Have to say that I'm disappointed that Huck didn't talk about his FAIR Tax plan during a debate on the economy. Really a missed opportunity there. Huck really seems to be going after the senior citizen vote with his social security stance. Couple of good lines tonight (the runaway blimp one being the best!), but I thought Huck could've done better in this debate. He needed to insert himself into the discussion even when not asked a question the way Fiorina did on multiple occasions. The time alloted to the candidates was fairer in this debate than in the previous two, but again it was about a half hour into the debate before he got asked a question and he needed to jump into the mix sooner than that. Guess he's too nice for this stuff.
Jeb was the loser in this debate. Going after Rubio and then getting smacked down by Marco may have finished off Jeb's campaign. Kasich is a buffoon (sorry, but man was he desperate tonight). Trump was, well, Trump. Carson never seems to do well in these debates, but he connects with people in spite of that. Cruz and Rubio had strong nights. Fiorina had some good answers, but too often had run on answers that became tedious.Think her flame will continue to dim. Christie and Paul did pretty well, IMO.
I think Jeb and Fiorina will continue to see their numbers fall, which gives Huck an opportunity to jump up a few spots in the polls. Kasich, Christie and Paul won't get any traction from this, so Huck can stay ahead of them. That leaves Huck probably with a chance to slip into the #5 spot, but with alot of ground to make up to catch Trump, Carson, Rubio and Cruz. Could be alot worse than that though.
But wait, the all knowing Bill O'Reilly says it may be over for Huck, so I guess this is all for nothing now.
