If anyone can find a winner or a loser in that debate, they are sitting home in their basement trying to make meaning out of the unmeaningful.
LOL
I like seeing what happens on Intrade before & after. Huckabee won, Romney lost. No one else seems to be suggesting an better unbiased source.

There were two winners last night, and for different reasons.
And, there were 7 losers. One of which was your guy. It’s an absolute shame that a guy like Hunter, who I very much respect and am proud of, can’t get with the program, and gather enough support to, at least, climb into the top tier.
It’s a three way contest, at this point, FRed, Rudy, and the liar Mitt. At least Rudy has the balls to admit he’s a RINO, FRed admits his mistakes and defends his principles, Mitt just clings to his fantasy of self perfection.
Republicans, Conservative Republicans especially, need to face reality and gather around those that can get the job done for our side.
