Never call him that! John Bolton, not John Snow, never Snow, never, you have to remember his name, or he will hurt you.

That's because everyone had scripted answers, as everyone does in debates. There's a measure of ad lib but the key points and phrases are always going to be the same.
That is true, but the other guys on that stage managed to make their responses look and sound not completely lifeless and rehearsed. Fiorina on the other hand always sounded like she's reciting in her delivery. The fact that what she said was often too overwrought too come off as spontaneous (e.g. the Lady Liberty/Lady Justice thing) didn't help in that regard.

More astounding is the fact that neither of the two (TWO!) doctors on stage properly corrected him, though Carson did half-heartedly try.
The funny thing about Carson's response was how he started out taking a seemingly strong stance (there's no evidence for a correlation between vaccines and autism), then got distracted by Trump's "smaller doses over a longer period" thing and couldn't get back to his initial point. Or didn't want to; maybe he realized he might anger some part of his base if he did.

"Stiff" isn't the right word to describe Jeb, though. Stiff implies a certain hardness and resistance which aren't qualities I'd ascribe to him. I'd rather call him soft of floppy.

Quite a list.
Putting Trump behind those two seems like they're trying to get his attention. People watch what Trump does and lap it up. There's money in doing that. Smart move by @timemagazine, but not giving those dummies what they want.

Really not buying that it was the ground game that hurt Trump, at least not that alone. 120k caucusgoers in 2012 and 180k caucusgoers in 2016 tells a pretty powerful story of voter enthusiasm. Trump got about 45,000 votes to Cruz' 51,000. Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum both got ~30k four years ago, and Huckabee won a "big" victory with 41k voters eight years ago. Note that Huck's 41k voters in 2008 meant 34% of the vote and Trump's 45k voters this year were only 24% of the vote.

Trump's people showed up. Cruz's people just turned out better. Ted Cruz really pulled this off in a dramatic way.

Why did Cruz's people turn out better? Because of his ground game.
