Consensus: Carly Wins Early Republican Debate
Breitbart ^ | August 6, 2015 | by ADELLE NAZARIAN

Posted on 08/06/2015 4:03:06 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Carly Fiorina was the clear winner of the early Republican presidential debate–at least according to social media.

The former Hewlett Packard CEO joined six other contenders who failed to qualify for the evening’s main event, which is restricted to the top ten candidates in recent polls. However, her performance in the undercard event generated a great deal of online enthusiasm.

When the viewers hear talking points and canned sound bites instead of genuine answers, it hurts the candidates.

I think Fiorina is very articulate, can think on her feet and is a very real threat to the "top ten".

Some of the "top ten" will reduce their stature tonight and I expect Jindal and Fiorina to move up to fill the void.

Canned and automatic response. Time for a new argument against her if you’ve got one.

No apology necessary.

No matter who “won” there’s no doubt that Carly Fiorina was FANTASTIC. She would absolutely DESTROY Hillary in a debate.

Jindal was also very good.

Yeah, but she is also supported by Univison - who dropped Trump’s Miss Universe contest. She had her orders to take Trump down. She’s off my list.

I thought she did very well except for the question on Trump. Most will disagree with me - her statement on Trump was praised on Fox and apparently played repeatedly on CNN - but to me it sounded flip and fake, like something that had been written for her and she had memorized

Carly inherited a mess at HP during the dot com bubble burst.

Hard decisions to navigate through a challenging time.

Even Intel’s CEO applauded Carly and stated what she did laid the foundation of HP’s future success.

Sad to know so many Freepers simply regurgitate leftists talking points re: Carly’s success - not dissimilar to the false attacks on Palin.

Do you like the fact that she is owned by Univision? They are out to get Trump. Now, do you still support her?

I live in Louisiana. If Jindal won, that just means debates are useless as a basis for choosing a candidate for president.

Why is Fox putting these lefty media pukes on the air?

They look like they were raised in a terrarium.

Fiorina surprised me with her intellect. Several sigmas above Obama and Clinton and in the same area as Cruz but more personable. Not as conservative as myself or Cruz but she is a ballsy and very smart woman who will take on the beast and win in a war of words.

Sorry...I was boots on the IT ground and HP quality and service nosedived.

She practiced the ‘they’re picking on the woman’ routine long before Hillary.

Rick Perry says he'd rather have Carly Fiorina negotiating the Iranian deal that John Kerry. A nice compliment across the stage #GOPDebate
