THE REPUBLICAN DEBATE

Ken Berwitz

A few preliminary thoughts:

A terribly structured debate.  Trump being given far more time than any one else, several others being virtually shut out.
Too many questions in the first half on  BS things and not enough about substantial issues
 Donald Trump, by his words, facial expressions and body language, is showing himself as an arrogant, obnoxious self-promoting horse\’s ass.  Fair enough.
Bush doing very well. Better than I would have expected, given his usual low-key demeanor.
Ben Carson remains a brilliant pediatric neurosurgeon, who doesn\’t sound as if he has any answers as a President. 
Chris Christie, in his limited opportunities to speak, sounds intelligent, credible, and as if he can connect with the average Joe.
Scott Walker, also with relatively few opportunities to speak, sounds pretty good. So does Marco Rubio.
More later.
