I agree it was a complete waste of time for everyone. The candidates did not answer questions but only gave their own talking points that aides had previously prepared for them. Walker was the biggest joke out there followed by Paul, Huckabee, Cruz, Carson, and then Bush.

Trump spoke his mind and it looks as though Fox's plan to make him look like a clown failed completely.

Go independent, Donnie!

iNTERESTING and CONFUSING critique.

The candidates had one minute to respond.

Seems like someone had a pre conceived idea going in.

EVERYONE I heard EXPECTED the talking point because of the restrictions.

To get depth do some reading on positions on each candidate.

In a press release, Donald Trump crowns a winner in the first GOP debate last night. Unsurprisingly, the winner is Donald J Trump by a landslide.

No way would Fox have three times the viewers of the last debate, if it were not for Trump being on the stage.

And no need for Fox or the RNC to worry about any other candidate running a third party campaign because no other candidate has the money to do it. A third party run would take tons of money and lots of organization. Trump has the money, but whether he has the organization remains to be seen.

This is the spotlight she deserves:

"there’s no way Carly Fiorina can ignore her tenure at Hewlett-Packard, which she ran as CEO for six tumultuous years before the board ousted her in 2005. By that time, the company’s stock had lost about half its value and tens of thousands of people had lost their jobs."

She would appear to be excellent Presidential material.

She seems to be in pretty good company....Steve Jobs was "ousted" by his board of directors also.

I watched Happy Hour and Prime Time. Take it for what it is worth I believe Bill Hemmer and Martha McCallum as moderators did a better job than the prime time moderators!

Your post is not a surprise. I wonder if any of those folks got killed, and whether she blamed this on a video. Did she say "what difference does it make?" Did she jeopardize national security by breaking classified materials storage laws?

Between the two, Fiorina is still the better choice, over the sea hag.

I totally agree with you. I felt the earlier debate was much better orchestrated and that the moderators did a much better job. I would call the difference between the 2 debates as follows - the first one was a professional job while the second was more for entertainment.

Did not really see Trump as winning the debate last night.
