I think that’s a good sign that people are noticing Ted.

He was already leading in Google searches before this debate.

We have hope.

It may be faint hope, but it is hope.

The more I hear Trump talk the more I can’t stand him. We finally have a chance to elect a conservative for president for the first time since Reagan and people are fawning over Trump. I just don’t get it. Trump did good tonight pandering and talking. Especially turning Cruz’s NY answer. Ted didn’t say anything bad about New Yorkers. He said there aren’t many conservatives that come from Manhattan. Donald did a good job of spinning it to sound like Ted attacked all New Yorkers.

Overall I felt Cruz, Trump and Rubio did best tonight.

I think DT was surprised at being booed several times. Cruz was really strong strong starting the debate.

“Trump will win with Cruz as VP”

I’ve been pounding that drum since July! But Cruz might want to be a Supreme Court justice instead. If we can find out what Obama had on Roberts to blackmail him into validating Obamacare, Cruz might even get to be Chief Justice...

I don't think anybody won, but I think Rubio cut Cruz deeply.

A Cruz supporter would not be moved. But there are a whole bunch of people out there just starting to get interested...and are not committed to any candidate. I think Rubio likely won some of them over and damaged Cruz in their eyes.

Rubio shows himself adept at the quick shot, lumping so many things together as it's impossible to refute it all in 1.5mins.

Trump was furious when Cruz made the remark, “The constitution hasn’t changed, but poll numbers have.”

I thought Trump’s head would explode.

He knows darn well he’s ahead in the polls so that should not have rattled him so much, but he just can’t stand anyone gaining on him.

The most principled, the smartest, the best debater. The best ground game. Raised the most money.

Winner.

I’m a native New Yorker. No, Cruz didn’t insult anyone, and despite Dona;d’s histrionics, he knows it.

So what. New York will go Democrat as always does anyway.

Nope. Trump has a decent shot at New York. The election is going to end early Tuesday evening when NY turns red and the talking heads go crazy. It will be glorious!

Remember, this will be a carpetbagger vs. a native son.

In all fairness, though, I totally agreed with Ted on this.

We need to be sure Rubio doesn’t get the nomination.

I think Fox business had instructions to give Rubio free reign. It was despicable how they let Rubio rant for 5 minutes and didn’t give Cruz time to reply.

Ben Carson is a good man with a great life story, and that’s impressive.

That doesn’t make him a great presidential candidate. But I wouldn’t mind if he’s in the Cabinet.

Better yet, come back to Maryland and try to flip Barbie Mikulski’s open seat.

Trump wins every online after debate poll after poll.

Online polls are worthless. If they meant anything, President Ron Paul would be finishing up his second term about now.

The Trump people stuff those polls.

Luntz’s focus group almost unanimously had Cruz winning.

Instant online polls mean nothing.
