    Just remember that he's on stage with somebody who will say just about anything at just about any time. That's got to be causing some dysfunction in his ability to communicate.

    Churchill would have taken the careful route every time if he had to negotiate with Stalin in front of 60 million viewers on live TV and actually achieve anything.

    We have no idea how the conversations would have gone if the GOP had held their debates in private in a conference room where any mistake didn't sink you except the guy who could talk about murdering somebody and not losing votes.

    I thought Rubio, Cruz, and Kasich did well. Trump was exposed and looked terrible. HOWEVER, those other 3 looking good actually helped Trump. His supporters are going nowhere, now any new supporters of the other 3 will spread out between them. Edge: Trump.

    Should have been done years ago. That's a State function. Arizona has different needs than NJ.

    Dept of Ed same thing.

    It's called pulling off Democratic voters.

    Cruz: We've beaten Trump in 5 of 15 states. We've beaten Trump over and over again.

    Would anyone say that the Jets are beating and beating the Pats if the Jets won 1 out of 3? :)

    Fox does the worst job with the debates. They have Varney and Dobbs on FBC, who could balance out any one of the three with the got ha questions.
    Don't blame the candidates for lack of policy tonight, blame the mods.

    I think his point was contrasting to Robot who is getting his ass kicked...

    The Jets are like the Robot...

    I liked how he got in his "we're the only ones who have beaten Donald Trump" mantra on Tuesday, just minutes before Marco Roboto took Minnesota....someone must have been in his ear to get that in QUICK

    No, NBC news reported four days ago, the last rating was an A.

    There is no current rTing because the company is no longer in business

    The BBB is a bunch of BS...it's pretty much a pay to play scheme.

    Fee down here is $495 per year (no way in hell I'm wasting money on that)...No one cares about a BBB rating these days.

    My point more or less was megyn kelly had to know NBC reported on the A rating 4 days ago. Just like she knows as a journalist, that the NYT leaking the off the record conversation was a serious breach of journalistic ethics. By pushing both gotch points, she showed she has none either.

    Here goes Luntz and his focus group. It looks like he got the memo from the top - no more Rubio. So, now instead of declaring Rubio the winner, as his focus group have done pretty consistently before, they are trashing him :)

    The buckeye bunny and I saw it roughly the same as Luntz' group.

    Kasich
    Cruz
    Trump ( and fwiw, his performance was off more due to megyn kellys inaccurate, and unethical fixation on erroneous premises.)
