Did the first Republican debate effect who you are supporting?

Agreed! Right now, today, I don’t have a choice.

Has watching the debate has changed any of your positions of who you wish to see get the Republican nomination?
Nope, however FOX is now dead to me and a final straw in cutting the cable.
That was not a debate. That was an assassination. A debate is when a moderator asks everyone to respond to the same question. What is your position on common core? Everyone gets a minute to respond. Ten minutes and on to the next.
Thirty one minutes were spent on journalista glamour. We were not there to watch the GOPe and FOX blow-dries. We were there to watch the candidates.

No.
Only appalled by Fox's concerted suppression of Cruz.

Ted Cruz has far better credentials for taking on the Uniparty that Trump ever dreamt of. Trump has been both a beneficiary and enabler of the Uniparty for his entire career. I fail to understand why everyone seems to have checked their brains at the door.

What debate? I did not realize common core was retroactive. What I saw was a ‘reality show’ attempting to bloody one specific person. The others guests were stage props getting a behavior lesson on what to expect if they do not follow the political rules of alinsky.

Same here, except I know who I won’t vote for. Tijuana Bush for example.

I’ll vote for Cot Walter or Ted Cross, just as before but I’m fairly flexible if someone else gets the nomination but not Jeb.
To: Amagi
I thought their stiffing of Cruz was much worse than the biased questions thrown at Trump. But of course all the press is about Trump.

Rubio supports illegal immigration. He is establishment all the way. He’ll never get my vote. It’s Trump, Cruz or Carson for me.
To: MNDude
No, I have been for Cruz all along, Cruz’ performance in the debate only confirmed my support of him. But, I’ll have to say my opinion of Huckabee has been raised a few notches. Huck said some outstanding things. Kasich and Bush made me want to puke.
To: grey_whiskers
I’m so glad you made your comment. I started reading through the thread to see if anyone else noticed. Thank you.

Not really, I’ve wanted Cruz or Walker for a while now. I was disappointed Jindal didn’t have a break-out moment in the early debate.

No.
But it did make me MORE ANGRY AT THE LIBERAL MEDIA and AT THE "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" !
I might support Trump IF TED CRUZ does not WIN !

Nope - CRUZ is still my main man.
Walker seems to be a bit weaker and Trump a bit more "worthy" than before so 2nd/3rd places may swap soon.

Yeah, I was having fun with what Trump was doing to the GOPe and how he was bringing up immigration (despite still actually being for amnesty) up until then.
Defending the single-payer healthcare system (AKA Hillarycare) and not coming out with anything actually conservative frayed my patience with him—added to his having said a week or two before that the economy does better under Democrats, and only economically seeming to offer up protectionism and a weak dollar.
Then his continued nastiness about MK this week sealed the deal for me. The sooner he stops collecting Freeper-like backers that he may well try to peel off for a third-party run the better.
Also, Cruz has no chance in NH, but he’s got to pick up enough Trump supporters to come in second in IA and first in SC in order to have hope as the conservative alternative to the GOPe winner.
I’ve enjoyed the Trump tweaking of the GOPe and I would have liked him to play out as a genuinely conservative Republican winner—but that’s really not a possibility.
