Gilmore was funny Thursday. You don't get to complain about Carly Fiorina having two straight questions when you've skipped so many debates that no one knows if you're even running anymore.

I never posted my review of the last debate. Nothing terribly exciting happened, so I'll be very brief:

Winners: Bush, Cruz, Christie. Bush is getting pretty good at this, though it's probably too late. Cruz and Christie were solid on message. Cruz is tacking hard to the right, which helps now, but will hurt later. Christie seems unable to gain ground on Rubio, which is all he should care about right now.

OK: Rubio, Paul. Rubio stopped the bleeding from his last performance. Paul had some good moments, but some equally bad moments.

Losers: Carson, Kasich, Trump. Carson was odd. Kasich is running for veep, badly. Trump made a huge mistake by not being there.

Undercard: No one moved the needle at all. Fiorina is still trying, but every answer is the same with her.
