This question is a waste of time!

 

[devil21]

Most of these candidates are Catholics, acting like evangelicals.

 

[adam220891]

Terrible question and a waste of time. Should spend more time on the economy and job growth.

 

[squirl22]

oh no,walker and saved by the blood of jesus christ....so sorry for jesus

 

[timosman]

Oh Rubio, you are so smart ....

 

[fr33]

Onward Christian Soldiers!

 

[opal]

Rubio makes an attempt at humor.. audience responds

 

[brandon]

Man if rand took the platform of his father and presented it like trump he'd be killing it. The wishy washy political speak is just blending him into the background.

 

[juleswin]

So, what say you?

Not watching it either, but I know where people stand around here. Trusting whatever he says about Rand would make as much sense for you to take as gospel anything I have to say about Christie, a man who I hate even more than Trump.

Just wait for confirmation from more neutral posters.

Ok, rubio, that was a good line: God blessed us with many good candidates. The democrats can't find one.

 

[Aratus]

less than 5 minutes to go?

 

[Liberty74]

and the like rats fleeing a sinking ship, his supporters will soon leave his bandwagon.

Like they fled Perry, then Bachmann, then Cain, then Gingrich (although he made a little comeback), etc.

 

[rg17]

Megyn Kelly should quit Fox and become a pornstar.

 

[V3n]

Never noticed Rubio was a Vulcan before, you see those ears?

 

[Sola_Fide]

Nice answer from Carson on race.

 

[timosman]

Ok, rubio, that was a good line: God blessed us with many good candidates. The democrats can't find one.

Really ?

I got cutoff on the debate too. Going off what I've heard on these threads (Cruz being silenced, Carson a non-factor, Walker sounding stupid on a foreign policy question) then Rand did fine. He didn't hurt himself with anything he said and others who are his competitors for certain blocs of votes did. But Trump isn't a sideshow anymore. He's got to be taken seriously and dealt with in that matter. Rand isn't going to lead in the polls after this debate certainly he can keep himself in the top half of the field.

I also think at some point, the debate stage had to be whittled down to five or six serious candidates, not glory hounds looking for a book deal or talk radio gig. Even 10 is way too many. You can't have a good, quality debate with that many people, it's impossible.

Agreed, the answer on Israel Aid was his best in the 2nd hour. Still, I liked him in the 1st half hour even more. But, obviously, different ppl like different attitudes - whom do I tell that.
