What They Are Saying About Jeb Bush at the ABC New Hampshire Debate

JEB BUSH WON TONIGHT'S DEBATE

Miami, FL –  Jeb won tonight’s debate. Not only was he the only candidate (yet again) to stand up to Donald Trump, he also clearly articulated his accomplishments as governor of Florida, the detailed policies he has put forward and his conservative record that make him the best candidate to defeat Hillary Clinton. Ahead of the primary on Tuesday, Jeb is the clear winner and momentum is on his side.

Jeb and Christie had great nights. Trump pretty good. Cruz had a very bad start. Rubio terrible, could be worse with viral vid. Carson a dud
