The bias dripped from Luntz.

Fox NEVER mentions Cruz, he doesn’t exist to THE PANEL.

All the Washington people they had on thought Bush and Walker were great, everyone outside Washington thought Trump, Cruz, and Carson were great.

Kelly doesn’t like getting it thrown back at her, she brought up Newt last night for teaching her a lesson on judicial supremacy.

“Frankly, as an aerospace mechanical engineer obsessed with history and politics...”

Yes, like a magician supposedly doing card tricks shuffles the deck in private.

You believe Luntz polling groups got it. How is President Romney doing?

Cruz was absolutely in control when they DID bother to go to him. He looked and sounded extremely presidential.

So they made sure to freeze him out and concentrate on the three ring circus. It’s quite telling.

>> memo to Cruz, Paul, and Rubio: NEVER say “I sponsored legislation . . .” <<

Maybe the wisest advice today on all FR threads!

(But then, I think maybe there should be a constitutional amendment against allowing first-term Senators to run for POTUS, maybe even second-term Senators.)

As illustrated by the good thing he said about Cruz?

FYI ping, Luntz pointing this out puts to rest the idea that Fox won't give Cruz air time because they favor Jeb. Jeb wasn't even a footnote in Luntz focus group, Jeb simply was not all that great last night. Luntz didn't even try to highlight the Jebsters one good answer (heh, I forget what he said, just notice he did a blind squirrel with one of the questions)

And in the after-debate when Kelly was quizzing about how the candidates did, she mentioned everyone BUT Cruz.

I have a good news for you.

Ted Cruz knows about what people inside the Beltway (the Washington Cartel) are doing to him (freezing him out). He mentioned this in his book. He's been doing what President Reagan did, by bypassing the media and taking his messages to the people directly.

They gave lesser time to a lot of the candidates, not just Cruz. If they wanted to freeze him out, Luntz would not have praised him so much.

Yep.

None of this surprises him. He’s operating way ahead of them.

“too little too late” Not entirely his fault. He was ignored for an hour.

By far, Trump got the most minutes. Can’t help it when they start with the “raise your hand,” then demand he justify it. Not defending the time allotment, but no question they wanted “more Trump” (more cowbell?)

That was a great moment for the audience, putting Wallace in his place! It happened a few times where the gottcha moderators backfired on themselves because they are so out of touch with Americans.

Been watching Frank a long time, he’s no leftist tool. He may have turned into a GOPe tool or at least is in FNC’s pocket for Jeb.

Trump is playing the bad boy like a violin by playing up lots of folks frustration with most politics.

Yeah he’s hot, but the question that keeps haunting me is what happens when he tires of this game he’s playing?

On a more important practical question, with his un democratic ‘his way or the highway’ business style, will he take advantage of the bad precedent set by nobama of going around Congress?
