Good summaries of Trump's debate:

He was clownish, he changed his mind over the course of the debate, he had his butt handed to him over and over by both Marco and Ted. He was found to be making false statements, his economic policy was proved not only to be a disaster, but it was shown that he himself couldn’t even articulate it, much less a defense of it. He couldn’t even muster a strong response to the Romney question. On the scale of fail he hit a solid ten: total dumpster fire.

Except for one thing. Donald promised to support the nominee of the party no matter who it is. That was a good line for him, even if he doesn’t mean it, and will play well for him.

.........

Showing how weak Donald Trump is before attacks on his tremendous, yuge vanity. He crumples. He falls apart. He talks about his ding dong. The extent to which Marco can easily send Trump into a panic by mentioning his hands or tan is just a shadow of how easily the Democrats will handle him. They won’t have to mention policy. Just his hair. Or his stump fingers. He’ll fall apart.

Marco also crushed Trump’s lack of substance on foreign policy, asking him if he would ever offer any policy details in answer to a foreign policy question. Predictably, Trump responded by taking a petty swipe at Rubio.

...........
On Trump University—where Trump’s best defense was telling voters that they should “wait a few years” to see whether or not he committed fraud, Cruz flashed in with a rapier: “Megyn, let me ask the voters at home, is this the debate you want playing out in the general election?”

Trump was supposed to win OK by 11 pts per RCP poll avg. Cruz won by 6. Trump was supposed to beat Rubio in VA by 15 points - same polls. The spread was 3 pts. The same polls had Cruz ahead of Trump by 9 pts, turned out that spread was 18 pts.

.....you have to look at the poll dates....two La polls only a few days old have Trump up 18 and 20 on Cruz........scary stuff.......they were before the debate though.........tough to make up that spread.........a lot of people have to come to their senses...........senses many of them simply don't have.........that's just the way it is.
