Trump walks slowly and stands by Carson and doesn't move till Carson is called.

Elaborate on what? Did you watch the video? Trump walks slowly and stands by Carson, refusing to leave Carson standing there awkwardly by himself.

ABC says Obama is the son of a white man from Kansas and a black man from Kenya

A lot of that going on. John McCain is a Colon baby.

They called it too close to Christie it seems.

She said it but it’s possible he didn’t hear because of that.

Watched up untill after the waterboarding thing. Cruz weaseled around the issue untill he actually said he would bring it back

Trump said he would bring it back after schooling about what evil we face. Then prompty said he would not only bring waterboarding back, but a lot worse.
OMG!!! The man is a maniac! He would treat those bastards like they treat their prisoners! (sarc)
Impaling comes to my mind.

That was one of the classiest things I have seen in a long time—maybe in forever in a primary season. Thanks Donald Trump.

HOpe this is seen by many who missed the debate.

The network clowns just read the names off without paying attention to what was happening on the stage or waiting until after the applause for each candidate.

Matha Raddowitz was the big loser. Such ignorant pre-suppositions in her questions.

CARSON WAS CALLED.
No fan of ABC but this time it was Carson. But I’m sure he will blame Cruz.

Carson had been called but he apparently wasn’t able to hear it...he wasn’t the only one - Kasich didn’t either. They should have waited to call names when the audience cheering had faded.

That Trump sure is classy - “tell them to go f-— themselves” “they’re full of s-—” from the campaign podium is the mark of class - very presidential - good role model.

It was very hard to hear the names because the announcer was saying them during the applause.

Very classy. Trump was willing to put himself out there, willing to risk being embarrassed by ABC, just so Carson wouldn’t be left there standing alone. None of the others that followed behind them were sure enough of themselves to take that risk.

It is in my books. I would think a wildcatter would agree. Probably just a spoiled Persian house cat tho, based on your highly feminine sensibilities.

I would say what a pussy.......cat.

SOMEONE had a list and said, "You ... here ... then you ... and you ..." etc.

And there was no reason to not stand backstage in waiting


SOMEONE gave the announcers a list and they read the names off and didn't even care if anyone showed up or not


SOMEONE said .... "Keep camera B on the backstage .... and SOMEONE in the booth had planned in advance for the entire confusing scenario to be broadcast live

You make a list of candidates, then you read names from that list into a microphone, and each candidate walks on stage.

Is that too complicated for ABC?

Carson didn’t hear his name, neither did Trump. They were both told by a stage hand but they just stood there looking clueless.
