Yep, next election they'll start filming candidates through the primaries and it all gets watched via Hunger Games tv.

To sum up this debate, I feel sorry for the US citizens...

I think as far as format goes, the debate is horrible. I saw an interview with Brian Steltzer, CNN's media analyst who was stating that the designated format was a side by side screen to encourage maximum confrontation between the candidates.
Unfortunately it has simply showcased a lot of grand-standing and attention whoring.
Plus, just like the Fox debate, it was a sandbag job on Trump from the very start. After that, the moderator, Jake Tapper, seemed to lose control - the candidates are having a free for all.
And the audience is nothing but GOP establishment. How will that play in an election cycle that is being driven by perceived political outsiders, like Trump, Carson and Fiorina?
It's all pretty wild.

Haha , did anyone hear Rubio "We can't solve this with intellect".
He just needs to be kicked out and never be let back in.

He speaks like a typical lawyer, and panders to the camera. Nope, nope, nope, don't like him.

I would kick out walker , rubio, cruz, santorum,. Scratch that to make the list easier I will list the only ones i think are even worth giving some time to.:
only carson, paul, trump and Carly Fiorina should remain for the next debates IMO.
So far I like Carson because the fair tax and he actually appears to be a logical thinker and not just regurgitating spoon fed sound bites to responses.
Trump because the entertainment factor.
However, the most shocking thing in this whole debate was a commercial about another Steve Jobs movie!!!!!!!!!!! WTF
