Yeah, hardly anyone said that Newt came out of this looking good. Not so much that he "lost", but it was clear he didn't perform as well as the previous debates.
Of course, this is part of the reasons why I said that Newt's overrated as fuck when it comes to his reputation as a great debater. Without hearing the cheering and hollering of a bloodthirsty audience, Newt himself was Newt-ered.
