CNN did a pretty good job except for some usual drama imposing lead questioning nonsense....it was a good debate.

Trump was powerful, Cruz precise as usual, Carson honest and human. The outsiders taking down the Repub establishment.

Love that pic!

I thought Trump won the debate. Cruz came in second and also had the best closing remarks.

I thought three people lost. Jeb Bush got his face danced on as usual. John Kasich is a douche four engine locomotive. Carly Fiorina’s new campaign slogan should be SHUT UP, CARLY!

And former federal prosecutor Chris Christie should invest in some Head and Shoulders.

HDTV reveals all.

Carley Fiorina wanted to get self-righteous when Bush was insulting Trump (and Bush forcing a snicker when Trump insulted back) She piped up about the candidates yelling. Then, later on, she was yelling.

He said enforce existing law, existing law mandates deportation of illegals.

Clear enough?

Overall strong debate, so so moderators. Confession leaning Cruz before debate. My ratings tonight

pretty much tie between Cruz, Rubio, Christie for best (yes I said Christie who didn’t even have on my radar)

I really thought Rand Paul was the worst. the others spread out in the middle. Kasich actually pretty good tonight. Trump won by not losing and I give him credit for taking a shot at the way they led all the questions at him.

Although completely unintentional by the Rep party, I think having debates hosted by hostile networks (CNN etc) is good practice for the R vs D debates. They will be completely presented with inaccurate and misleading questions and will have to handle - good training.

"Trump gives a great closing statement...covers all the bases...even our dear vets and our crap healthcare."

So, are we going to get the Canadian healthcare system or the Scottish system from Trump? Since they are both real swell according to him.

Trump did awesome aside from the pig fight he let Bush drag him into. Cruz did awesome aside from trying to overrun his talk time a little. Rand Paul surprised me with with really good sparring today.

Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, John Kasich just need to go away. Rubio and Christy didn't move the needle up or down. And at the kids table Huckabee and Santorum showed they should be moved up to Bush, Fiorina, or Kasich's podiums.

I am very impressed how he turned a potential disaster in his fight with Cruz into a victory. In 48 hours he turned it around and hit it out of the park

Agreed, he is just to laid back.

We know he is a brilliant man but it all come off lackadaisical in a world of extreme sports, and I respect any man that makes it look easy but will the masses?

We all know legal status and paying taxes will lead to voting privileges. Dems will say that isn’t so, but the minute they get leagal status and pay taxes, voting comes on it’s heels.

not that they don’t vote already. LOL
