    Fox has been pumping Rubio this morning mostly... but Rand has gotten some good mentions.

    Maybe mending fences with one of the two candidates who boycotted them? FOX has lost some perceived power due to their standing up to them.

    Rand won the debate. They don't like him much, but they can't argue with his resounding success last night.

    Rand earned it. The writing is on the wall for his success in Iowa after last night, and the recent rise in some polls. It's a real surge. They gotta cover him.

    It's forced media.

    Oh, and Rand is awesome.

    This is true, but considering fox news normally is not allowed to mention his name Rand is doing pretty good.

    Lots of Cruz talk, but mostly centered around the back and forth on immigration between him and Rubio. Cruz is looking bad, imho.

    I feel like this is part of the "take away support from Cruz so that Rubio wins" because they don't have to acknowledge anything, but it is great indeed.

    Yep they even mentioned the headline in the biggest newspaper in Iowa is saying Cruz looked bad. I'm thinking Cruz may have surged prematurely lol.

    The Juan guy and blond chick just said Rand did really well saying he looked much more comfortable/relaxed than he's ever looked and was very knowledgeable. I don't know if three more days will be enough for Rand to surge to the top but with Ron on his way it will be very very close.

    I agree but with so many in the race I think it will only serve to dilute the vote all the much more giving Rand an even better shot at pulling off an upset so long as he and Ron can turn out the vote.

    Rand was firing on all cylinders. He looked very Presidential. Wardrobe and hair were perfect. He had concise points to make, and made them well. This is the guy we want as our President.

    For reals?? Maybe they just wanna hurt Cruz by splitting some of his support? Maybe they have no clue what to do anymore.

    Rand single-handedly wiped out Trumps competition for him.

    So Rand becomes the antitrump. Good news. Trump has a 38% ceiling. If Rand is the antitrump that gives him a 62% ceiling.

    Black Swan event - Rand is excluded from FBN debate.

    Actually, shouldn't it be Trump's floor that defines the anti-Trump ceiling?

    Yep. Remember, these folks live by the polls. They not only use them to tell us who we should vote for, they actually believe the polls are 100% accurate. It's their business model, after all. They use polls to sell advertising.

    So, yes. They want to make Rubio out to be the anti-Trump and they believe Rand can cut into Cruz's numbers in Iowa. Our only hope is to once and for all, totally discredit their polling by having Rand in the top 2.

    They are in a full-court press to retain the establishment. Don't be fooled by their magnanimity. They're just playing their game.

    Normally, yes, but Trump is an unusual case. His people would still love him if he clubbed baby seals in broad daylight on 5th Avenue. A Trumpaloompa is basically Trumpaloompa forever.

    Do polls reflect this? 2008 and 2012 prove that winning debates in the technical/debate club sort of way doesn't necessarily translate to winning from audience POV.

    I was thinking the same thing. The only thing I was wondering about was why they bothered cornerning Rubio with the video instead of avoiding it? To seem like they arent showing favoritism?
