Fox business GOP debate

[Brian Stirling]

Is Bush even trying? Everyone else is at least making an effort to fight for time....

Yeah, I think he's a dead man walking, though clearly not talking. He has the cajones of a 10 year old boy in the Vienna Boys Choir.

Carson looks like a fish out of water. He has no business being up there.

Tough to have balls when 200 billionaire donors have an iron grip on them, threatening to rip them off the first second he doesn't say what they want him to say.

Carly Fiorina surely loves the word 'crushed'

 

[K1052]

Ooh...little passive aggressive there at the end moderators.

Closing speeches

I like rand Pauls new message. I totally disagree with a lot of his policies but his message asks a very good questions.

Kasich and fiorina both went with the tried and true fear approach.

Bush's closing argument was forgettable.

What the hell was Cruz talking about?

Rubio sounds like he ripped off a Reagan speech.

Carson, almost had a good speech but threw in some shit about political correctness.

Trump, diarrhea of the mouth.


Not a bad debate from what I saw.

 

[K1052]

She loves the sound of her own voice more than anybody up there, which is no small accomplishment.

Winners? Losers?

Winners? Losers?

Biggest loser was Bush, IMHO. Not sure about the winner. Maybe Rubio just because the establishment may go for him with Bush crashing.

 

[soundforbjt]

Fox thinks Rubio won so far.

 

[Jadow]

Rubio is the nominee

 

[LegendKiller]

Fox thinks Rubio won so far.

Of course they do. He is establishment. He is also pro TPP, pro amnesty, pro super pac. I don't think that will play well with the base.

 

[ivwshane]

I think we can all agree that bush is the biggest loser. Agreed?

Winners: Cruz CRUZ cruz bigtime
Rubio looks pretty
Paul sounded like the sanest man there


Losers: Carson for being a drugged up pathological liar
Fiorina for interrupting people and never shutting up
Bush was a silent clown


Unaffected: Kaisich sounded eh. Trump was unprepared and stupid but that's what his supporters loved.

True for pretty much all of them except Kasich.

 

[LegendKiller]

True for pretty much all of them except Kasich.

All kasich has going for him is what he did 20 years ago. Otherwise he is another establishment rino

I just didn't see anything Cruz brought but I agree with your overall assessment.

 

[LegendKiller]

The one thing I am fucking tired of hearing is "I will rebuild the military". We have 10 supercarriers (nobody else even has 1), 14 ballistic missile submarines or SSGNS that launch hundreds of tomahawks, we have squadrons of the most advanced fighters in the air, anti ballistic missile nets, bunker busters, drones...etc. our military is multiples times stronger than the next closest so shut the fuck up.

He brought a smack down of kasich and pro amnesty by pointing out the field should care more about americans than non americans.

I'll fucking drink to that!!

He had is little anecdotes and clever quips about Hillary that always got applause and I bet you he comes out near the top on time. He really knows how to inject himself into a situation. He's just really polished with that crap and it makes him look good despite the actual facts behind his statements being bullshit. He also has the sense not to pick fights with Carson or Trump. He's the real dark horse candidate though because Rubio is the establishment darling, I'd say it's between rubio and him already though. Soon the evangelicals will realize carson is totally unviable and Cruz is waiting to pounce on that fleeing support.

That seems to be the consensus on the networks.

 

[ivwshane]

Trump said he's making tv ads now, "really positive ads".

 

[Fanatical Meat]

My apologies if I'm wrong. I missed pretty much the entire debate. Did I hear Carson say he would let banks fail even if it meant deposits were lost because that's what made America great decades ago?

Maybe, but he's the only sane one who could theoretically run this country on that stage.
