Cokie Roberts: Trump Was ‘Masterful’; ‘He Dominated the Night’

BRZEZINSKI: “The mechanics of his producing of the entire night were masterful, you like it or not.”
SCARBOROUGH: “Interestingly enough, I think Rubio and Cruz — Rubio on the rise in a lot of polls — I thought they had their worst nights last night. I don’t think it’s a close call on either one of them. It didn’t matter in the after debate because every single Frank Luntz focus group since 1924 has had Marco Rubio withing, but Cokie Roberts, what’s your take away?”
ROBERTS: “I think the winner of the debate itself was Megyn Kelly. She was very forceful and very good and didn’t let all of the stuff around her get in her head. But Donald Trump won the night. I don’t think there’s any question about that. And the real question is whether he can get all of the people who are supporting him to the caucuses on Monday night because most of his voters — many of his voters say they’ve never been to a caucus and, you know, everybody who’s been in Iowa knows that that’s not the easiest thing on Earth to do, to get people there. But he’s masterful, as Mika said. He dominated the night.”
