You people actually watched. What a boring three hours that must have been. Was there anything new that hasn't been hashed out in the last 20 debates and townhalls.
And I'm sure Cruz never expected another candidate to blatantly send out a tweet, typed by that candidate's own fingers, insulting Cruz's wife based on her looks, of all things. Kasich had the right answer to that question in the end - We should have never agreed to that, but it was the first debate, we weren't aware of everything that would happen and it was stupid to do it.
But, listen Dude, they have all now said in various ways no or it depends on who. Either they are all justified or they are all wrong. This double standard that Trump supporters tend to have drives me nuts.

They all backed out of their pledges, but I do think it was significant that Cruz backed out first. Once he backed out, why should the rest support the nominee?
I bet he's color blind. It does seem like someone would clue him in.
I want to know why he can't get traction. Instead, as one comedian put it, we are stuck with Mussolini and Joe McCarthy.
Combination of
Media and campaign strategy. He has looked very well in the last 3-4 debates or tow halls. But you almost won't hear his name mentioned in between debates. If you're carol Costello on CNN for three hours on a Tuesday afternoon, exactly what about John Kasich are you going to talk about? The leading candidates are the ones that have been able to manipulate the news cycle. In this election, it seems 'no press is bad press.'

Trump's supporters consider his twitter rants "long reads", so it's no surprise they find the debates boring...

Oh, I don't know, maybe under the theory that you don't allow others' inability to do the right thing be an excuse for you to do the wrong thing. So, no, I don't think it was significant at all that he backed out first, he was just first up so he had to answer first. It was a really stupid pledge, and Kasich is right, none of them should have agreed to it in the first place. Honestly, I don't blame any of them for backing away from it and shame on Reince Pribus for putting them all in that predicament. But, unless you are just biased, either they all get a pass or none of them get a pass.

Yeah... Being told you are acting like a 5 year-old by the moderator and responding to it just like a 5 year-old would is comic gold and is already swarming the Twitterverse and YouTube.

Just watched this back and my God, how clueless can Trump be?! He said healthcare and education were two of the most important roles of government but claims he's against Obamacare and Common Core, which are government run healthcare and education. Then when Cooper calls him out on it, he backtracks and says it should be at the state level but government needs to play a role too. This pathetic fraud contradicts himself twice within a minute. What a complete joke. Cruz on the other hand was measured and knew his stuff, as usual. That's what a President looks and sounds like.

Cruz knew his stuff???? LMAO!!! Carpet bombing and refused to answer details?....Cruz is a joke that's why he is hated in the Senate by people that know him.
Trump always said healthcare and education should be in control at the state level.
take out your Cruz sunglasses.
