1st answer from Cruz is at 8:39

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 12:39:50 AM
Takeaway on Putin: Trump would sit down and try to work out deals. Fiorina would emphatically not. Rubio would toughen US posture on Syria

Bush appears more confident and sharper than the last debate. And willing to mix it up with The Donald. #GOPDebate
