No he isn't! How do you arrive at that? Even Megyn Kelly had to admit on Twitter that Trump did well.

That's a DRUDGE REPORT poll - hardly what I'd call a mainstream audience, even a mainstream Republican audience.

That was pretty much my line of thinking as well. Nobody stood out and the results were pretty mediocre. Kasich probably came across as the only decent guy on the stage but I think hes better as a VP choice rather than acting as the main guy. If this crop is the best the GOP has to offer then Hillarys gotta love it. None of these guys could even beat Sanders. Sad.
