I record the debates than view at my leisure. It also provides me the option of fast forwarding when needed.

And last night, more than once I did fast forward.
Each time the Rubio, Trump, Cruz shouting and interuption bouts began.

In my opinion all three candidates came across as very unprofessional and certainly not presidential. They remineded me of mid school kids in an argument and the best tool at their disposal was...VOLUME!

Trump came across last night as not very well prepared. Or he is showing the effect of melting down a little when under constant pummeling.
His cliches of believe me I know....or I have done that ......or I hired thousands....came off cheap as non factual anecdotes that at this stage of the campaign are wearing thin.

My expectation is that if nominated and then elected he is a smart enough manager to hire good people to do the work of the POTUS. Unlike Obama who has nothing but academics and intellectualizers.

And we should all keep in mind even the strongest outsider, which would be Trump, will find out soon enough that saying is one thing and doing perhaps a bit more difficult.......unless or until he does crack the current crony system.
Early on he would have an advantage as he does not know....does not need to know...how the crony system of governing works/or not. Therefore he will ask why and why not. And if he maintains his current aggressive persona as POTUS will in fact get more done than the typical crony, politics as usual puppets like Clinton and Rubio.

We shall see. I think it is time for the republicans to stop attacking each other and start demonstrating more information about how they will implement some of the promises being made.

I think Carson needs to pack it up.
Rubio will lose FL.
Kasisich will lose Ohio.
Cruz may lose TX.

After which each will have to reassess their position and ability to win against Trump.
