Fourth GOP debate: What happened to Donald Trump?
Fox News.com ^ | November 11, 2015 | William Whalen

Tuesday's Fox Business debate in Milwaukee began with a brief mention that the 2016 Republican presidential field had gathered across the street from where Theodore Roosevelt took a bullet in the chest over a century ago.

About that shooting: despite the wound, TR continued with a scheduled speech at the Milwaukee Auditorium. One sentence into his remarks, TR told his audience, "I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot." He then unbuttoned his vest to reveal both a bloody shirt and a new political identity: "It takes more than that to kill a bull moose".

About the FBN debate: it ran 45 minutes longer than Roosevelt's speech; none of the eight candidates on the primetime stage ended up in intensive care. It's going to take more than such gatherings to kill the likes of Donald Trump, Ben Carson and Ted Cruz's insurgencies.

This marked the fourth of the GOP's debates and a break in the action until a Dec. 15 gathering in Las Vegas Nevada being the fourth stop on the GOP primary trail in 2016.

It’s funny how someone else manages to “win” every debate, yet Trump is the one on top and the “winner” either falls, or doesn’t move in the polls (see: Fiorina). Rubio and Cruz have supposedly “won” the last two. Neither has made a major move. Both moved up a little, but it’s hard to tell if that isn’t really due to the falling of Paul, Bush, Christie, and Fiorina and these two picking up some of their GOPe supporters.

Thanks for the memory---

Boobambas The Office Of The President-Elect had a podium and some
sort of phony seal on it.....a sign of even more ominous things to come.

First thing Donald must do is establish what no-good these Chicago
criminals were up to. All of Val/Jar's wire transfers must be obtained.

THE KINGPINS OF CHICAGO CRIMINAL POLITICS IN OUR
WH wasted no time
.....a stranglehold on the Census, AND the US Treasury, from day one.

The minute Obama/Valerie/Rahm/Axelrod/Geithner, and that Practiced bunch of Chicago criminals, landed in the WH they did two things that were apparently crucial to their evil plans

(a) they took control of the US Census;

(b) Obama placed his COS Rahm Emanuel in control of the US Dept of the Treasury (cabinet-level agency oversees IRS).

THE SMOKING GUN---WSJ REPORT--On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama's Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury---Rahm Emanuel's dual role was an unusual move.

When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings of the Treasury that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials. Reported by WSJ / 05/31/09

====================================

Remember---Rham Emanuel was Bill Clinton's top aide
AND a Goldman Sachs lobbyist AT THE SAME TIME.

The media does not understand that they, themselves, are directly to blame for any teflon found on Trump. Because they have been trying to lead the public to an opinion that is unsupported by unbiased evidence, no evidence can be introduced by them that can sway the public’s opinion.

I am in no way critiquing anyone’s performance in the debate - I did not watch it, and therefore have no opinion.

Instead, I am deliberately insulting the media for their wrong-headed championing of anyone who disagrees with the voters, on either side of the aisle. And the mediots decry they aren’t being listened to!

The problem is, we are listening, and also hearing. We just don’t believe their bull-schtick any more.

Biggest mistake Dubya ever made was taking that "above politics" stance (Rove again) when he refused to put a special prosecutor and FBI investigation on the Klintonx for Chinagate.

Trump or Cruz or whoever should delegate it, but make sure someone gets all over Obama like stink on ____. We deserve to see it all -- draft records, school records, and of course the original BC. Plus all the bribes, the incriminating correspondence, and everything on Benghazi and F&F.

He'll need a separate team, or maybe two or three, for the Klintonx.

Great point---it was the Bush's that gave rise to the cunning Clinton monsters we have today.

They also got a huge leg up from beating GHWB.

Jeb was their choice for sure.....they know to beatup on the Bushs.

I’m voting for Trump, but I have to admit that Cruz took the night

It was awkward at times when Cruz threw out his prepared comments and then left a pregnant pause of less than excited applause from the audience.
