So as CNN ginned up its debate format to boost its ad rates from $5,000 per spot to a dense $200,000 and more, the three hour descent into the successful male versus female, exercise in futility played out.
Here is how another female saw the stage show. Donald Trump began his campaign with a theme of “Competence,” rather than “Political Correctness” and that is what we saw. Trump ran the table. He was split-screened with the other speakers, thereby increasing his optics meter. We saw The Donald in front of Ronald Reagan’s Air Force 1. We saw him respond with equanimity when confronted with his “face” comment which we all knew, as did he, would be thrown up to him. (Did CNN turn up the Fiorina applause decibel here?)
Trump’s sang-froid was not matched and here’s why. Ms. Fiorina’s obviously prepared retort to the theme that women should be considered part of the whole population rather than a special class, belied her later comments that began to sound like the woe is me, poor female lament. Trump, however, responded the way highly successful, competent males always do. He didn’t take the bait; he didn’t bow in obeisance to the PC crowd; he took his hits and he stayed objective. He didn’t bring up his own personal pain and please, let’s give Ms. Fiorina and her husband all of the condolences they deserve in the death of their daughter from substance abuse and bulimia. However, Donald Trump’s stiff upper lip in the face of extreme stress exemplifies the Code of the Cowboy that founded our American character. And Dr. Ben Carson was where?

Trump ended the pre-gamed scripts by saying ‘You are beautiful’. At the end, it really is ‘who would vote for that face’ but not from the hand of Trump. Her level is somewhat less than Senator and Head of HP.
Yes the debate was all about the Carly’s Free arena show.
Kinda glad it happened because we’ve learned a lot more about her and I like her a whole lot less now. Silver lining...

FBN had the stock pickers admitting she is being pumped up by wall street anti-trump cronies. They do not believe she will ever win, they just want to stop trump who might hurt their gravy train.
Fiorina has a rolodex and some dirty laundry on crony insiders. She is a willing fall guy for cash.
