I watched all THREE HOURS, there in the large room with the Reagan plane (I've been there - several times - it's an awesome place!).

MY reactions JUST TO THE DEBATE....

Trump - he blew it, he was by far the "looser" of the night.
Carson - who was quite the surprise last time and soared in the polls as a result - seemed quiet and off his game. I don't think he blew it, but he certainly seems to have lost his momentum.

Everyone else I think benefited, and probably up'ed their standing from the last one. In my opinion, Florina, Rubio, Bush and Christie all did especially well - but really all the rest did better than in the first. Florina's zinger about "all women know what you said" had to be the quote of the night (she's REALLY good with the one-liners, the ziggers.... and her parting speech was a CLASSIC!).


I'm still leaning toward Rubio but I'm still looking for a fallback because I just don't think he's getting off the ground. The debate moved me in the sense that there are now several I now would consider; my opinion of several went up significantly.



What's YOUR thoughts
(if you watched it)?

Do you know of a place online where we can watch clips of the highlights of the debate? I didn't have the chance to watch.

I think that Fiorina and Rubio benefited most. Bush and Christie some.
