I think Ben Carson is doing fine. Trump will take a small hit but not fall that much. Cruz will certainly have the base vote.

I have actually liked Christie, Rubio, and Kasich.
Cruz is just insane. He pretty much said the Chief of the Joint Chiefs is full of it and supports the ruthless dictator of Egypt.

But, honestly, you aren't getting real answers out of this joke of a debate. Most of these answers are wrong or are just insanely stupid.

Although, the moderators have been fantastic.
Rubio has been good tonight but he's just crazy. Really don't like his slimeball attitude.

Christie is just your classic politician. I see right through him. He's learned a lot from his buddy Obama.

Yeah, Wallace doubled-down after Trump made him look dumb for asking the question.

It was a topical question, but Wallace asked it in an unnecessarily confrontational way, and Trump made him look like an idiot.

I've enjoyed Kasich the most just wish he would get more air time. I thought Jeb has came across well and Cruz hasn't been bad.

My least favorite answer was Ben Carson wanting a tything tax system.

I prefer a consumption tax to a flat tax. The problem is call it a flat tax not tything. When you call it tything you turn off young middle of the road voters. Young people are turning away from reliegon at record rates and while the bible plays to the conservative base it doesn't play with the people who will decide the election.

i want a candidate who can win the election someone who will play to the voters not to the GOP base. The GOP base will vote for whoever has an R next to their name. Let's get someone who can appeal to the undecided voters
