That is certainly better than a vote for trump. Cruz, at the very least, has passed bills through the house. He’s worked for the country. trump has worked to make himself rich. Never a care for anyone else.

It’s not that The Donald simply hires lawyers. He’s a legal bully — bringing lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit against people because he’s a bully.

Part of this is the “fog of war.”

It isn’t always even clear what’s true about moving targets. Nailing down the domain of discussion is helpful.

Ted is looking smaller and smaller as this goes on. Now he is supporting the IRS unfair audits. Wonder how that is going over.

They are trying to come after Trump hard. I am shocked it took this long for the Trump University allegation to see the light of day.

"I completely disagree. Both Cruz and Rubio have drawn blood against Trump tonight. It is completely obvious."

They are, but the anger and revulsion is so palatable, that nothing will stop a Trump supporter from hearing a factoid like the Trump-University and having a second thought. I think the die is cast, we will see if I am wrong on this...

That's basically it. They're throwing rocks at a brick wall. Nothing sticking.

Trump wins. It is over

I have been taking notes to go back on after the debate to study:

Rubio: I will repeal it.

Trump: I will repeal it. But keep pre-existing condition. But I will repeal it, and we will build in competition to reduce costs.

Rubio: He repeats himself, he said repeal it twice.

Cruz: Donald Trump is a socialist. He said in 1989 he is for socialist healthcare.

Trump: I do not want socialist healthcare. Now, I will let people die on the streets in this country. We will not let them die in the streets.

Rubio: Excuse me! It is yes or no. He repeated himself.

Cruz: Yes or no. Are you a socialist?

Trump: No I am not a socialist. I am not a socialist. We have the highest taxes than anyone else in the world. My tax plan will bring an economy, and we have to go local. We waste all this money. We are going to cut. We are going to cut many of the agencies.

Rubio: See, I have to repeat. That he repeats himself. Also, I am not a socialist.

Cruz: He is a socialist.

Moderator: Govenor Kasich. Will Mr. Trump’s plan work?

Kasich: We did it in Ohio. We paid down. We did reasonable tax cuts. I fixed a hole in Ohio. And you know what? That is how I remember this fact. Because hole in Ohio sort of rhymes. And not can even believe it could happen, and I promise you that, the first 100 days.

Trump: They also stuck oil. And that helped a lot.

Kasich: We have medical devices. We have Amazon. You know why? Because we don’t raise taxes, jobs, jobs, jobs, that is what we need.

Rubio (thinking): should I say Kasich just repeated himself?

Moderator: Will you be polite to Trump?

Rubio: Let me repeat myself, Donald Trump repeats himself. And I am clever in repeating this. That Donald Trump repeats himself.

Trump: We have lines around the street.

Rubio: He just repeated himself. He said we again. Let me repeat. All he does is repeat himself.

Trump: We need competition, that is why we have lines around the street. Competition in healthcare will reduce the costs.

Rubio: Let me repeat about repeating. He repeated himself. I said it two seconds ago, and I will say it again. The solution to healthcare is not call people dumb. He said we again. He said lines again. So let me repeat again to your question about healthcare. He repeats himself. And after he responds I will repeat again, about him repeating. And hope you all clap again. I repeat, he repeats.

Trump: Every year, for 12 years, they audit, audit, audit me.

Rubio (thinking): should I say he just repeated himself?

Fake conservative moderator who has bad ratings: Mr. Trump, when are you going to release your tax returns?

Trump: Yes, I will release my tax returns, I won’t wait like Romney did until the last minute. But every year, they audit me.

Rubio: I was not ever audited. So that means I am a good boy. And that means Trump is a bad boy. And if I am President, I will audit Trump.

Cruz: I have released five year of returns. Donald Trump was audited. So he is not the right candidate. Because the Democrats audited him. So this is an example. He cannot be President. Because he was audited. And I was not. And any American whoever was audited, should not vote in this election. Because we cannot risk losing to Hillary Clinton in this election.
