Actually, in terms of time, it was Megyn Kelly who received the most time. It’s been documented. Trump was second. If you think a moderator should hog most of the time, this is the “debate” for you.

And she was vile to others as well. Ted Cruz, in particular and Kasich with her snarkiness about St. Peter.

On TV, Nixon came off the loser because of his looks, compared to Kennedy.

I read a few years ago that polls of people who watched the debate on TV also thought Nixon won. I'm thinking that perhaps over the mists of time, the (liberal) reporters' conviction about how Nixon came off on TV got paired erroneously with stories about the polling results.

It wouldn't be all that surprising if Nixon came off better, since he also got more votes in the election! (Ah, Chicagoland.)

Last night wasn’t a “debate”. The moderators turned it into a circus. Usually, I love this time of the election process. All the politics in play, the scheming, the campaigns strategy etc..I kept the debate on in the background but simply did other things. FOX blew it last night and exposed themselves as shills.
Maybe the next one will be better, last night could hardly be called a “debate”.

I thought the moderators were terrible last night. A lot of the questions were gotcha type questions and it wasn’t just Trump.

First rule of journalism 101. Do not make the headlines about yourself. Looks.like both FOX and Kelly have moved out ofnthe journalism facet and into entertainment.
Liberals have been proven correct FOXNEWS is not true journalism at this point

I think Fox is even more unpopular after last night.

This was an embarrassingly badly run debate. Particularly bad was the second debate. Every question was an attempt to embarrass the candidate, instead of simply eliciting his views on some issue. “Why should anyone vote for you after xyz?” “What would you say to Trump if you had him standing next to you on stage?”

The “moderators” should be embarrassed as should Fox itself.

The candidates themselves all did pretty well considering the crap that was being handed them.

“Has Mr. Trump been made much more popular because of last night?”

We’ll see.

It cannot be denied that FoxNews, the GOPe, and the Democrats have all revealed themselves as tentacles of the same Beast. If you browse the opinion sites you’ll find one subject of agreement:

We are all being played. And even citizens who benefit from the game are looking at the world collapsing around them and wondering if it is worth it.

Will they make peace with the Dragon’s representatives or will they look to a St. George.

Trump got more time than anyone. He gets more coverage than anyone.

Trump didn't 'get' more time; the Foxes spent more time pursuing him and trying to damage him. They failed.

Yet it was billed as a “debate”. But it was the most disgusting exhibit of MSM bias and corruption.

How is it possible to have a fair legitimate debate, when the very MSM Moderators are not legitimate or fair?

How is it possible to be fair and legitimate when the MSM Moderators are de facto biased participants?

Why would they not use neutral moderators to ask the questions?

She may need to produce some evidence. He and Rosy had great fun in their silly fight. It was good PR for both. That’s all it was
