The Reagan Library Organization website said there would be tickets available.

And GOPE operative Hugh Hewitt who know doubt feed Tapper questions did a good job attacking Trump, and to get the candidates to fight each other instead of Dems

Touchdown.

I assumed the crowd weighted liberal because it was in California. But this explains it better. The places the applause went was absolutely disgusting. Cruz got no applause for his introduction. And pro-homosexual stuff got loud applause at some point I think. It was an awful RINO crowd.

Mahalo! Very worth checking out. Just having a radio show does not exempt one from scrutiny.

What was strange was that they started to applaud for Ted Cruz and then they stopped what they thought oops better not.

It also didn’t help that Tapper would cut in to Cruz’ applause, EVERY time.

Right from the horse's mouth the Reagan Library website.

The last line written in white.

...and by extension, anti-Cruz, since he hasn’t engaged in the bash Trump festival.

Sounds like Kevin McCarthy set this up on Bonehead’s orders.

Obvious sign is when they clapped for Jeb and Marco in their battle of who could pander better in Espanol.

Trump should get Cruz and Carson and invite them to their own event - hosted by Trump.

He could invite the others to attend if they wish and the media could only observe.

Trump could display some executive experience.

I am thankful Trump flew away last night, stretched out in his plane’s king size bed no doubt, turned the AC down and chilled out with a glass of oj.

He is fresh and doing his deal tonight in New Hampshire. He briefed the audience nicely about the debate, shared his usual message and got right to Q&A with the audience. It was very good. Their questions were not filtered through a hostile media. (Probably the reason the cables wouldn’t be there to cover it!)

The FIX is in full swing. Carly is getting her buzz worth and needs to go run in the Democrat party against Hillary. She could win over there, if she wants to butt in during the last half of a debate with Hillary, as the RNC/CNN allowed her last night. Wonder how cool CNN and the Democrats would pundit favorably on that! Not much!

How long will it be before our Presidential libraries and monuments will be as costly and symbolic as the Egyptian pyramids?

Our Presidents are not intended to be nobility...but we are allowing them to have dynasties and monuments to themselves that subvert the intent of the founding fathers. Could it be that the libraries and foundations serve as just another pipeline for donors to buy influence from a sitting POTUS?

I almost got one ticket for free. My Filipino bud has a family member who works on the Reagan site and he offered it but the filming in my work ran late in the afternoon and never got the pass, and it was handed to another guy. Sucks...

Yep, only GOP Insiders and big time donors got seats.

Maybe we should have two debates... one for everyday people - one for GOPe elites...

I was wondering about this because last night the crowd was very subdued. Usually the Trump followers are very lively and make their feelings known but last night they seemed very sedate.

Duncan Hunter Sr. was there, sitting behind the person the media kept saying after the debate was the “cute debate guy”.

If Trump fans are afraid of Duncan Hunter, then I have little respect for them.

So you are saying Duncan Hunter Sr. is a GOPe person? He sat on the second row behind the young fellow that got twitter abuze (#cutedebateguy).

Unfortunately, the venue was small. The Reagan does seat more, but I’m not sure about the set-up for the debate.

The Reagan Library is very nice, beautiful, really, and is situated on kind of a mountain top in Simi Valley, Ventura County, CA. The semi-long drive to the top is fun! One’s first time would deem the drive ‘long.’
There are banners of all the presidents, each flown from a lamp post along the drive. When you drive back down, Obummer is the last banner, thereby making it the first going up. . .

Once there, you can look out for miles and miles, in 2 (or 3?) directions.
There is a section of the Berlin Wall, placed in a good outdoor spot. And Reagan’s final resting place is in a beautiful setting, just past the Berlin Wall.

Thought many candidates must have arrived by helicopter.
I heard the tickets went for a mil apiece! Don’t know if it’s true.
