Fiorina up, Carson down, Trump still way above everyone else and gaining. I call that a win on all counts for Trump.

I grant that the Rube looked eloquent. However, given how he screwed all of us who supported him when he came out for amnesty, without admitting he was doing so, I’ll believe him once there’s a very cold day in a very hot place.

Show me a man who hasn’t had failures in life and I’ll show you a man who really hasn’t tried all that hard. I’m not going to vote for Trump, but 4 bankruptcies among the numerous businesses he has owned and run is nothing.

I think the next debate should only include the top 6

Rubio doesn’t even want to be a “conservative” any more.

Trump and Carly weren’t the important part of that debate. The was a pre-planned media creation. It will not have any lasting effect.

Jeb’s failure to launch was the important part.

Primary voting is still months away. The situation is very fluid.

It was scripted. Fiorina has writers that know how to serve up red meat for conservatives.

People can say anything. Let’s repeat that for emphasis:

PEOPLE CAN SAY ***ANYTHING***.

It’s not what is ‘said’ that is important.

It’s what is ‘done’ that is important.

Yes, people can say anything (cough, Trump, cough, cough, trump)

Trump is solid and is a great American. There is no doubt about that.

The proof is here:

**************************************

NOW that last link shows you who the real Trump is and what he stands for. It doesn’t matter so much what he says as what he does.

WHEREAS, Fiorina will SAY tasty things about PP that cause some conservatives to salivate but WHAT she has done would leave them cringing.

BEWARE People of WHAT is SAID versus WHAT is DONE.

If you like Fiorina because of WHAT SHE SAYS, then you are a FOOL.

ANYONE CAN SAY ***ANYTHING***.

More important are:

PAST PERFORMANCE
TRACK RECORD
UNSELFISH ACTS

Don’t fall for the liar’s script of tasty words and lures of thought!

Here are just a few, very few of the ‘quiet’, ‘unselfish’, ‘kind’ and ‘’respectful ACTS of Donald Trump:

I now know why Karl Rove was so pale this morning on FAUX!!! He had thrown up when he saw this poll!!His Carly Rino plan had failed like his $450,000,000 that he blew of other peoples money of that sorry Romney in the last election. He needs to form a company the Dick Morris (what ever happened to him) and go toe suck.

The GOP-E reminds me of those old time kids shooting galleries with the moving line of duck targets - as one goes down - Jeb, Carlson - another - Carly - takes its place.

Over the last few months the GOP-E has been running around like a duck ( :-) ) with its head cut off trying to shoot down Trump. Rather than attack the Democrats, they attack one of their own - someone they can't control.

So, now that tip-toe Bush is fading, as is Carlson, the next duck up is Carly. She will fade also as Boxer's old campaign ads about her ruining Hewlett-Packard are rerun.

It's gonna be an interesting few months as they still have about 10 ducks to put up.

I must have missed it when the media asked Hillary to respond to Carly’s DARE and respnd to the charges that Hillary is in favor of harvesting baby parts.....or are the media too busy feigning outrage at some Obama is a muslim comment by somewone who dared think he had free speech rights?

I realize that Rubio is a long way from being trusted to stop the invasion of the US. I do believe he loves the US, and his views might be more firm with what's happened over the past few years.

My comment wasn't about supporting him. It's about how the debate I was watching would explain those poll numbers. To the undecided establishment voter, I'd think Rubio came across better than the others. So I suspect it's those votes he got.

I'm for Trump. Has any one else in the past 20 years ago gotten the whole nation to talk about how we've lost control of our destinies?

Much different than Rasmussen’s post-debate poll...

The POINT of the Morning Consult Poll shows that 36% will VOTE for Trump. The who won/loss debate is NOT the issue. Rasmussen is just another Zogby!

She won because she gave a great answer on the abortion/pro-life issue and that’s a good reason to win. Every candidate should show that kind of passion against the nation’s ongoing, unabated slaughter of the unborn.

Fiorina wrecked the only 2 companies she ever ran.


She only ran one company, she was VP of Sales at Lucent. That’s hardly running the company.

National polls just don’t mean anything for the primary. Everything will be upset based on the results of the first 4 states in February. IA, NH, SC and NV. It’s only worth looking at national polls in February leading up to Super Tuesday.
