Latest Republican Debate

From what I’ve seen of it (as much as I could stomach), I would say “So much for Rubio.” Christie went after him like a starving mutt after a bone. (And the bone got pretty chewed up.) Jeb!, I would say, owes Christie a debt of gratitude, now. Jeb!, meanwhile, is finally making Trump look like a chump. So Jeb! will probably go up in the polls in New Hampshire.
Christie is talented at coming across like a tough guy, but has no talent for actual governance.
Rubio looks like a boy pretending to be a man.
Cruz appears to be extraordinarily intelligent scum pretending to be human.
Kasich has physiological tics that belie his relative rationality.
Carson is an afterthought.
Jeb! has a brother named “W”.
Trump has a ceiling of those who can tolerate him, (although those who do, will tolerate absolutely anything he says or does.)
(And Fiorina - not even on the stage. Too bad… they could have all jointly formed a punk band called “Snow Queen and the Seven Dweebs”)
It is looking more and more, to me, like the Repubs are moving toward a brokered convention. It is looking like the battle for delegates will be a long disparaging haul.

They all sounded as if they are planning World War III.
Not half a brain between them! What a bunch of morons.

Especially Rubio. He kept repeating the same talking point even after being derided for doing so.

That was either sad or comical. It was as if he had one of those strings in his back that you pull and the puppet starts talking and no matter how many times you pull it the puppet just keeps saying the same thing. He appeared to be dismayed about the string but had no clue how stop it from being pulled

I believe I have one of their albums, ah yes here it is, right beside my copy of Donald Trump sings Slim Whitman favorites! Actually the one I fear the most is Ted "grandpa Munster" Cruz. His father touts him as the dominionist leader who will lead the Nation "back to God" or rather their interpretation of this extremist Evangelicalism. And IMO Ted really believes this BS. He is a potentially dangerous theocrat with an ultraconservative agenda and is emboldened by his "triumph" over Trump at the Iowa Caucus. Trump will probably crush him at NH but not enough to scare him out of the clown car. Remember that he has publicly stated many times that the Bible supersedes the Constitution and he continuously hammers home that America is a "Christian Nation". Trump on the other hand tends to downplay this rhetoric and pacifies his religious followers by telling them he actually attended church once, or a couple of times anyway. Cap't Jack

Seems to me that Kasich may be the best candidate coming out of all this, simply by virtue of being the least flawed in a field of the flawed.

The New Hampshire primary is virtually impossible to predict. But it’s happening today, and I can’t resist predicting something. I will limit myself to saying that I think Kasich will exceed expectations.
