Five Republican presidential candidates gathered Thursday night for a final showdown before Super Tuesday.

The CNN debate, moderated by Wolf Blitzer, took place at the University of Houston two days after Nevada’s Republican caucuses.

-snip-

FOX 5 wants to know: Who do you think won the debate?

[caveat emptor]

Trump looked anything but presidential.

Yeah.

[sargon]

Trump looked anything but presidential.

None of the 3 frontrunners looked very Presidential tonight.

That's to be expected when the entire debate is staged in in a concerted effort to destroy the frontrunner.

Cruz and Rubio were, literally, ranting and raving. Their hysteria was pronounced.

After a while, the agenda became so transparent and exaggerated that I believe it will backfire severely on the second and third place candidates.

There's going to be a lot of crestfallen faces next Tuesday night, and they won't be the faces of Trump and his supporters...

[[Cruz should be on the SCOTUS, not in the White House.]]

He should be in the WH and THEN in the SC

In the 1980 Republican Primary Election Results (to compare to today)
Ronald Reagan had only won ONE of the first 4 Primaries,

and George Herbert Walker Bush had won THREE out of the first 4 Primaries.

Apples and Oranges.

Different states, and the second primary was Puerto Rico, FGS.

Furthermore, there’s NO Ronald Reagan running this time.

No one even close!

[screaming eagle2]

not Trump

[iontheball]

This is liberal CA.

Trump won’t win the Golden State in November, so who cares.

You are applying ‘conventional wisdom’ to a very unconventional candidate. Don’t be so confident Trump will lose. By the time the national election comes around, if Hillary is still in it, Trump will reduce her to mincemeat.

The tephlon don, seems no matter what or who throws sh## at him the throwers look bad and he looks better

[iontheball]

Internet polls like this are never accurate. Wait until Tuesday. Trump was bloodied pretty badly by both Rubio and Cruz. Should be interesting.
___________________________________
Television debates do not move the dial. They are nothing more than huge revenue generators for media hosts and television theater for viewers. They are forgotten, overtaken by subsequent events, and become history in a couple of days. What really counts is the personal contact on the road with voters and on that front Trump wins hands down. He has already done his primary election homework. His unique presentation skills and shrewd tactic of successfully doing huge stadium rallies is the key. In these rallies he and he alone is the focus of attention for 60+ minutes by thousands who participate in the event by cheers, clapping, and laughing at his antics. Supporters do not even recognize what is going on but they are bonding with the guy. When they leave, the supporters feel inspired, they feel good about themselves and the country for a change. They sense they have personally participated in something special and become a part of history. Unlike television theater they never forget this experience. I speak from experience. No other candidate and certainly not Hillary has the dynamic presence and speaking ability to do this. The primary race is over and all that remains is for a little more time to pass for the stuck in the mud, unbeliever crowd, to come around. Next, the general, and just watch what he does to Hillary.

Trump is not hiring illegals. His corporation files the documentation to give them temp worker visas. It is quite common place.

[flaglady47]

Excellent analysis on your part. Well done.

[lilypad]

I thought I had walked in on a Jerry Springer episode. The moderators love stirring the crap up knowing there’s no time for a decent answer. They’re just looking to see the candidates spout bumper sticker rhetoric for frnt page news. I’m over it.

[USCG SimTech]

I don’t remember there ever being this many primary debates. 10? Is this intentional to force opportunities for Trump to trip up?
