Republican debate runs off the rails and turns into all-out war as Trump bashes John Kasich, Jeb hits his protege Marco Rubio, and EVERYONE hammers CNBC's moderators for losing control
CNBC hosts progressively lost control of the event
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz turned openly hostile, accusing them all of being Democrats intent on damaging the GOP field
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie soon piled on the network
Donald Trump wrapped up his night by claiming he had strong-armed them into shortening the debate 'so we can get the hell out of here'
'CNBC should be ashamed of how this debate was handled,' Republican Party chairman Reince Priebus said.
Claims of media bias became a major theme of the night, with Cruz letting loose the night's first scathing barrage against moderators Carl Quintanilla, Becky Quick and John Harwood.

There will always be a left and a right no matter what the parties call themselves. What the real concern is the divide between them. We as American's have given up all semblance of unity in politics, and have given into the divisiveness. The Party's are set to serve the party's and not the people, and the people have lost control over their Government. In many ways I wish both of the Party's would go away.

Of course, there will be. There may be some shifts in policy, but the GOP will still be here for quite a while yet. The next POTUS will likely be a Republican.
As for the GOP debate, as soon as the debate stated with John Harwood asking if Donald Trump Donald was running, "a comic-book version of a presidential campaign", it was obvious that the CNBC moderators were only there to insult, and bait the candidates. The moderators tried, rather unsuccessfully, to turn the candidates to ONLY attack each other, until Ted Cruz called them on their disgusting behavior. It could have been a great debate, but it turned out to be mostly garbage thanks to the CNBC moderators.

Perhaps the moderators should have viewed this as a debate between candidates rather than interviews between them and the candidates.
A true, unbiased moderator would say: "Issue 1: Federal Budget. Mr. Trump?" etc and move on down the line
