i think the big loser last night was scott. from the start, people have been eyeing him as the ideal candidate to build a big tent candidacy, inoffensive to all corners of republicandom. but he was just a complete dud last night, the least juicy of a juiceless bunch. if you're a republican desperate for someone to take the candidacy from trump, there's no way you could have watched last night and decided, well we've gotta move on from desantis, just doesn't have the juice. let's start moving some eggs into scott's basket.
haley was the one who showed the most spark, but she doesn't really hit the inoffensive to everyone spot.
