CNN's ' Live' feed of the debate
(Excerpt) Read more at go.cnn.com ...
Bernie Goldberg got his girly panties in a wad.
He don’t like Trump wah. Says Fiorina would be in first place if she was given as much face time as Trump.
Actually much of her past would get exposed.
Bernie Goldberg on Fox now is talking garbage about all the TV coverage Trump has gotten. He conveniently, or cluelessly, overlooks the fact that a huge amount of the airtime Trump has gotten was intended to damage him, just as both debates were intended to damage him.
I thought the entire group represented the breadth of the Republican Party exceptionally well. Not a person up there who is not 2 sigmas above Obama and Hillary on the Bell curve of intelligence.
Ben Carson lost me in Afghanistan.
Rubio is smarter than I originally thought.
Fiorina could be the sharpest tack up there but if she’s not willing to deport I’m not willing to vote for her.
My guy Cruz was just OK tonight. Not forceful enough.
Trump was Trump. Still not a fan.
Not interested in Jeb, Christie, Kasich or Paul.
But Huck is damn good on his feet.
There was an agenda to silence Cruz again. Like another 40 minute gap between speaking and then when he offerred to jump in on denouncing climate change, Tapper wouldn’t let him interrupt, even though everyone else that interrupted tonight was pretty much allowed.
The debate seemed set up for Carly to win.
Trump didn’t do anything to knock himself down, although the debate was so long everyone had a chance at some point to be memorable.
Cruz’s SCOTUS remark and rebuttal of Bush on the Roberts issue was A+
Walker had some good jabs in the opening, then disappeared.
Rubio and Kasich forced themselves into interrupting to get more speech time.
Overall, a long debate, but I assume the MSM will declare Carly the winner and her Mic-Drop before the 1st commercial break as the moment of the night.
Congratulations!!!
He’s doing pretty good as it is. Crushing all.
I agree completely. I do not know if you have ever been in front of TV camera’s, but I was once in a studio. And those lights make you hot and sweaty. I admire these candidates, most of them in 60’s be able to stand there for 3 hours and have to think on their feet. It almost seems torture.
Would you turn down your pension? Do you know anybody who has?
Like your tagline...i would love that on billboards...
Great observation, I was thinking the same thing. GMTA! :-)
Trump had a disadvantage over the professional politicians. He is not privy to national security meetings that Congressional members have.He is not a stupid man, and would catch up quickly if he was the nominee, because at that point he would get security briefings.
Trump/Cruz gets my vote.
=======================================================
Give the pobrecito some credit .... he's just trying to be consistent with his campaign ads!
They didn’t drool, they didn’t fall down, they strung together intelligible sentences. Pretty much unremarkable stuff.
Those who were on point tonight were Cruz, Christie, and Carson.
Trump was so so, but not awful.
No doubt in my mind that Cruz was the top responder in another stupid format.
I suspect that hes somewhat put off by the inane matrix that were these debates...and may be responding to that ..
I agree, he’s young and inexperienced, shouldn’t be in the race, but he still did a good job. That doesn’t mean I’m going to run out and start supporting him... But he did show some spirit now and then and came up with a couple of good answers.
Unfortunately, she failed to call them “baby parts,” but rather used the cold medical term of “fetus.” The former calls to mind a human being, while the later reinforces the “it’s just a lump of tissue” argument so much advanced by the murderous left.
And, where was all her rage against the machine when these videos were first coming into the public sphere? Did you see even one campaign add where Ms. Fiorina condemned the savage butchery of Planned parenthood? Let’s see it. If not, then I would say this is just the same old Kabuki theater that the Left is so good at orchestrating.
