- 01:00:41 Not at home. But debate audio on my phone. :-)
- 01:10:01 Retweeted @PoliticalLine 01:09:43 Ben Carson lights his advice on fire…
- 01:11:21 11 minutes in. Actual debate hasn’t started yet. :-/
- 01:15:52 Finally starting? Woo?
- 01:18:35 Just listening, no video. They said some of these names more than once. Just disorganized?
- 01:19:37 Retweeted @LarrySabato 01:17:38 Incredible screw up in candidate order intros. Very very weird.
- 01:20:02 To Trump: Will you really nuke Denmark?
- 01:23:59 I am going to have to look for video of everybody getting confused in the intros later. Sounds like it was great fun.
- 01:26:54 Spending time on this Carson/Cruz spat is a waste of time.
- 01:30:03 Rubio: Joe Biden’s been around 1000 years.
- 01:32:14 Retweeted @MichaelSkolnik 01:30:58 Rubio (out of context): “We should all rally around Joe Biden.” #BestThingYouEverSaid #GOPDebate https://t.co/qIpHQcJQqm
- 01:34:32 All the non-Trump folks sniping at each other instead of going after Trump plays right into Trump’s hands.
- 01:39:32 EMP! Who has that in their drinking game?
- 01:40:40 Retweeted @jpodhoretz 01:38:04 The only people winning are the people who aren't talking.
- 01:43:38 Retweeted @daveweigel 01:39:54 Why is no one hitting Trump? Because everyone but Rubio benefits if Trump holds his lead and wins, letting the race reboot a bit in SC.
- 01:54:59 Rubio: The legislation passed, but it has no support.
- 01:56:34 Are we getting Rubio/Christie round two?
- 01:59:13 Retweeted @anamariecox 01:58:49 Trump’s passionate defense of not letting people die in the street will probably hurt him. Because that is the state of the GOP today.
- 02:00:03 Retweeted @fmanjoo 01:58:42 These candidates need to take down Trump. They’re not. It’s like they don’t believe his support is real.
- 02:01:27 Im OK with not hearing what Ben Carson has to say about North Korea.
- 02:04:55 Strong defense of Eminent Domain from Trump. Good rebuttal from Jeb.
- 02:06:32 I think that is the only Bush/Trump exchange so far in any debate that Bush won. Lots of booing. Wow.
- 02:07:16 Retweeted @danielbarrick 02:06:21 Wow. Never, ever seen this. A candidate engaged in a back and forth booing match with the debate audience. #GOPDebate
- 02:07:23 Retweeted @marcambinder 02:06:20 This is Jeb's best debate so far. "How tough is it to take property from an elderly woman?" @JebBush #GOPDebate
- 02:07:30 Retweeted @MikeGrunwald 02:06:19 Trump is so good at this. Trashing the audience as a bunch of establishment donors is just genius.
- 02:09:12 Retweeted @politicoroger 02:06:45 Jeb wins a fight with Trump over eminent domain. Give him his "!" back. #GOPDebate
- 02:09:26 Retweeted @ZekeJMiller 02:06:50 Jeb just drew some blood on Trump. The 10425th time is a charm
- 02:09:35 Retweeted @SteveKornacki 02:06:31 I can't believe I'm saying it but I think Jeb just baited Trump into a bad moment
- 02:09:58 Retweeted @BuzzFeedAndrew 02:07:05 Damn Jeb, keeping his cool while Trump melts.
- 02:10:31 Retweeted @LarrySabato 02:07:12 Jeb and Donald go at it. Trump explains why debate audience is so unbalanced in its reactions to various candidates. It's seats for donors.
- 02:11:13 Retweeted @rebleber 02:07:35 Trump rightly points out that Keystone wasn't intended to serve a public purpose. It was "a private job."
- 02:12:57 Interesting watching in my timeline big divide on that Bush/Trump exchange. Lots of folks saying advantage Trump. Don’t see it this time.
- 02:15:04 Retweeted @AlexParkerDC 02:11:01 Just when Rubio emerging as the only plausible anti-Trump/Cruz candidate, he screws up and turns it back into a free-for-all.
- 02:15:50 Retweeted @Heminator 02:14:09 Trump is is jumping the shark, and Rubio is having a bad night. So NH primary looking REALLY unpredictable right now.
- 02:17:31 Retweeted @bennyjohnson 02:15:05 This is real life: https://t.co/39EompF3H1 https://t.co/B801ovAdCY
- 02:19:10 Retweeted @pbump 02:18:41 Oh, is that all? OK. https://t.co/jDqjVplW8h in reply to pbump
- 02:23:37 Retweeted @LizMair 02:21:57 Oh fuck, Rubio's now reciting this line for like the 10th time. WHAT THE HELL, MARCO?! You're better than this. Stop it!
- 02:23:57 Retweeted @pbump 02:22:01 Audience appears to boo Rubio reverting to his talking points again? in reply to pbump
- 02:28:20 Is Cruz thumping his podium? Just sounds like noise on audio only.
- 02:28:52 Retweeted @anamariecox 02:28:19 I think Cruz says “carpet bombing” but is thinking “magical missiles that only hit bad guys.” Either that, or he is moral monster.
- 02:29:13 Retweeted @ForecasterEnten 02:28:10 I mean I don't know how much of a difference this debate might have, but if NH voters are as fickle as lore plays up… Oh boy.
- 02:29:50 Retweeted @EsotericCD 02:27:47 Not just a disappointing night for Rubio. *I* personally am disappointed in him. He thinks he's "on point." He sounds like a mindless robot.
- 02:31:03 Retweeted @KatyTurNBC 02:18:57 CLARIFICATION: 75 PEOPLE are donors. Not percentage. 1000 in audience.
- 02:37:58 Retweeted @DylanByers 02:34:52 if Larry David is really savvy he waits backstage after being introduced on @SNL tonight, Ben Carson style
- 02:38:27 Retweeted @sbpaul 02:34:49 I'm not seeing a winner tonight in #GOPDebate. Lots of slippage.
- 02:39:28 Trump comes out with the bold pro-torture position. :-/
- 02:40:25 Retweeted @LisaDNews 02:39:45 U.S. law: “Torture” means an act… specifically intended to inflict severe physical or mental pain or suffering. 18 U.S. 2340. cc: @tedcruz
- 02:40:53 Retweeted @alex 02:39:44 very happy to report that both Trump or Cruz would fail a philosophy 101 class on torture
- 02:46:53 10th Amendment. How quaint!
- 02:50:53 Retweeted @SaraMurray 02:28:59 Donald Trump is leading the polls in New Hampshire, but you wouldn't guess it by this debate. Jeb's the only one taking shots at him.
- 02:51:49 Retweeted @mocowan 02:46:09 How awesome would it be for debate moderators to follow each non-answer with, "Seriously; did you not understand my question!?" #GOPDebate
- 02:53:41 Retweeted @baseballcrank 02:44:12 Cruz & Rubio are avoiding each other. Cruz, in fact, is avoiding conflict at all. Which makes sense for where he is tonight.
- 02:53:45 Retweeted @HawkinsUSA 02:45:48 They should. They may well be making a pact soon to divvy up the states and split the ticket. https://t.co/ReVqGMuK07
- 03:09:59 Retweeted @m67smith 03:09:37 "Mosques that participate in hate speech" You're on a stage with people that participate in a hate speech. #GOPDebate
- 03:21:21 Retweeted @jimantle 03:20:24 Jeb Bush making the case that his voters are alive.
- 03:30:15 Retweeted @anamariecox 03:29:50 These are not answers that will help GOP candidates in New Hampshire.
- 03:30:48 Retweeted @ajchavar 03:30:08 "Hi, room full of older men, what do you think about abortion?"
- 03:31:24 Lightning round! Oh. Football question. Whatever.
- 03:39:06 Closing statements! Yay!
- 03:39:20 Retweeted @kkondik 03:39:01 I continue to be amazed about how little Trump gets attacked.
- 03:42:06 Retweeted @ryangrim 03:40:28 Here's what I don't get: Somebody has to win the GOP nomination, right? Is it a person on this stage? Very confused
- 03:42:42 Retweeted @ForecasterEnten 03:42:33 Your reminder that Trump is a decent sized favorite heading into Tuesday right now. (He was far lower going into IA) https://t.co/0ZbGNQgJzq
- 03:44:05 .@ForecasterEnten Have you guys published odds for 2nd? That seems to be the real race in NH. in reply to ForecasterEnten
- 03:45:28 Trying to collect final thoughts on this debate and potential impact. Harder than most of the previous debates.
- 03:47:33 Retweeted @ForecasterEnten 03:47:23 @abulsme Tmmw morning, I'll have some stuff on that. in reply to abulsme
- 03:48:39 .@ForecasterEnten I can guess looking at the projected result distributions, but will be good to see the “Chance of #2” nums directly. :-) in reply to ForecasterEnten
- 03:49:39 Think Rubio’s rise to clear 2nd place in NH stalls. #2 back into toss up status. Trump took hit fr Bush, but too little too late, still #1.
- 04:00:51 Narrative had moved to Rubio 2nd, Trump/Cruz/Rubio race beyond NH. If Cruz 2nd is it just Trump/Cruz? What happens if Bush 2nd? Or Kasich?!?
- 04:02:26 Of course that assumes Trump wins NH as expected. If his voters fail to show up like IA, & someone else has last min surge… then who knows!
- 04:07:04 The whole glorious screwed up debate entrance -> Ben Carson Causes Traffic Jam Off-Stage At ABC Debate (tpmtv) https://t.co/Bva94K2Tsu
- 04:11:48 Retweeted @GoldyHA 03:59:04 Fun watching it dawn on @ABC talking heads that states other than Iowa & NH might help select GOP nominee.
- 04:12:52 Retweeted @barbarasprunt 03:47:00 Final talk time tally #GOPDebate @nprpolitics
Rubio: 18:14
Cruz: 17:34
Trump: 15:32
Christie: 12:53
Bush: 12:30
Kasich: 10:33
Carson: 8:46 - 04:15:54 And the Rubio repeat bit people were complaining about -> Rubio On Repeat (Correct the Record) https://t.co/8VqbxCU89Z
- 05:37:26 Just got a bloody lip from Alex dropping an X-Box controller on my face. (Not on purpose.). Ouch ouch ouch!!
- 05:48:23 Retweeted @HeerJeet 05:35:58 Rubio got trapped by GOP cognitive dissonance on Obama: Obama is both an incompetent naif & socialist mastermind changing America.
- 09:32:57 Reading – Making Sense of the Last NH Debate (@joshtpm) https://t.co/4dN3ithlxh
- 09:48:33 Just thinking my delegate hypothetical: https://t.co/WFuFqfAoDj + SC is winner take all (sorta) = possible huge Trump del lead by Feb 20
- 09:53:19 If est from hypo close + Trump wins state & all SC CDs, del total aft SC would be something like: Trump 71, Cruz 10, Rubio 9, Others 10. in reply to abulsme
- 09:55:29 Now, that assumes current polling holds both in NH & SC, which is unlikely, but… shows how 30% support can still lead to del majority. in reply to abulsme
- 18:58:45 New polls in NH added today. Details at https://t.co/EZdmGlTAg8 and @ElecCollPolls. One change of note, so blog post later.
