Here’s the other winner:

Hours earlier, Twitter blew up about another candidate — Fiorina, the former Hewlett Packard CEO. If there was a candidate from the second-tier debate that could move into the top 10 in CNN’s prime-time debate next month, the consensus was that it was not Texas Gov. Rick Perry — it was Fiorina.

She cast herself to a receptive audience as a political outsider, one who wouldn’t be afraid to “throw a punch.” She delivered harsh critiques of Democratic front-runner and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. And she wasn’t afraid to throw punches at Trump, even tying him to the Clintons.

“I didn’t get a phone call from Bill Clinton before I jumped in the race,” she said, referencing a report of a phone call between the two just weeks before Trump’s entry into the presidential race. “Any of you get a phone call from Bill Clinton? I didn’t. Maybe it’s because I haven’t given money to the Foundation or donated to his wife’s Senate campaign.”

Business Insider — kind of a leftwing site, yes?

Kasich’s “some of my best friends are negroes” answer was emetic. Say goodnight Gracie.

[Lets Roll NOW]

The Republican base just swooned because Kasich went to a gay wedding. /s

[BeadCounter]

Kasich did fight in Ohio for Traditional Marriage, they appealed a ruling handed down from the court forcing it on Ohio. I don’t have much of a problem with what he said. It’s more about expanding medicaid that I question him on, he looks to be an up and comer and better than Bush at least. I think he’s the one that indeed, has a nice family.

"And guess what? I just went to a wedding of a friend of mine who happens to be gay,"

George Carlin used to do a routine about pretentious liberals who try to impress others by starting out a conversation with: "I have a friend.....who happens to be black..." I guess John Kasich thought he was impressing everybody with his patronizing gay wedding story.

[Lady Heron]

Seriously, who keeps pushing this guy? He did not score in any debate polls but article after article and saying what a great job he did. Guess he is the next rino to get pushed.

Kasich is so far under the radar that when he crashes no one will know where to look.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I’m not voting for any of The Cheap Labor Express candidates:

¡Yeb!
Rubberio
Grahamnesty
NJFatBoy
Huckster
Kasich
Pataki
Fiorina

Even if Hillary thanks me.....

[StonyBurk]

I will NOT vote for Trump/Bush/ or Kasich. I have a son caught in that “web of homosexual deceit .” I still love him—but I will NOT compromise my Christian morals to make him feel better. I’ve told him I will not recognize same sex “marriage” -period.
But I think both Rubio-and Carly Fiorino were the winners if there is such a thing in that first debate.

"Kasich came out on top," one veteran Republican strategist said.

John Kasich, the current Governor of the State of Ohio, who appeared positioned FAR RIGHT on the stage, whose campaign organizers had packed the seats with as many Kasich supporters as possible at the FNC/Facebook (lefties) debate in Cleveland Ohio?

Yeah. And Jeb Bush is a conservative?

(And Democrat Kelly Meagan wound up with a voice at the RedState "conservatives" shindig this weekend? How does THAT work!?)

Raves? No, quite the opposite response in this house.
