"Benghazi!"

Didn't watch the whole debate last night so I can't confirm this from personal knowledge. Last night's debate was mostly about Islamic terrorism and national security. I heard that none of the GOP candidates even uttered the word "Benghazi". Is that true? Anyone here watch all of it and remember any candidate mentioning Benghazi? If it is true,don't you think that's pretty significant?
 
"Benghazi" is a rallying cry when the topic is Hillary. It does not pertain to ISIS, Syrian refugees, San Bernardino, the Paris Attacks . . .

Negative and YOU will get to hear the word 'Benghazi' much in 2015 when the pant suit is officially the NOM

During the 45 minutes or so that I watched the debate,Hillary was quite often the topic.

I have my doubts about that. If it's that big a winner,some of the candidates would've got it in somehow last night.

How many more debates will there be? And these people think they're supposed to cover EVERY topic in every debate??? Lol!

Again,the topic of the debate last night was Islamic terrorism,foreign policy and national security. If any of the candidates thought they could score some points with "Benghazi" that would've been on-topic last night. Wouldn't you agree with that?

It certainly should be in play, but just a mention among discussion overall foreign policy issues.

Just speaking strategically, if I were the GOP, I'd act is if I forgot it until an actual presidential debate, and then spring it on her, along with all of the unexplained issues that went along with it.

Because, it's a win-win. Even if everything she claims is true, that it was a Youtube video that she didn't know about (all things disproven in her own emails), it proves her incompetance and ability to assess situations.

Hilary is an easy target on a debate stage. And from what I can tell, Cruz would be best to pick her apart, as he seems to be the best debater out of all candidates, both parties. I'm not saying he's the best candidate, but he knows how to go for the jugular, and that's what the American people want.. flat-cold truth.

I disagree with ya there. She did pretty damn well in a room with how many Repubs,broadcast live and under oath for how many hours? I think that's why none of 'em mentioned Benghazi in a 3 hour debate about Islamic terrorism,foreign policy and national security.

Not true, one of the candidates was listing failures of the current administration and mentioned Benghazi.

Christy also really went out of his way to name Obama and Hillary together everytime they spoke as if they were President and Vice President. It was calculated but very mean if you ask me.

there's no upside to campaigning against "Benghazi" during the GOP debates. that's preaching to the choir - GOP voters.

when its the general election, you can count on hearing endlessly about:

- the Clinton foundation
- deleted emails
- Benghazi
- "dead broke"
- Hillary's belief in a national healthcare service
- Hillary's support of the iran treaty

She was exposed, the media just didn't want to report it. Her emails were exposed, the unexplained questions were there.

Yes, she sat in the room. What would have been a victory for the Republicans there... beating her up?

It's a rallying cry with the GOP base. A number of the candidates need to pull in more support from the base. It's a daily topic on the talk radio right and those folks vote.

With the common discourse in Washington these days, I'm not sure how you could possible single out that point and call it "very mean".

Clinton and Obama are largely joined at the hip. McCain was connected to Bush constantly. It's fair play in politics and rhetoric.
