Yes, it was more show biz than substance. CNN wanted the the Candidates to engage each ther in the old "your mom wears combat boots" genere, but Carly was one that did it with class.
In Carly, the Republicans have a smart, attractive, successful woman who is not afraid to call out the Democrats for being exactly what they are, Demagoguing Socialist who pander and promise, but don't have a clue how to govern, outside of taking what one group has earned and giving it to someone who hasn't. All for the vote.
There is still a long way to go, but when you compare Carly to what the Dems have to offer, (a tired old lying bitch of a crone and two old white guys), America just might make her our first Woman President.
I damned sure can't see her apologizing to Foriegn Leaders for America's greatness. In her, I see the likes of Margret Thatcher.
But, as I said. it's a long way to go. The Democrats still have that base of moochers and takers who do represent a big chunk of the voting age public that she will have to overcome. Or for that fact, any Republican will have to overcome.
No small feat when the other Party simply says, "vote for us. We will take from them and give it to you".
