What a joke most of these candidates are. I'm glad I missed this. Trump was smart to miss this, too. Glad Cruz stayed in Washington and only appeared on video.

I watched from a pizza restaurant and missed some but I thought Jindal was pretty good, Cruz did well too but the rest was an absolute joke. Hearing Linday Graham talk mean and touch had me in laughter/.

Trumpless... I like the sound of it.

It was a Trumpless debate, not worthy of serious attention.

I watched 15 minutes of it, starting with Carson. After 5 minutes with Juan Bush I turned it off. Trump was wise to skip this farce. He is going to clobber these career parasites (Cruz excluded)

Cruz was very good. The fact that the NYT did not pan him. Is an indication of that.
Many were embarrassing. Perry seems to have been advised to
Frequently say “smart” and hope the voters would impart that
Quality to him. Jindal seemed uncomfortable to me, but I have not heard him speak often. Bush had some good points, but I don’t remember what they were. He has a very weak communication style. Pataki should have stayed home. Fiorina speaks well and makes good points, but she is not presidential material.

Mischievously promising to translate “Clinton-speak” for the audience, Mr. Graham explained, “When Bill says, ‘I didn’t have sex with that woman,’ he did.”

Linda, you mischievous minx!

ha ha watching this now and Mrs. Graham is trying to sound like Donald Trump. Funny to hear him try to talk tough. What a weasel.

This just proves a very simple point.

If Trump wasn’t Running, THIS is what the American People would be seeing and they would turn towards Hillary for inspiration. Of that I have no doubt.

Were any of those Candidates inspirational tonight? Did they do anything that would get somebody watching jump to their feet in agreement with their passion and vision?

I think Cruz is inspirational, but I am not the average Apolitical person. They have been propagandized to see Cruz as that mean Guy that shut down Uncle Sugar for a few days just to damage poor President Obama.

Truth means nothing. The Apolitical types don’t have the time and inclination to dig for facts when the Headlines and Liberal Narrative are being spoon fed to them 24/7.

The Media would yawn and Hillary would be a constant presence in the 24/7 News Cycle with every Report being more breathless in Praising her as being a Gift for America.

For all the Trump Butt Hurt going on around here, even his harshest Critics have to admit that he changed the entire tiresome Election Cycle and many people outside of us Political Animals are finally waking up. We all know some of those people.

Trump did that, not one of his Republican Competitors.

Hmm, just read everyone's posts.

I watched Carly Fiorina (good), Scott Walker (impressive, again) - and then Pataki came out. Um, I've got to go scoop the litter box....

Rubio looked and sounded great. Cruz did very well too. Bush looks out of place or something. Missed Walker. Like them or not these are the ones to watch.

The forum was like a beauty pageant where the contestants are trotted on stage one at a time and asked their opinions on the issues.

Graham was upset because there was no swimsuit competition.

Didn’t even know this took place.

I guess that’s how little it mattered.
