a lot of answers on substance that were - john kassig gave solid answers when asked about the economy, stimulus, the voters, debate watchers were not listening to that. another thing that was interesting. these candidates are running against president obama, hillary clinton, but when you look at the polls on the democratic side. they should spend a little time mentioning bernie sanders. they did a little bit, they are going after hillary clinton. iowa and new hampshire. both are close. >> you talk how they weren't listening to the substance that kassig was talking. it seems like that audience was more involved than audiences in past debates. they were more so than other debates, when no one knew what they'd get. i think they were very involved just now they want rand coming up. he was devoted to the under-card. that probably made him the win are of the under-card debate. they were very emotional. they were booing. it was not as trump friendly as a lot of people thought. cory - we talked to him earlier, the head of the trump campaign, he said they wanted more tickets, they didn't get e
