Take on the Debate

We feel it is our duty to break down the debates, so we had our interns stay up till 11:30 last night and we've come up with the following

Television has never been so good.  Trump vs Cruz, Cruz vs Rubio, Trump vs Bush, Christie vs Rubio, Rand Paul vs some guy sitting next to him at TGIFridays, this had all the fireworks and was probably/hopefully the last time we saw a few of these guys on stage.  Some observations

This debate misses Rand Paul, they could easily dump Carson or Kasich or even Christie but Rand Paul actually does bring something to the table.

TRUMP
Trump was his usual brash self, but with a little more juice.  He smells victory and now that the gloves are off with Cruz it could get ugly and that's great!!!.  Cruz got the better of him with the Clearly Canadian thing but Trump hit back hard with the New York thing.. although at the end, in his closing statement,  his line about how those 10 sailors being released because of the horrible Iranian deal was a bit of a head scratcher.  So was it a bad deal or a good one which got the sailors released quickly??

CRUZ   

Trump should start every rally with Frank's New York, New York, Cruz  should start his with Radiohead's Creep.

Forget the Megan's law creepiness for a minute, the twisted smile or the face of that weird Sesame Street Eagle, Cruz has a decent shot here..
He was well prepared for the Goldman Sachs thing although a million dollar oversight is a bit hard to swallow but, for today, he quieted the crowd.    Was also good on the Clearly Canadian thing deflecting that but Trump is right that there will be a lawsuit brought come a national election but then he got cocky and got hammered by Rubio on his record..  Overall Cruz continues to cruise.

CARSON. 

Please go home


RUBIO
It is shocking but he never goes off message, he is so rehearsed it is frightening and I can only imagine this guy stands in front of his mirror reciting the lines over and over again to the point it is all he can say.   Ask him about the trade pacts and he tells you how Obama is killing the American dream .  Ask him about Wall Street and he tells you how Obama is killing the American Dream.  

Ask him about Trump and he tells you that Obama is killing the American Dream.  Ask him about his new boots and he'll tell you that Obama is killing the American dream.  He is like one of my daughters broken dolls with a stuck on-button, he just repeats the same thing over and over again. I imagine him in the bedroom with his wife.  Oh Marco, talk dirty to me.   "I just love the way that Obama is killing the American dream"

CHRISTIE
Big Chris we get it, you were a US attorney general and you are a governor of a state that hates you but without Rand to pick on he seems out of place.  He threw all his weight to go extra tough on Obama which is a bit lame knowing you two sip cocktails with little umbrellas in it at Point Pleasant on the weekends..  He's hard to imagine as the Commander in Chief because he just never looks like he is calm.. the guy is going to have a heart-attack on stage one day...

KASICH

I'm fairly certain this is the last time we'll see Kasich, he's got a good message and all but really nobody cares, between the weird haircut, the fact he looks like he is making a pizza with the amount he throws his hands around and the fact that as compared to the rest of those Muppets he's just too normal.. in other words it's over.. time to go home

BUSH

This was probably Jeb's best performance.. which is so typical Jeb because when he finally shows some chutzpah it's when the elevator doors are closing.. There are times when he tries to knock Trump and it only gives Trump a chance to go off on all his crazy rhetoric.   It's almost like Bush is in the tank for Trump as he only gives him more airtime.. Trump pays him back for the airtime by shoving him back in his locker..

the one thing I read which is a great call is that Jeb looks like Will Ferrell doing George W Bush on SNL.
