can’t picture him as POTUS. I like Jindal and Ben Carson. They seem to be very lovely people. It’s a good field!!
No time for “fillers.” I found it “boxers or briefs” kinda inquiry.
...”Jindal IS a leader”...
Pretty obvious all the times I’ve seen him....would like to see him in Washington.
Carly surprised me tonight...I generally didn’t get into her much at all.....she sure makes Hillary look like an old wind bag.
That’s a simple answer.
None.
George Washington should be on the one dollar bill.
[I found it “boxers or briefs” kinda inquiry.]
Like I said, it was a stupid question.
...”I like Walker but he wasn’t great tonight. Can’t picture him as POTUS”...
I can’t either though He was ok ....He should have made a stronger presentation.
Carly and Jindal impressed me with their answers and their presentation...though Jindal just seems very comfortable with himself no doubt he’s where he is currently because he is a natural leader. One of those that has the “it”.
Honestly it was hard to see it tonight and not because of candidates but because of the way it was run. I am actually excited about Thursday. I will watch Cruz carefully. I am one of the few here that don’t trust Cruz at all. He is swarmy to me. I think he pretends to be conservative but is really a liberal because he has not passed a single conservative bill or even convince his Senators to pass one. Governor Walker is all conservative in his passing bills. The guy can do no wrong in my book......oh he will say something that is questionable but I could care less. I am not one to care what they say but what they do....that is why I don’t like Cruz as much because he will talk all night but not accomplish anything. I am for “doers” not talkers. We’ve had enough of platitudes the last 7 years. Cruz and Obama are too much alike in their experience in my opinion. Bottom Line, can’t wait for Thursday.
Yes, I noted that...Louisiana might want to hold onto Jindal...he is that good.
Trump was wise to sit this one out and we’ll see if he took good notes when he gets up there on Thursday. Trump should reference Carly and Cruz often.
Walker just on with Megyn. His lipstick was brighter than hers, just not as shiny.
I’d say Walker, Christi and Bush failed...The rest did pretty good...
Of course they made sure Bush had the last say...
I watched the program and just got to the computer.
Overall, nothing big, no surprises.
Cruz was awesome like normal, but most of the candidate answers were fine.
I have one question though. How long before the internet meme goes around where they showed the shot of Carly resting her head on Krispy Kreme’s shoulder listening to one of the candidates talk?
....”Probably because it was so damn stupid”....
He’s going to make certain he doesn’t get the Presidency that he doesn’t want!
Right. Jindal is just energy packed. I can see he has a superior brain. I don’t know him on all the issues but he’s so comfortable with what he says off the top, he doesn’t over think or sound canned like I see Perry and Bush doing.
Nor can I. I think the introduction of Trump will increase viewers experientiallly. I think The Donald does the heavy lifting—and the conservatives (not the RINOS like Crispie, Yeb and Linda) then can swoop in.
Carson, Fiorina and Jindal broke out tonight. Those expected to do well (Walker, Cruz, Paul, and Rubio) did well. I really hope that Santorum gets a Supreme Court appt. He could do so much to support Scalia & Thomas.
Looking forward to Thursday night and FReeping again!
