    • A hidden video sting operation in Hillary's Nevada campaign. Nothing truly damaging, but it does seem to show Hillary staffers knowingly breaking Nevada election and voter registration laws.

          The smart-looking glasses didn't help much.

            This needs to happen a greater rate. There are just too many voices out there.

            • Who knows what to expect out of Trump's support at this point, but he looked terrible last night. Walking back the Fiorina comments with "look at her, she's a beautiful woman" was just bad. That said, I'm sure he'll rise another 10 points.

              Fiorina would be a good candidate except she has a pretty mixed record at HP and has never held elected office.

              Jeb looked horrible.

              Why isn't Rubio getting more support? I think he's been the best candidate in both debates. Why is anyone supporting Ben Carson?
              Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                Trump is a clown. His answer to what would you do with Putin is that he would get along with him and other world leaders? He has firm but misplaced confidence in his own abilities to persuade people like Putin or Assad to do what he wants. What a joke. Everyone voting for him gets what they deserve.

                I liked Fiorina coming into this debate but she did not impress me here. She would move strongly against soviet interests in Europe and Asia while at the same time refusing to talk to Putin? Brilliant. Lets just plan on a miscalculation somewhere that might lead to armed conflict. It is nice rhetoric but as someone else pointed out, even Reagan talked to the soviets.

                I thought Jeb did OK. But we just dont want another Bush.
                PLesa excuse the tpyos.

                • I still like Kasich. Just not flashy enough or right wing enough. Reminds me of Romney. Would be a solid President, but Americans don't go for solid people with solid backgrounds.

                  • i was hoping for more from Jeb. He didnt show well. Also he appears more frail than usual. He looks sick almost.
                    Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

                      None of them were stellar, but I agree with you that Kasich and Rubio are the best of the bunch.

                      Trump's answers were ridiculous. The answer to vaccinations had me scratching my head.

                      Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

                        Ha, I agree. Fiorina is good to have in the debates. She's smart and articulate and a woman! She's unelectable due to her record at HP and frankly I think she'd suck at the job.

                        Trump is horrible, but it's the only reason I watch the debates. I hate debates, but it's entertaining with him there.

                        Rubio and Kasich are good and I'd vote for them. Christie was better in this debate but I won't vote for him.

                        Bush....bleh...but I might vote for him.

                        Cruz is uber-creepy. Like, he was weird creepy last night. Huckabee can e s a d.

                        Carson puts me to sleep. Walker is dumb and pretty much a one trick pony.

                        Paul makes me laugh. He's good to have around so when Christie talks about using federal power to control states (like with MJ) he can remind people that isn't really a republican principle.

                        I still like Kasich the most. He doens't seem to pander to the TEA party people. He defends his decision to increase Medicaid in his state. He seems to have a rational approach to immigration. He has a record in balancing budgets.

                        THe moderator last night was really bad. Fox News seeemed to do much better...which is odd.

                            Fiorina is trying to channel Thatcher. I agree the Putin thing was the worst part of her debate, she was clearly boning up for the debate by reading some wikipedia articles.

                            On the other hand, her answer on the Planned Parenthood question was outstanding. She is going to win some points for that.

                            I thought Jeb looked awful. He would be a good president, but he can't win. The non Wall Street establishment needs to start looking for another candidate and they should be looking towards Rubio or Kasich.

                              That's too bad. Especially since the puppet masters huddled and decided he'd be the big ticket guy and Romney'd sit this one out. As bad as a candidate as he was last time running against Obama, I think he'd be particularly suited to tell Trump to STFU and basically take a victory lap vs Hilary.
