I was a little disappointed in Trump because he didn't take advantage of some golden opportunities in that debate.

Wish he'd "leak" that he's considering Carson or Carly as a running mate. I thought Carly had some wonderful answers, and she's got some tenacity.

Carly may have turned in the best debate performance of the day. She dominated the early debate and her six opponents did not do a bad job, the just ran into a buzz saw.

As for talk of running mates, I think that would have been seen by many as a bit disrespectful to his opponents. I love Ben Carson, but I want to see Republicans run a bulldog as the VP candidate. Fiorina fits that bill and so does Ted Cruz. As I said in another thread, if Hillary wins the Dimocrat nomination, then Republicans should run somebody who can make Hillary feel like she is a defendant in a criminal trial.

In fact, maybe the Republican candidate should consider promising Hillary a pardon if she withdraws from the campaign. Give her the full Nixon treatment, which is more than she would have done for him. Nixon was a choirboy compared to the Clintons.
