"Strategerally", the debate is between Christie and Rubio

Both can get a real boost with a good showing in the NH primary. Christie is facing the real prospect of getting his mop and going back to NJ if he doesn't climb to at least the #4 spot.

Meanwhile, Little Marco has to top Cruz in order to move ahead with some success to crow about. By the way, I hope his voice drops when he reaches puberty.

The net result is they are at each other, with, so far, Christie being the aggressor.

For tonight's cage match, who do you score higher? High Heel Boy or Mop Man?

I can't see how anybody can come out of this with a smile.

by voters so he does not have momentum or positive press coverage.

He's a treacherous and shallow personality, IMO.

While Christie is treacherous but layers deep in his own self-regard. Bad combination in both their cases.

"Mop Man" !! LOL.

The more uncertainty and imbalance in the GOP primary field, the greater the chance of implosions and temper-tantrums in Cleveland this summer. A brokered and chaotic convention would be splendid.

Even if he rises, bridgegate and his temper have ruined him for the Presidency.

Be concerned about Rubio, he is a b'ser.

that Christie is done. The Bridge (and related) scandals were devastating, even if Christie himself didn't think so.

Rubio seems better-positioned than he has been, but his campaign feels stalled at the same time. Something weird is going on with that guy.

Though on the stump, he knows how to give out the proper talking points.
