    wtf was that from Rubio. Cringeworthy and sad at the same time. Christie went for the kill and showed no mercy though.

    Rubio sounded like a freaking robot. Lol

    Christie's skills as a former prosecutor showed. He made Rubio look like a fool.

    As an independent with no leaning, I have ZERO confidence in Bernie's ability to accomplish anything. He's at the very bottom of the list IMO. I can't even imagine him being president.

    Has anyone ever seen a presidential candidate malfunction like this? Just repeating the same thing over and over (while being called out on it). So odd. Rubio would **** his pants daily having to deal with the pressure of being POTUS.

    Not if he had a good supply of bottled water.

    Wow what a rookie mistake. Unbelievable for someone who had to talk a lot in public. The way he finished the sentence (volume and the tone of his voice) it was not clear that he was finished. I understand that nobody clapped.

    Bless Carson's little heart!

    I actually thought it was a nice move by Trump, waiting to come out until Carson (finally) got his introduction.

    Carson is like a Will Ferrel character brought to life.

    And, yeah, that was a cool move by Trump.

    Classy move by a classy guy. Don't listen to the lamestream media. Trump is a sweetheart of a guy even though he's a tough cookie at the business table.

    Does Chris Christie really think his hardcore stance on mar1juana is going to help him?

    Probably. Christie is a moron and honestly he's swinging for the fences, he got basically no support in Iowa and is still at like 5% in New Hampshire. Deep down he probably knows that his campaign ends today.

    How badly will the last debate hurt Rubio in the NH polls? I winced when I saw that portion of the debate. I still like Rubio but something like this will have me reevaluate the other candidates again.

    Looks like he took about a 1% hit while losing some momentum.....all so Christie could pick up 2%. There's no question that it was a huge boost to Trump, so Christie can be happy about that. Honestly he'd make a fitting VP for Trump. Make it a total clown show.

    When it's all said and done, what are the chances of Rubio becoming the Republican nominee?
