For next 11-candidate debate, let's stop with jokes about whether people are still on stage and just accept that format flawed

Donald Trump on some vaccines: “It looks like it’s for a horse, not for a child.”

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 2:48:08 AM
Ben Carson on Donald Trump: “He’s an ok doctor.”

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 2:48:55 AM
Ben Carson just schooled @realDonaldTrump on vaccines not causing autism #CNNDebate

by Tracy Jan via twitter 9/17/2015 2:49:05 AM
He's an ok doctor does not equal "likeable enough"

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 2:49:05 AM
That @realDonaldTrump answer on vaccines would doom so many other candidates #CNNDebate

by Shira T. Center via twitter 9/17/2015 2:49:46 AM
Even in a 3 hour debate how is this a topic for the next leader of the free world?

Break? Or you could call it a night.

Thanks @tedcruz it should be the $20

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 2:55:26 AM
1. Ivanka Trump 2. Rosa Parks

by Jim O'Sullivan via twitter 9/17/2015 2:56:21 AM
Carly!

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 2:56:39 AM
Carly Fiorina: Wouldn’t change the $10 or $20 . “It’s just a gesture."

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 2:56:42 AM
Stop with the wife, mother, daughter nominations for the female face of the $10 bill.

by Tracy Jan via twitter 9/17/2015 2:57:06 AM
Oh that Adams family

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 2:57:08 AM
Both Jeb Bush and John Kasich: “It’s probably illegal, but…"

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 2:57:19 AM
Really? Secret Service code name?

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 2:57:42 AM
.@CarlyFiorina should have said: THAT FACE. #CNNDebate

by Tracy Jan via twitter 9/17/2015 2:58:06 AM
Jeb’s code name: “Very high energy, Donald.”

Trump’s: “Humble."

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 2:58:25 AM
Next question for candidates: What would your Secret Service code name be?

Christina Prignano 9/17/2015 2:58:38 AM
I doubt any of these candidates would choose "Rainbow" as their Secret Service code name. #CNNDebate

by Tracy Jan via twitter 9/17/2015 2:59:04 AM
Candidates missing chance for American Gladiator demo. "Nitro" a very good answer. Or "Laser"

We are in hour 4 people. #CNNDebate

by James Pindell via twitter 9/17/2015 3:01:07 AM
So good. Watch this. Several times. Bush really slams down the low five. With a lot of energy. twitter.com/MEPFuller/stat…

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 3:01:42 AM
So Donald Trump attempted high fives with the man to his right (Ben Carson) and his left (Jeb Bush). Both a bit awkwardly memorable.

by Matt Viser via twitter 9/17/2015 3:03:39 AM
.@Carolynyjohnson , how about third wife or mistress as $10 face nominees?

Trump: "we'll have more of everything. We were discussing disease..."

The New York Times fact-checked some of the assertions made in tonight's debate by Fiorina, Bush, Carson, Trump: Read more.
