63% : Her performance, the most memorable of her entire career, was so devastating that even Ron DeSantis, the paragon of political aphasia, in the most cogent remark of his campaign, indeed his life, commented: "Yikes."
44% : "Haley's whole possibility of success in her contest with Trump depends upon winning New Hampshire, and within that open primary, unlike the closed primaries that follow it, she is relying on drawing independent voters.
40% : Trump has now dispensed with the code words and symbols of the southern strategy.
33% : Even if she had not been stunned and was instead fluent, she could not bridge the gap in the party of Trump with 'lost cause lite'.
32% : Then Trump came down the escalator.
