Bush got trimmed. Not a good sign when your post debate campaign spin is, "Jeb is a doer not a debater." Staying on message, the candidate explained, “Look, there are two types of politicians. There the talkers and there the doers. I wish I could talk as well as some of the people on the stage, the big personalities on the stage, but I’m a doer.” The only good news is they replaced the stupid exclamation point. The signage is now "Jeb?"
As to the new front runner, Doctor please heal thyself. Ben proclaimed that he has changed many of his positions now that he has actually studied some of the issues. If elected, he would be the first president to leave office for a book tour.
Substance aside, Rubio, Cruz, and to a lesser extent, Christie and Fiorina, had a good night. But oh, that pesky substance, Fiorina wears her 4 Pinocchio rating with pride. Even if Obama personally handed out pink slips, he could not achieve her mind numbing claim that 93% of the jobs lost were by women.
She, and the rest of the field danced the same old soft shoe. While in the spot light they glibly glided through the downbeat news of income inequality and wage stagnation. But the incongruous two step solution was lowering taxes on the wealthy and reducing regulatory protection for workers and consumers.
