    It bothers me that the sheeple were impressed enough with Carly Fiorina to bump her to #2 in the polls. I was impressed by her, but not nearly enough to believe that she is not just another Rino.

    She was very impressive in a "debate" that basically told us nothing except that she didn't mind standing up to a blow-hard like Trump. This is the political system we've built. Sound bytes win elections and her sound bytes were the best this particular week.

    I'm ready to clear out some of the dead weight so MAYBE we can hear them talk about something important.

    Probably, but at least he didn't pander...I'm not sure that it will hurt him in the primary.

    Good point. Trump is the king of sound bytes, but his are not PC. That's what is exciting about him. He is not playing the game like it is designed to be played. The fact that he will not kowtow to the liberal media and apologize to Obama for someone else speaking the truth is priceless. Bush and most of the others would have been running over themselves to apologize.

    Both Bush and Rubio seem to be biding their time until the media decides to crucify one of the soundbyte candidates. It's risky for Rubio as he doesn't have the structure or money that Bush has, but strategically, they're both playing the long game.

    I will say that Rubio is my favorite Rino.

    Evidently you didn't watch the debates. Carson's only "claim to fame"is being a doctor. His pandering to get votes didn't allow him to set Trump straight about vaccines even though he has the expertise and knowledge to do so.

    I did watch them, but missed the vaccine portion. I'd say he's still got a lot of pandering left to do to catch up with Hillary.

    I thought he did set Trump straight?

    No, his response to Trump's claim that vaccines cause autism was VERY weak. He let Trump get the upper hand on this and then seemed to agree with him. He should have told Trump "what you are saying is totally false and you need to stop saying this nonsense". He should have asked Trump for specifics about the case he mentioned about a child that became autistic after receiving a vaccine.

    I admire Walker for this. He said he wanted to consolidate the conservative vote into a conservative who can beat the current front-runner (Trump). Good leadership there, imo!

    Love this counter attack by Carly Fiorina against the Democrats and Obama and Hillary that say the tape doesn't exist.
