I said no such thing. You should read my comments. I noted that the candidates have promised unlimited benefits for veterans, and some even suggested vets should have preferential treatment for educational and employment opportunities. Yet, many of these same candidates have been in positions to increase veterans benefits and have not done so.
Kasich easily the candidate I would be quickest to support. Christie has had a decent night. Rubio had a rough night, but still might be the face of the new GOP.
Unfortunately, once again, no one laid a hand on Trump.

Just admit it.
You're myopic.
I've torched everyone I could be "affiliated" with tonight.
The next time I see you take your party to task will be the first time.
Yeah, I agree. That one will be likely the easiest remark to refute or fact check. I guess he thought it was a good remark to try and illustrate his point when he truly should have known it was a big lie.
I imagine that will be a good soundbite by the Dems, if needed.
Gosh... some of these guys are sleazy.
The thought of anyone on the stage being President, outside of Christie, scares the hell out of me. It's hard to fathom how a Party with so many candidates could gather such a weak appeal.
The audience certainly appeared to be primarily a Bush crowd. Guess all that superpac $$$ at least buys you "butts in seats".

Christie knocked Rubio in the mouth on more than one occasion. His "See, there's his memorized speech" remarks were VERY effective. Rubio was flustered, big time. His only reflex was to go to his "Obama bash" remarks.
If this debate has any influence on voters... Rubio is the biggest casualty.
CNN said Rubio repeated the same Obama line 4 times.i wasn't paying close enough attention but I thought I was experiencing deja vu
I'm not sure just how much he hurt himself tonite, but Rubio acted mad and confused when Christie went after him. Clearly Rubio struggled, but he's still the most likely option if you don't like Trump or Cruz.
My point remains the same... this is NOT a strong field.
BTW: Please get Carson to leave the debate stage and go sell books at Barnes and Noble.

Fear mongering and prep for increased military spending?
We have 36 nuclear subs and 30 destroyers sitting in Philadelphia that we don't even use. Why do we need a bigger military?
