I think she did Trump a favor by asking ridiculous & biased questions now, rather than leaving it to the idiot commie libs to do.

It’s all out there now. Fox proved itself “unbiased” by attacking their own, and Trump weathered it with outstanding scores from fans.

M.Kelly was the designated troll for the evening. She also will survive.

Fox and other media see this as a chance to play GOTCHA ... they assume that a snarky GOTCHA GAME is productive - when in actuality it distorts viewpoints and disrupts the ‘debate’. Plus bringing a HEAVY Bias to the event is not really their option - IF they are professional. Other candidates were treated shabbily — Rand Paul - not a favorite of mine was shunted and given short times, Cruz - very limited time...

It is their news station BUT this is the NATION’S election and future... playing Gotcha Games with Snarky biased attitudes is totally out of place and a disservice to the public.

If Fox cannot conduct this type of venue with Objectivity — they should GET OUT OF IT!!!

Trump held up pretty well ... I will vote for Cruz but I want fair treatment for all - even idiot Bush... Fair but not favoritism - -fair and not biased... This is not asking too much for FOX to put aside the media ratings game — It is unpatriotic to do otherwise. Even for the Democrats if they can muster enough candidates for a debate.

The future of America should not be left to a media Circus.

The moderators' questions were mostly proper, not a lot of avoidance of issues and perhaps more to the point that comfortable to the candidates...

If some here have issues regarding Trump's evening they'd do well to consider the Donald's failure to close his answer to an absolutely expected question, his failure to address an absolutely expected question and his generally bully's response to most other questions or candidate positions.

He left himself an opening to limit his "no" response to supporting a candidate he didn't like but closing off a potential independent run (he started to go there but stopped short).
Just about ANY answer would have been better than attacking Ms. Kelly after the "on her knees" comment.
And, Most successful negotiator/debaters avoid words like "stupid" and the making of disagreement into a personal confrontation.

That said (and assuming he does not do a Perot); Trump has done a great service by forcing illegal immigration & government incompetence into the campaign. He simply has shown us that he is not the guy to carry them forward in elected office.

The only good questions were those sent in by common citizens.
Debates with media whore anchors got to go.

(Posted on another thread, but thought these links would be useful here also.)

In addition to it's blatant pro-RINO bias (clearly displayed recently), Fox News has steadily become increasingly pro-homosexual-perversion, and increasingly pro-same-sex-marriage.   (Here are some sample web links highlighting those homosexual trends on Fox News in recent times.)
