The Last GOP Debate Before Super Tuesday

++Drudge has it that Trump won with 63.89% of the vote,Cruz 17.82%, Rubio has 12.7%. Kasich got 3.9%,Carson got 1.98%.

++The subject matter didn't deal with anything that Americans could fathom. Rubio and Cruz attacked the Donald throughout the debate but I felt Trump dominated.

++I actually was for Trump's explanation about not releasing his tax returns while they are being audited. In fact,Carson piped in with his audit story. 

++Rubio tried to hit Trump with hiring illegal immigrants,citing his mother was a waitress. 

++Josh Marshall felt that Rubio and Cruz lost themselves in their attacks. Trump called Rubio a "chock artist" and Cruz a "liar". Both men just complained that Trump just insults people. 

++After the debate, Andrew Cuomo interviewed the Donald who said he liked the process and the debate format but CNN was unfair to Dr. Carson, whom they ignored. 

++Kasich did his "Moderate" governor schtick. He's not.

++The Donald asserted no one would die on the streets of America during his presidency and Cruz and Rubio can allow that to happen.

++Univision went after Trump for his standing among Hispanics. Trump just bluffed his way out of it while Cruz and Rubio tried to downplay their Hispanic nature.

++I felt Trump did what he had to to maintain his momentum through Super Tuesday. Trump thought some people should drop out. He was explicitly referring to Rubio.

++Trump's statement about being neutral in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict brought fire from Rubio and Cruz who pledged they would always take Israel's side. I thought Trump got the better of them by saying he gave more money to Israel than either one of them.

++Trump said he changed his style tonight because his abrasive style got him to this point but he wanted the focus on policy. Because policy is easy for him since he graduated from the best schools.

++I felt Romney's persistent tweets even through the debate on Trump's taxes would do either Rubio or Cruz any good. Trump's response is that Romney was a horrible candidate who should have beat President Obama, a sentiment shared by Republicans. Although by mid-summer of 2012, it was clear Romney could not win, despite Karl Rove's election night tantrum on Fox News.

++Trump is winning the GOP primaries because he has none of the baggage of the GOP past,which Rubio and Cruz must maintain.

++I also felt that Rubio and Cruz were obnoxious in their attacks of Trump. They came across as unlikeable and going for the soundbite.
