Rowdy Republican Debate

I got up this morning made myself a cup of coffee and went online to watch last nights Republican debate I missed because of work. Boy howdy was it rowdy with Trump tossing around the word liar like an evangelist calls out sinners. Cruz and Bush lead the charge against Trump with Rubio chiming in and reassuring us he was a conservative. Kasich implored the rowdy bunch to make peace and love with one another in order to keep Hillary from winning the White House. Meanwhile Carson hid in the corner whimpering and begging us to check out his website because no one was hearing his message. When Bush slammed Trump for going bankrupt, Trump replied he never went bankrupt. Well technically maybe he didn't, but four of his companies did and that exchange was just arguing semantics. Cruz, well he slyly slid in a couple of items that told me he was watching what people like about Trump, and he was going to coat tail him on those. He spoke about the "establishment" unfavorably for one sentence and then he when he was booed for a comment he made to Rubio, he softly mentioned angering donors. Something Trump had done in grand fashion the debate before. The thing is he's A: playing catch up on that and B: not going to out Trump Donald, as witnessed in Trumps's closing statement where he said "Politicians are all talk and no action." Proving once again he is the true outsider and not afraid to ignite a flame. Rubio in his closing statement once again spoke about marriage being between one man and one woman. Listen up Marco, whether you want to admit it or not, that's getting to be an archaic way of looking at that. I'm twelve years older than you and I understand that. I thought younger generations were supposed to be a little more enlightened. Guess not in your case. Get off that band wagon and get to the more important issues. You know like jobs, economy, the Middle East, social unrest in this country. Things like that. I guess the debate went about as expected but one thing last night scared me. Jeb Bush said we need to take out Assad. The definition of insanity rule applies here. Bush have you learned nothing about the last sixty or so years of our doing this? Taking out a dictator never works, it makes things worse and makes us more enemies. Republicans and Democrats alike are speaking out about this issue. Bernie Sanders points out about the unintended consequences of this practice. Are you that anxious to prove you are one of the Bush Boys that you are willing to announce on national television that you would take out Assad which would likely put us in the middle of another war?!! Trumps big blunder, although it probably won't hurt him much, was pointing out that 911 happened on Bush's watch. He was expectedly booed on that but he's not totally wrong in acting as if Bush could have avoided it. Both Bush and Clinton had a chance to deal with Bin Laden and those who pulled off 911 but they failed to do so. I'm sure they didn't realize what was going to happen but their inactions allowed the conditions for that attack. So once again he has us talking about something we might have ignored. An online poll by Syracuse.com showed that in a poll of eleven thousand plus people 75 percent of them thought Trump was the winner as of this morning. It looks like Trumps momentum is continuing to build as the others scramble to shut him down. If they are going to stop him, I think they are going to need to narrow the field. Dog pile on the rabbit didn't work in Bugs Bunny and it doesn't appear to be working here.
