The moderation of the CNBC Republican presidential debate was an absolute disaster.
Who picked these clowns to moderate what was supposed to be a fair and respectful debate?Because of the tasteless antics by CNBC’s debate moderators, all of the Republican presidential candidates were given the golden opportunity to smack down the liberally-biased mainstream media.
#CNBCGOPDebate moderators are worse than Fox moderators,only they are wearing big read shoes and matching noses

Between Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, and Ben Carson, the skewering of the national media took center-stage, and was the dominate takeaway from the debate. The other big loser of the CNBC debate was Jeb Bush. Bush tried and failed to effectively attack Rubio, suggesting that he resign from the Senate, but at the end of the debate, the American public was asking that Bush drop out of the race.
,@marcorubio just delivered a roundhouse kick to @JebBush ‘s head, following it with a kick to the groin #CNBCGOPDebate

Ohio Governor John Kasich made some good points, but it was obvious that he couldn’t recover from Donald Trump’s Lehman Brothers body-blow.
.@realDonaldTrump scores first body-blow of the night. John Kasich is trying to get his breathe back @cnbcgopdebate

It was clear to everyone watching the debate that Senator Marco Rubio was the clear winner, followed closely by Senator Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, and Ben Carson. Carson also showed that it is ok to be wrong some times.
Hold the presses! @RealBenCarson unlike all politicians, just admitted he made a mistake #CNBCGOPDebate — Javier Manjarres (@THESHARKTANK1) October 29, 2015
Cruz big moment was when he took on the CNBC moderators over the ludicrous and insulting questions they were asking of the candidates.
Carson was also able to take on the media, but showed failed to impress with his “very low energy” debate skills. Some should have given him a Red Bull energy drink, or even one of those coffee-flavored ones named “Cafecito.”
I predict that Trump and Carson will stay at the top, while Cruz and Rubio will inch up in the post-debate polls.Bush will drop, and should call it quits, considering that no one sees him staying in the race if he begins to poll in the low single digits.
Huckabee, Fiorina, and Paul all did well, but the momentum is clearly behind Rubio, Cruz, Trump, and Carson.
