I missed the debate. Looks like I’ll need to find it online somewhere.

You need to find it, CRUZ was masterful in this one. Yes, when Cruz let loose on the NBC issue, TRUMP was truly stunned and it showed on his face. It got so that Trump himself eagerly wanted to chang the subject. He was in over his head with Cruz's debating skills, and he knew it.

It is because of this skill, that I truly believe CRUZ won the debate. "Come into my web, said the spider to the fly", and Cruz knows how to use that masterfully.

This was the best election debate I have ever seen. The moderators did pretty good, except, as RummyChick points out, cutting Cruz off before he could respond to Rubio’s 10 point broadside. Do look it up and watch.

I thought Cruz had Trump in the corner reminding the people about what he said about gays in the army, partial birth abortion and how he as a New Yorker is sophisticated unlike people in Iowa, but strangely Trump got a very positive response from the audience for his 9/11 bit.
