I feel like they stuffed the hall with rubio fans. Yikes they like him. But he pretends he's not in the establishment, lol.

That's his whole campaign. Establishment candidate who tries to come across as outsider because he is young and hispanic.
 
Rubio is the nominee. It is becomes more and more obvious every day. He is owning this debate.

The debate? Perhaps.

But once again he's totally fucked himself for the general, if he gets the nom.

His answer to the question, "Hey, why aren't you doing your fucking job, Senator?" is basically, "Because my job is fucking stupid."
 
I feel bad for Huckabee because he has got a great retort to Christie but he just can't formulate it in a more effective way. He clearly wanted to say something with more punch, but he couldn't find the words.

Someone needs to take out Marco...he's bullshitting his way through

He's benefiting from the format right now. The bell on his time goes-up, and before anyone can really call him out, we're on a different question.

This tactic works well when there's a crowded field.

I don't recall Obama defending against things like that by basically saying that being a U.S. senator is kinda worthless.
Spun it more as Washington is broken, gridlock, etc. etc.

Rubio was just a little more honest unfortunately for him.

Works well in any timed, short reply, do not address the other candidates, etc. ANSWER ANSWER ANSWER debate.

That's why the Romney/Obama and Biden/Ryan debates weren't as insufferable as normal.

Rubio was just a little more honest unfortunately for him.

That's what I mused about in the debate thread too:

The problem is Rubio's attitude and lack of pretense towards missing votes, not that he misses votes. His problem is blatantly saying that he considers it a waste of time and doesn't want to do it, whereas other campaigns rightfully say they can't be in two places at once but wish they could be. They don't say they don't want to be Senator.

A lot of these answers start surprisingly reasonable, and then halfway through take a free fall into typical complaining about comrade Obama.

Old white men, Americas underdogs since the mid 17th century.
 
If you are moderating a Republican debate you better be prepared with the facts to back-up every quote or statistic. Otherwise, these people will just ignore you, and claim liberal media bias while you sit there with a dumb look on your face
 
I figured out Carson's bullshit

He gets called out on his HSA plan, and he says he scrapped that plan.
He gets called out on subsidies, and he says he scrapped that plan.
