Trump come out of the debate OK as long as he didn't screw up. He didn't, so I suppose that makes him the winner.
Everyone is talking about how well Fiorina did - makes me wonder if I was watching the same debate. To me, she came off as a rude, nasty, know-it-all. About as far from presidential material as you can get.
IMO, Carson was the loser. Nice guy. Nice stories. Not presidential.
Kasich screwed up when he said that he'd trust Iran on this latest nuclear deal. Idiot. Confirmed for me that he's a Dem, just running as a republican.
Bush screwed up on his 2nd amendment question when he talked about the need to have "hearings" to determine "competency" in order to bear arms. I'm amazed that conservatives haven't buried him with that statement, yet. Maybe because its not worth the time, since his candidacy is about over.
The rest? No one really distinguished themselves. Christie talked a good fight, but it was 100% BS. Just sounded nice. Cruz looked the most presidential, but didn't really stand out. "Shuffling the deck chairs" was a quote I read. Apt.
Hopefully, we'll see the race consolidate some.
