Fox News Focus Group: Cruz Overwhelming Debate Winner

(Fox News)

A Fox News focus group of 26 South Carolina Republicans were near unanimous in their view that Texas Sen. Ted Cruz won Thursday's GOP presidential debate on Fox Business Network.

They were most impressed over the exchange between Cruz and Donald Trump over Cruz's "birthright citizenship" issue. Trump says Cruz may not be qualified to serve because he was born in Canada, though Cruz says it is a "non-issue" because his mother is a citizen.

Cruz "handled" Trump on the issue one woman told pollster Frank Luntz. "It was really evident that he was capable of taking the hit and handling it and turning Donald around on himself."

Another man described Cruz as "eloquent" and "level-headed."

When asked participants to raise their hands if they thought Cruz won the exchange every single hand was raised.

Cruz also scored well when he talked about Iran detaining 10 American sailors earlier this week.

As president, Cruz said, any nation who captures U.S. service members "will feel the full force and fury of the United States of America."

Does anyone still believe anything coming out of a "Fox Focus Group" after they lied their ass off after the first debate?? Luntz was part of the Fox News setup when the whole network and Megyn Kelly did their best to defame Trump and it failed and backfired on them including the false conclusions of their rigged "focus group"

How can Luntz crew differ sooo much from EVERY online poll? I smell fish

Regardless of ones opinion on the focus group, I thought Cruz and Trump both gave a good account of themselves.

What Im worried about is the growing evidence that the establishment networks are reluctantly moving behind Cruz. While Cruz was not their first choice there appears to be something about him they find "workable" for their plans.

I'm not sure that it is so much them moving behind Cruz as I think it is them taking every opportunity to take shots at Trump. The media has taken plenty of shots at Cruz too.
