SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT TONIGHT’S REPUBLICAN DEBATE

BarkGrowlBite | March 10, 2016

Here are my thoughts about tonight’s Republican debate.

CNN deserves kudos for managing the debate so much better than any of the previous debacles.

It was gratifying to see that none of the four candidates sniped at each other with degrading personal attacks.

Donald Trump answered questions by talking in generalities, that is if he even answered the questions.

Gov. Kasich, as usual, kept emphasizing his accomplishments in Congress and as Governor of Ohio.

Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz were the most specific when answering questions on various policies.

As someone with a special interest in Israel, I especially liked Rubio’s take on negotiations between the Israelis and the Palestinians. While Trump said he wants to bring about a deal with the two adversaries, Rubio made it crystal clear that Israel cannot negotiate with the Palestinians because all they really want is to destroy the Jewish state.

Rubio was exactly right, while Trump seems to be clueless concerning the intent of the Palestinians to obliterate Israel.

In my opinion, Rubio and Cruz were the real winners tonight by a large margin, Trump didn’t hurt himself and Kasich will probably win Ohio.
