Too bad!


Chris Wallace is a jerk.
I agree.

The moderators should NOT be the main issue.

It was too much about "me" with Kelly.

The constantly ask question in order to MAKE controversies with the candidates instead of real issue questions.

I wish they would ask 1 question and let EACH candidate answer it instead of jumping all over the place.

I also wish there was NOT a "junior" debate and those on the stage tonight below a 10% rating should NOT be there.

It dilutes the time the top rated candidates get to explain their positions.

NO issue can be explained in 2 minutes.

Trump is right about one thing though, it is ALL about getting viewers to watch for the networks.

Rubio did a good job, but he does come across as rehearsed. The good news is he will have four to eight years to work on his delivery. He may make it to the White House one day, but it won't be in 2017.

Agree. I'd vote for him in a heartbeat if he won the nomination.

I believe in the end nobody cares about this debate any more and we only have one big loser.

Fox News Channel as for a next debate the advertisers will not sign up until the last minute or hold out so it will cost them a ton of money in the long run.

Trumps still wins the nomination even if he skips all the debates.....it shows you it doesn't matter what the other candidates repeat themselves over and over and it shows debates are overrated.
I am among the undecided. At this point, I know who I won't vote for, but haven't narrowed down who I will among the rest of them. I have some I lean a little more towards, but so far the others are acceptable.

Except when he verbally attacks citizens at town halls.

The take-away from this so-called "debate" is that Cruz will now descend back into the also-rans. His 15 minutes are done.

You can't have it both ways haha...that was epic. When it comes to immigration and the amnesty. Cruz wanted to hide under a rock. Rubio looked like he was peeing his pants and what's his obsession with Guantanamo?


I think Jeb was funny and made some good points but he still looks like he wouldn't have the energy and we don't need another Bush.


Christie was to the point as usual and his funny comment about needing a translator to understand Rubio and Cruz and politicians in Washington.


Carson ........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz what, huh zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz


Paul is he only one who truly walks the walk for the most part.


Kaisich, eclipsed by all of them.
He might walk the walk, however, if he were to be elected, he would be beholden to whomever funded his campaign...

a lot of rich people put up a lot of money to get these boys elected, so they are going to tell you what you want to hear, and then, if you get in, you're their puppet...sorry but it's the name of the game, and in Paul's case, he's a good ol'boy, which means, he would more then hold up his end of the deal regardless of how he feels.

if they outlaw giving to campaigns I'd feel a whole lot different...and not vote for Trump.

regardless, no matter who gets in, you betcha I'm going to vote against Hillary, don't want anymore time with their kind of beliefs...it is ruining this nation.
