Cruz rises to top as Rubio and Trump wallow in mud at GOP debate
Fox News ^ | March 4, 2016 | Todd Starnes

Donald Trump assured the nation last night that his manhood was sufficient for the White House.

"Look at those hands -- are they small hands?" he told the audience at Fox News Channel Republican Presidential Debate. "And he referred to my hands -- if they're small, something else must be small. I guarantee there's no problem. I guarantee it."

You know -- as awkward as that moment was for families across the fruited plain -- just be glad nobody whipped out a measuring stick.

Thursday night's debate featured uncivil behavior from the Republicans -- sophomoric and crass -- bordering on obscene.

Sen. Marco Rubio behaved like a petulant child. Donald Trump flipped and flopped so many times that he flopped back to the positions he originally flipped on.

The only person on that stage who looked and sounded presidential and has a shot at getting elected -- was Sen. Ted Cruz.

I guess you could call it “bias” but not because I like both Cruz and Trump. Kasich annoys the HECK out of me. The only difference between Kasich and Rubio is that Rubio’s rehearsed speech is only 25 seconds long, Kasich’s goes well beyond the bell everytime and seems more like 25 minutes. Sometimes I think Kasich’s been intentionally staying at the bottom so that he can always go first when it’s time for closing statements and doesn’t have to worry about running out of time. So, yes, when it comes to Kasich... with me there is a bias.

$hit rises to the top of the commode too, it only took four years for both Rubio and Cruz to become part of the Establishment. They have done nothing for us. Time to give someone else a chance.

Well then, your comment is REALLY floating on the top because Cruz has NEVER been part of the establishment.

IMO it was fine for Cruz to criticize Trump but he went overboard with it. He needed to focus more on the corrupt ‘Washington cartel’ as he puts it so well. Trump has proven to be the teflon Don so why go there on the attack. If Ted would have stuck to the major issues he would have come across far better than he did.

I forgot about the mute button. I will be sure to keep it handy next debate. He seems like a very nice guy. Not someone I’d vote for. I do understand why some think he won the debate.

That’s when Ted is at his best. And also when he talks about his own policies. If he had done that all along, Rubio may not be in it today.

Same CNN poll: Trump gets clobbered by Hilary Clinton. Meanwhile Ted Cruz clobbered Hilary Clinton in head to heads.
