When are they going to figure out that Luntz's focus group sessions are cotton candy? They aren't reality or representative to how people react to a debate sitting at home alone or with their family. The peer pressure dynamic, the host dynamic, the importance of the whole thing. It is not even close to what goes though people's minds.
I'm pretty sure everyone saw Trump compose himself for the remainder of the debate after Rubio's carpet bombing. I actually liked that he had "fun" with it instead of eing offended I agree with Trump though, that Rubio came across as a wise guy joker, a setup guy.
I thought Trump did pretty well. He’s the big board leader so its going to take more than a few jabs from Rubio and Cruz to knock him off. Trump is going to win big on Tuesday and every single one of these talking heads knows it.
You could tell Trump really pushed both the Cubans’ buttons with “meltdown” (Rubiobot) and “liar” (Cruznocchio).
And he timed it so that, even though they were both almost jumping up and down, he knew Kasich was trembling with anticipation because it was his turn and would not be denied!
