I loved it when one of the moderators asked him "Can you do math?". After listening to him talk about his huge tax cuts for the rich, and his plan to replace medicare with health savings accounts, the answer is obviously an emphatic NO!!! No way is the guy Presidential material.

Establishment darlings Bush and Kasich did themselves no favors. Both needed strong, dominant performances to regain relevancy ... neither was up to the task.

It'll be interesting to see the post debate polls. I look for Carson to plummet everywhere except Iowa ... the Republicans there are a world unto themselves. As for the rest of the candidates, who knows how they'll stack up. Hopefully a bunch of of them will wind up at 1% or less, will see the writing on the wall, and drop out.
