Either these journalists did not watch the same debate that we watched, or they have an agenda.

The media has an agenda alright. It's to get a liberal elected to the WH.

If Trump wins the primary and loses the election it will be the best of all worlds for the media....Many many years of stories without having to put up with a President Trump

Senator Ted Cruz was the clear winner in last night's Republican debate ...You would not know this from most of the media coverage today

The media is just fawning all over Trump and denigrating Cruz. It is so sickening to watch. /s/

Cruz victory? Did you see Donald spank Ted for three full minutes about the new york thing where Ted was smiling like he just ate something bad and when he was reduced to clapping for Trump’s point?

I saw the debate and Trump clearly won. I thought Cruz came off as off balanced and ill prepared, his arrogance was on full display. I don’t care what the media says, I form my own opinions from what I observe, not from what someone tries to tell me I saw.

They may succeed in taking Cruz out, but their ultimate goal is to stop Trump He is the real threat to them. They want to wound Cruz and make him ineffective then they will start on Trump and then the Crap will fly.

I know. I can’t stress the NY exchange enough. It was murder onstage. Trump killed him and Ted shouldn’t make fun of American cities whine he’s visiting from Canada. Haha.

I’ve noticed that most people... including those who should know better....
See what they want to see, rather than what actually happened, in these debates.

I agree ... he was the winner and looked like the LEADER he is. You have to ignore the Trump haters, nothing he does will ever change their views. Sad, really.

Cruz was kicking ass from the very first moment, through his shredding of Trump over the birther issue.

And then it all dissolved away. His snarky blast of "New York values" clumsily set up Trump for the kill, and it left Cruz looking defeated and speechless. After that, Rubio landed a major attack on Cruz, and Ted meekly responded "at least half of what Marco said isn't true." Huh? Does that mean the other half was? After the Trump smackdown, Cruz seemed off his game the rest of the debate.

Don’t be surprised to see Rubio move into 2nd place after that debate. Rubio smacked Ted hard and kept going at him.

I think they want Cruz to beat Trump because then Cruz would be an easy mark.

You know what’s funny? The Dems are just sitting back and waiting for this to play out. They still have just two candidates in their bullpen.

Trump was handed the debate win, because Trump won the debate.

the media must have made up this non partisan GRAVIS poll result of 1,693 registered GOP voters who watched the debate.. 41% Trump.. 26% Cruz

http://www.oann.com/gopdebate/

that’s a blow out no matter where you come from

IMHO Cruz puts a lot of debate tv viewers off when he constantly tries to school his opponents with drawn out pre planned sarcastic quips that he tries to make the audience laugh at(which backfired on him at least twice in a big way Thursday night).. also his voice when trying to lecture the audience is like listening to fingernails on a chalkboard
