Er, no. I Tweeted the debate from minute one. Cruz was slow out of the gate, then Fox ignored him for about 20 minutes. He came on VERY strong at the end, esp. "what I'd do on my first day," but it was too little too late.

Oh, and memo to Cruz, Paul, and Rubio: NEVER say "I sponsored legislation . . ." This comes across totally as "inside DC" and "the system is broken" and by inference, they're helping to break the system." It has to be phrased another way.

I haven't seen a breakdown of how many minutes each candidate got. I too thought Cruz wasn't getting his fair share of questions. I'm sure someone out there was keeping a time clock.

And in the after-debate when Kelly was quizzing about how the candidates did, she mentioned everyone BUT Cruz.

Yes, I'm a Cruz supporter all the way.

Maybe the wisest advice today on all FR threads!

(But then, I think maybe there should be a constitutional amendment against allowing first-term Senators to run for POTUS, maybe even second-term Senators.)

“too little too late” Not entirely his fault. He was ignored for an hour.
