Well everyone but Kasich is attacking Trump. Not sure if it is working or not, but as Kasich pointed out he would believe people are saying what the heck is going on........ get on with the debate.....

So far, I've enjoyed it every time Fiorina says something. Not that I agree with her on everything, but I am impressed with how she responds to the questions.

Agreed. I don't necessarily agree with what she is saying, But she doesn't make me cringe or scream.

This is a much better debate than the previous one, but still, way too many questions asking candidates, this person said this about you. What do you want to say about that to them? That is not debating.
Fiorina is doing pretty good Bush is better, but I do not think he is helping his cause enough, Christie is holding his own. Carson keeps saying, "here is what I actually said " when a moderator gives a quote of his to someone. And he gives a good sermon on it. Huckabee is better, but too little too late. Paul, is lost up there Cruz and Rubio were heard in the earlier segments, but sort of shut out of the debate in the last two segments. Okay, Bush is giving as good as he got from Trump right now. Walker is making points, but is anyone listening to him? Kasich is having a good night so far.

Huckabee makes me want to vomit. He wants a theocracy.

Huckabee doesn't bother me, probably because I feel he has no chance of winning the nomination, let alone the presidency. Trump would bother me if I could make myself take him seriously. But the one that I have the most negative reaction to is Bush.

Why would an avowed Dem put herself through such a bad time tonight?
It still does not make Hillary any better. And speaking of Hillary, outside of round one, nary a mention of her.

I'm not sure if you were asking me, or Oped. But for me it's not a bad time. I've always been fascinated by political processes (my degree is in political science. )

Well I remembered the "debate " was on and clicked it on...lost first 28 minutes of it..came in when it seemed the only thing going on was a back and forth between Donald and Florina..something along the lines whoe's was the biggest or something like that..[ believe Donald won that one}
I did get the impression that there was definitely a consensus that the President and Ms Hillery were responsible for all the ills of the nation..in fact all of the ills of the Americas..North and South..in fact throw in Europe, Middle East, Far East.Northern and Southern Hemispheres..actually add in solar system in fact the universe..from the beginning of time to the exact current time and beyond...

But the one that I have the most negative reaction to is Bush. I just do not get that negative push against Jeb. He ran a state of 17 million people. He ran it well. He was popular with it's citizens. Yeh, I get it. He is the son of Bush I The brother of Bush II But I think he is his own man.

About last night's debate. After the first hour was wasted by moderators and the candidates trying to destroy Trump, by making it all about Trump, we got down to an actual debate. Big winner: Carly, on specific stands on issues plus she knew no one would attack her tonight, because she was the only women up there. She had that fire in the belly speech night and did a really good job of presenting herself to America. That and she wants to take on Hillary. Bigtime. Good job!
Stood his ground but dinged a bit, Trump, who also realized he could not zing Carly publicly on stage. First sign of political correctness from him. I liked Christie. He made it all about the middle class. Rubio did a good job, but I do not like the fact he has deserted his Senate seat, and admitted as such to Trump. Talking heads say Kasich had a poor night. I thought he was good. Oh well...... Huckabee.....oh well, next! Carson, kept his same composure we have come to know. He has to learn to yell, to get his response in like everyone else did. He admitted afterward he is not comfortable in this debate style, plus he felt the moderators lost control of the stage a couple of times. He is correct on this. Jeb, did good, but I am afraid not enough. Walker, the moderators just about ignored him tonight. He had to yell to even respond to issues posed to others on the stage. Cruz, I guess he did okay, but not my cup of tea. Paul, weird argument of drugs and Carly buried him on it, as did Christie. He is toast, but not necessarily from just tonight.
Much better debate premise than FOX last month, but CNN still fell into the trap of making it about "so and so said this about you. What do you want to tell that candidate (99% Trump) about that statement?" It probably did not hurt Trump's base of support and probably makes them even more fervent for him. Over all great night,no one made a Jerry Ford type mistake- "Poland" remember that one? Or Perry, four years ago. I do not think anyone was knocked out of the contest tonight based on their performance and answers.

Exaggerate much? And you should have watched the first debate also.

Or perhaps they've been planning Hillary talking points for so long, they want to use them.

The only thing I got out of the debate is Trump likes to make goofy, mocking faces. Trump is the new Lon Chaney.
