Absolutely agree.
CRUZ won the debate.
Nope but my older brother is. So that’s how I know a little bit about it.
I don’t think she was as bad as Chrisp WallAss.
Exactly. Trump said the same things that he said all the weeks he rose in polls. Those aren’t Trump supports but plants for Jeb. I muted it off.
“Trump was disappointing.”
You mean by having to try to answer all, and I mean all, of the poison pill questions? I’m suprised he was still standing by the end. Guess it worked though, as it obviously worked on you. Sheeple.
It is over for The Donald.
According to Luntz’s after-group, who claimed to be pro-Trump before the debate, now all hate him.
Yeah, right.
[Luntz’s groups have always been suspect. Sometimes moreso than other times. Tonight was a bit too many supposedly changing their support.]
Meggggyn Kelly was annoying.
I would buy a used car from Huckabee and regret it later.
Carson did well.
Kaisch and the local crowd cheering for him was annoying as hell. F U and your mailman father, Medicaid boy.
Jeb is George with a “Mission Impossible” mask on.

Excuse me for butting in, but I'm curious, just what is a Christian supposed to sound like?
Several mentioned they were happy with my scoring on the first debate, so here I am again.
I’ll provide context afterwards.
Tied for first
Trump
Cruz
Rubio
Tied for second
Walker
Huckabee
Carson
Tied for third
Christie
Paul
Last Place
Bush
Kasich
These scores were based on nothing but their answers from tonight. Again this is my scoring based on content, and style.
I gave Trump a few gimmes, because he’s not a trained debate guy and the rest are. Maybe not Carson either but it didn’t show.
Bush, and Kasich kept interjecting liberal mantra into their answers.
If Cruz hadn’t gone over an hour without a question, he clearly would have won this debate hands down.
The biggest surprise of the night was Carson. He was sharp, tight, and funny.
FNC was trying to throw red meat into the ring, and tried to get match up debates, 1 on 1, and the only ones who bit were Christie, and Paul.
Every candidate was questioned about past “faux pas” and all handled well.
Over all a very even debate.
He should have told Megyn (did her mother really give her that name?) to put on a more professional looking dress and to wear some stockings; her bony, middle aged legs with no stockings are hideous. She is just an odd looking, middle aged woman with a lucrative gig.
what a bunch of morons , schills
Gotcha. :)
I thought Trump was fine. He gave the level of substance he was asked for. My point of weakness for him was on the obamacare question. But they are very pressed for time and he has never done a debate before. Winning the debate is not essential. Winning the primary is essential. You just have to do the best you can and not knock yourself out in the debates. He didn’t knock himself out.
Not sure what substantial question you actually heard Trump receive. The only one he really got to give details for was his response to Obamacare. Everything else was cheap personal attacks about women on their knees or why does he donate to Hillary (nevermind he donated to most of the people on stage).
Lol, it’s a Luntz fake attack group going after Trump. The Fox clown-show continues.
Don’t forget the other part of the equation here.
LOTS of people saw this outright attack on Trump tonight by the Establishment that are NOT Conservatives.
My top 5
Cruz
Walker
Firiona
Kasich
Huckabee
