Mike Barnicle on the winners and losers of last night’s Republican presidential debate

On MSNBC, Mike Barnicle and the Morning Joe panel evaluate the winners and losers in the aftermath of last night’s Republican presidential debate on CNN. “It was a three-hour debate with 11 people on the stage and almost all of them, including Donald Trump and Jeb Bush, faded slowly into the background—with the exception of Carly Fiorina, because of her specificity and strength in delivering,” says Mike of the candidates. “Governor Chris Christie had a good night. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) was very specific and very strong on foreign policy. What was Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) doing there? And, oh yeah, Ben Carson was there—I forgot,” continues Mike.
