If Trump walked on water, all you would say is, “See, he can’t swim.”

Best point made all day.

Agreed that that is where she’ll get her votes.

Bush admirers appear to be Carly's source of Internet polling strength, if they can vote only once per poll.

GOPe pushes lovely Carly on us and stomped all over ugly Sarah. Are they idiots at GOPe? /rhetorical

That’s funny - particularly since I do work in the field of mental health!

Bookmarking your comment because I feel Carly really hurt herself with women last night. Not that she had a lot of women support to lose. We’ll see who was right when the post-debate polling data comes out.

I was not impressed with Rubio. One never knows what he really means. I recall his staunch stand against illegal aliens before election and his fight for years for amnesty for his beloved illegals after he won.

If the only thing Trump does enforce laws regarding illegal aliens, he has my support. He has already set back the left's march to take away our freedom of speech.

Spot on!

Let me just ditto that.

I was going to say almost the same word-for-word thing.

The Donald is the only true conservative and will pull in millions of low information voters. They saw him on TV in The Apprentice and his beauty pageants and will vote for him. If you want a Republican President in 2017 (inauguration day) Trump is the only man who can do this due his celebrity status thus his long term media penetration.

TRUMP is going to do what Obama did via his celebrity status

Trump certainly has the GOPe and the left in a panic. In evaluating the debate on Bill O'Reilly, Goldberg(?) announced that Fiorina and Rubio were the big winners, gave them A. The lowest grade any of the others received was a C except for Trump. He said Trump failed, should be sent to detention, and Cruz was rated too low. This shows how out of touch he is. Every poll I have seen has Trump winning, Rubio near the bottom.

CNN made the debate all about Trump, gave Cruz and some others too little time. CNN did not play fair, though it was better than the FOX debate.

Yes, I did what you suggested but link no workey.

Then I noticed another link above the poll, clicked it...and it worked!

Thanks for the reply...sometimes those 1s and 0s just don’t work as they’re designed.

You are the first person on this thread to mention the RINO-stacked audience. I had been looking for someone else to mention what I saw and heard last night. The audience reaction is something that TV people understand very well as a determining factor, and I feel they manipulated it, either by restricting Trump’s supporters somehow or using the audience mikes to make him sound less popular than the others.

Haven’t checked the live thread yet. Maybe others mentioned this.

It was mentioned once or twice, but it hugely affects how it comes off on TV. Gnarly got the heroine treatment from the get-go — remember, she’s from California also. She’s part of their club.

Personally, I feel like debates should happen without audiences. It’s the only way for a level playing field.

And what sissy candidate would that be since I haven’t mentioned any favorite candidate?

Both the first debate and last night’s started off with some female praising Carly. They are such propagandists. They know all the tricks. Fox did it too.

But this rigging of the audience reaction was real manipulation. Totally unfair. Imagine a comedy contest in which some contestants have a laugh track and others don’t. That’s what they did. That was why Hewitt didn’t have to bother being snarky and “gotcha” went out the window.

And what’s happened is everyone is talking about what the candidates’ said. They missed the magic act by CNN, which is what CNN was counting on: that everyone would be so intent on registering their precious opinion that they wouldn’t notice the forest.

The medium is the message.

You lie down with television people you end up directed and produced.

I don't actually need to know, because every candidate, except Trump, supports some form of mass legalization of illegal aliens.
