[restorefreedom]

12. fiorina won

but the american people lost because they are all lunatics

[Agschmid]

13. Well *WE* haven't lost yet, but we better get off our asses and make sure we don't.

[restorefreedom]

22. in a two party system,

it is a pitiful shame that one of the two parties can't find ONE FUCKING REASONABLE PERSON!!

sorry not yelling at you....frustratometer off the scale...


(straightening shirt and regaining composure)

[LiberalElite]

27. Hey - Bernie's

a fucking reasonable person, no?

[restorefreedom]

41. most definitely. bernie rocks

but the fact the other side can't produce one even semi reasonable person is so sad.

[LiberalElite]

44. Yes. I don't know about you but

I'm old enough to remember when Republicans were sort of normal - there were conservative Republicans (of course) moderate Republicans and even (GASP!) liberal Republicans. There's a big convention center in NYC named after a liberal Republican - Jacob Javits.

[restorefreedom]

59. me too

they used to be normal people, just conservative.

sigh.

[dilby]

14. I don't know who won but I can tell you who lost.

The American people.

[Agschmid]

19. Not yet, but it's damn sure a concern.

[Cheese Sandwich]

16. They're all losers

All these people are either idiots or dangerous cryptofascists

[Agschmid]

20. Hold on...

Have to get my dictionary.

[Cheese Sandwich]

24. lol

crypto-fascist = in the closet fascist

[Agschmid]

26. Phew...

Thanks, sometimes these big words make my head spin... Though that could be the VT Vodka.

[dixiegrrrrl]

63. Gay fascists???!!!!

Now you're talking!

[Cheese Sandwich]

64. other closet

[yuiyoshida]

67. This, i said as much, down thread

there are no winners here in this debate, only losers.

[rug]

18. Clinton.

[Garrett78]

21. In a sane world...

I'd say Kasich won. And a Kasich-Rubio ticket would represent the Republican Party's best chance at winning. But that's probably lost on the audience.

[LiberalElite]

30. .

oh, and

[Garrett78]

35. Kasich-Rubio is puke-worthy to be sure.

But I also think that ticket (Ohio-Florida, relatively sane candidates) would give the GOP their best shot.

[LiberalElite]

37. Yeah. Might have to stock up

on barf bags. One more:

[kelliekat44]

23. Paul nt

[kelliekat44]

65. He received the least applause so I know he was saying something right. I agree with him about

no boots on the ground, war, pot, vaccines, incarceration. He won't make a wave with the base but he is more reasonable on more issues. Pataki was next to me.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

72. I agree. If I HAD to have one of them think it would be Paul. I could

not believe, right out of the gate - Trump slammed him - no worthy to be there.

[riderinthestorm]

29. Rubio is almost invisible up there... Edited to say, he's woken up nt

[TheCowsCameHome]

31. Democratic candidates.

This gang of clowns is over the edge.

[Agschmid]

32. Yup.

[Scootaloo]

33. Beat me to it

[herding cats]

43. I agree, with one caveat

Republicans can beat us if they get more people out to vote than we do in key states.

I don't think it's likely, but it's still a possibility I pay attention to at all times. Over the past 16 or so years of my adult life I've witnessed some things take place in politics I wouldn't have thought possible from a thinking, intelligent population. If I end up seeing one of these blathering idiots become president I will be surprised, but not totally shocked.

[procon]

36. The Ghost of Ronald Reagan won.

He was the only one on stage with an original thought... even as senile as he was.

[MADem]

38. I voted for Christie not because I think he has "won," but because

he has done himself the most good up to this point.

Fiorina did get a big applause line but I don't think she's sustainable.

Carnival Cruz is whiney--his voice grates. I've spent some time looking at the television, and some time listening to vocal tone alone, and Cruz is ANNOYING.

Huckabee looks unready.

Rand Paul did have 'a' response to a question that sounded 'adult,' but he's not being given much opportunity.

Carson sounds like the same idiot in "Bad Lip Reading" on YouTube.

Jeb is very forgettable. Rubio, too.

Kasich needs more questions--he sounds the most mature.

It really IS a clown car.

[City Lights]

39. I didn't watch, so I voted "pass."

I couldn't stomach seeing any more Trump.

[MADem]

42. There's an hour to go, yet--this is an endurance race.

Three hours of hellish standing. UGH.

Wonder who is wearing support socks and a diaper!!!!!!

[Scuba]

40. Squat Wanker, by saying virtually nothing, embarrassed himself the least.

[Agschmid]

45. I assume you mean "walker"...

Yah that's got to be it.

[Blue Owl]

46. None of the above

n/r

[NYCButterfinger]

47. Rubio, Trump, Fiorina

I think the VP race will come down to Fiorina, Pawlenty, and Rubio. Pawlenty may be used as the "Midwestern veep", he's more smarter than Walker.

[yuiyoshida]

49. for one reason or another...they are all

losers.

[Binkie The Clown]

51. Didn't watch it. Don't care. Any one of them would lose to Bernie. n/t

[itsrobert]

53. The Democratic Party nominee

Whoever she may be.























































Or he.

[Warpy]

55. I didn't watch but read the ongoing thread over with my homies,

the foul mouthed knitters. I have no clue who won, but after >550 replies to the thread, most of them are drunk on their butts.

I can't drink so I don't even try to watch that shit unless the sound is off.

[demwing]

57. I voted Cruz

Cause I felt sorry for him, sitting in that list with no votes...

[LostOne4Ever]

60. I think Rand Paul did the least bad of the lost of them. (nt)

[stevenleser]

61. There are really two questions. Who would a normal person think won, and then second, who

would the Republican base think won.

A normal person would probably think Rubio or Kasich won.

The Repug base? I'm guessing they are going to think Trump won again.

[Garrett78]

66. Sane and Wrong vs. Insane and Wrong

A Kasich-Rubio ticket (Ohio-Florida, relatively sane candidates) would give the GOP their best shot. But, like you, I doubt the Repugnant base would agree and is probably barely aware of who Kasich is.

I honestly don't have any idea how the average Republican would answer the question posed in the OP, as I don't have access to a brain that works the same way. Maybe Fiorina. Maybe Carson. Hell, maybe even Trump, though it seems he got slapped around pretty good tonight.

Mainstream candidates, especially Bush, seem to be totally thrown off by the presence of and seeming success of Trump. Trump says something outrageously rude or false (or both), Bush responds, Trump denies and insults, they go back and forth a bit, and in the end it seems like the audience is on Trump's side. It serves those mainstream candidates right, because they've established a climate in which extremism and nonsense can take hold. I might add that the Democrats are complicit, as well, in that they haven't voiced a strong enough opposition over the years.

[stevenleser]

68. Well, if the Drudge Report online poll is right, its Trump in a runaway

https://polldaddy.com/poll/9081166/?view=results

[Aerows]

62. I voted Trump

but honestly the people that won that debate were the people that were doing other more enjoyable things that watching that bunch of idiots wharrbargle.

Please assist me in choosing a winner:

1.
2.
3.
