“I think she does a great job; I think she did a very good job moderating the debate,” he said. ”And I’m not gonna engage in the back and forth on personalities.” And with that, Cruz shamelessly changed the subject.

Big deal.

Anyone making an issue out of what Cruz said has another agenda.

The fact that he’s praising Kelly is bad enough.

...I think everyone including the media and debate commentators should treat everyone else with civility and respect.

There, fixed it...

In defense of Smegyn Kelly.. she likely was not the originator of any questions.

She’s just the reader of them.

On the other hand, to hell with her.

This is how these questions should be answered: don’t make unforced errors on petty issues that the MSM can attack you with later, and turn the discussion to what matters.

I have no use for Trump and I have no use for the gotcha games of trying to get statements about what other candidates have said. Screw that.

Cruz is a lot smarter than people think....

I think: he and trump have something planned, I don’t know what, but he won’t attack Trump and Trump won’t attack Cruz and neither one of them have said anything about Palin except Trump and it was really gentlemanly nice...

It’s best for Cruz to step away from all of this...

Go Trump/Cruz...

They got Cruz. Megyn Kelly is the issue. She's doing the dirty work of the puppet masters, ever more desperate to get Trump out of the race. How Cruz could say Kelly did a terrific job, when she turned the debate into something that looked like it was right out of IDIOCRACY is beyond me.

I don't know why a true conservative would go to the forum when Trump but not Jeb was dis-invited. And there were a lot of others far more conservative than is Jeb that weren't invited.

Cruz keeps becoming more establishment and Kasich, a gritty, smart campaigner, for all of his flaws, could be the one to say and do the smart things and move up.

Cruz “shamelessly” didn’t criticize Trump. These people are so pathetic.

BTW, anyone who thinks they aren’t prepping Cruz for the Trump treatment is delusional. Cruz will be far easier for FOX news to take down.

Trump is unique in that he’s a brand. He is a celebrity. His name is on buildings and hotels in NYC, Chicago, DC, etc. He does not need politics. He’s almost 70 years old. If he gets out, he lives life of a billionaire. The media/celebs forget about everything. And he’s back on The Apprentice.

Cruz has far less celebrity. He’s far less liked outside of conservative politics. Being only 43, he has far more to lose. Politics is his life.

All those going after other candidates for standing with Kelly need to shut up now.

Either that or disown Cruz as they have anyone else who said something about the kerfuffle.

Time to move on folks.

Cruz is being diplomatic. I think its fine. As long as he doesn’t fall for the trap of going after Trump as well, which Walker and Carly has done

Megyn asked the same kind of questions the nominee will be asked by the Democrat party and mainstream media.

I think it was FINE to ask these kinds of questions.

Cruz nailed it.

I get a kick out of Trump but I look forward to him getting out of the way.

What was it that Jesus Christ said ?
Love thy enemy,
Do good to those who spitefully use you, pray for those who persecute you, when you do ? You heap coals upon their heads.

A bit obnoxious how Cruz plays it safe, trying to be nice to everybody. You gotta take a stand. What Kelly did will only be done again, and it’ll be on Cruz if he begins to lead the pack.
