Watching Robot Rubio meltdown into a sputtering broken record was the most fantastic thing I’ve seen in ages.
This is the guy they want to take to the general? The GOPe’s little plan just got blown up tonight, and I can’t believe it was Krispy Kreme Christie who pulled the trigger.
Wish I could have watched but was at a Black Sabbath concert!!!
completely biased report
The Governors are irrelevant and should not have been in the debate. They are all past their sell-by dates.
Tired of debates, it’s Trump or Cruz. Looking forward to reading all of the FReeper reports. They are far more relevant.
Trump looked like an immature child.
No depth. Shallow.
No self-control.
Vindictive. Reactionary.
Not prepared.
Self-seeking. Narssistic.
Small.
Sit down and READ the transcript and take the reality TV out of it and get back with me.
I think you will have a change of HEART.......
Trump won before the debate even started by the ridiculous introduction moments. Carson didn’t hear his name being called: Cruz slithers by. Rubio walks by like a king. Bush “so stuck on myself” slithers by!!! Carson goes out and the whole time Trump waits his turn. Both Trump & Carson are true gentlemen. We saw absolute jerk politicians and then two classy men on open display.
The true test of a man’s character is what he does when no one is watching.

I thought Cruz had the best performance.
Trump was the alpha male on the stage. He made it close, but I thought he lost some people with the waterboarding response. It won’t play well to the moderates he needs to win over. It is interesting to see how an accomplished businessperson can stand up there and dwarf the best and brightest of the political class. They should bring out the billionaires supporting Cruz and Rubio and let them debate Trump directly.
Rubio got hit by a truck with NJ license plates. He’s not getting back up.
The Senators (Rubio, Cruz) are eloquent but lack leadership experience. The governors (Bush, Kasich, Christie) know how to lead but aren’t eloquent.
Ted Cruz was the ONLY one who looked presidential last night. His answers were full of enormous depth, knowledge, sensitivity and wisdom. Trump and Carson were hopelessly out of their depth, giving the kind of answers that a student who never cracked open a book would give on the final exam. The others engaged in pointless, petty food fights with each other that diminished them tremendously. Cruz was far and away the winner of the debate, despite the GOP establishment and FOX News’ relentless effort to marginalize and destroy him after his historic, unprecedented, blow-out win in Iowa. The establishment is terrified of Cruz because he is going to stop the gravy train of fleecing taxpayers to pave the streets of D.C. with gold and they know he is smart enough to do it.
Back in the 1980s, there was a Video Game called Dragon Quest. It was kind of cool because you played the game on the normal big pixel eight color screen, but depending on what happened in the game, you would get ten second video clips that flash up, usually of your grusome death.
The first time you saw this game, you loved it, because it got beyond the limitations of the flat screen game, and held the promise of a virtual reality live-action game. But after you saw it a couple of times, you grew to dislike it, because it only had about twenty video clips, and while the video clips were cool, they were all clips of things you really didn’t like, namely, your own death.
I feel the same way about Marco Rubio. When you first see him, you are kind of excited, because he gives these vaguely appropriate sounding answers all wrapped in smooth caramel goodness. But after a pretty short amount of time, you realize that there are only about twenty different clips, and you have seen them all before. Then you start to look at the individual clips, and you realize that you don’t really like them so much after all.
