7:03 am
welcome back to "cbs this morning." the third republican preside presidential debate was last night. marco rubio and carly fiorina did the most talking of the candidates, as they spent time complaining about less time to answer questions. >> major garrett is at the university of colorado, boulder. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the rnc chairman reince priebus said the network should be ashamed. more on that in a minute. in the main, the old saying applies: there was more heat than light. >> i have a question. >> reporter: it was hard to
7:04 am
focus through the noise. but some moments in this debate broke through. >> you're not interested in an answer. >> senator paul. >> reporter: like this exchange between former political allies jeb bush and marco rubio over votes that rubio has missed while campaigning. >> the senate is like a french workweek, you get three days before you have to show up? >> reporter: rubio replied that bush was a hypocrite. >> the only reason you're doing it now is we're running for the same position, and someone has convinced you attacking me is going to help you. >> reporter: front runners trump and carson took fire from john kasich. >> you don't just make promises like this. why don't we give a chicken in every pot while we're coming up with these fantasy tax schemes? >> he was such a nice guy. he was never going to attack. then his poll numbers tanked.
7:05 am
that's why he's on the end. >> reporter: former hewlett-packard ceo carly fiorina had to defend her tumultuous tenure. >> yes, i was fired. there were politics in the boardroom as well. >> reporter: ted cruz detected a pattern in the debate questions. >> this is not a cage match. you look at the questions, donald trump, are you a comic book villain, ben carson, can you do math, john kasich, will you insult two people over here. the questions being asked shouldn't be trying to get people to tear into each other. >> reporter: when the issue of government regulation of fantasy football came up, chris christie called time out. >> we have al qaeda attacking us. and we're talking about fantasy football? >> reporter: after the debate, carson joined republicans in calling the media biased. >> in terms of the kind of
7:06 am
softball the democrats get and republicans get. i don't mind tough questions. but it just shows there's a such a big difference. >> reporter: the consensus, marco rubio and ted cruz did well, and jeb bush struggled. donald trump told us he was certain he won the debate. as for the way it conducted the process, cnbc said this in a statement, quote: people who want to be president of the united states should be able to answer tough questions. >> thanks, major. florida senator marco rubio is with us from colorado. senator, good morning. >> good morning. >> what do you think you achieved last night? some are saying this may have been a moment for you. >> well, you've covered this long enough to know, it's one debate in pane. we have another one in 12 to 14 days. every one of these is an opportunity to introduce ourselves to people who know very little about why we're running for president. >> were you surprised that jeb bush attacked your attendance in
7:07 am
the senate? one of your local newspapers addressed it. is it a fair question? >> look, my campaign is not about attacking anyone else. my campaign is about the future of america. it isn't going to change my feelings toward jeb or anyone else in this rain. i'm not running against them. i'm running for president. >> but did you make that attack personal against jeb bush? he was once your mentor. >> again, i have a great regard for him. i said that last night from the debate stage. i think every candidate should run on who they are and what they stand for. and let the republican voters across this country know who the nominee should be. if there are policy differences, we should discuss them. but i've never personally attacked anybody in this race. >> well, you called hillary clinton a liar, senator. you called hillary clinton a liar. >> well, no, i said hillary clinton lied about benghazi. there's no doubt about that, charlie.
7:08 am
there were e-mails when she was talking to her family and telling them there was an attack on that consulate due to al qaeda elements, then she was going around the country talking to the families of the victims and the american people and saying, no -- >> senator, you know that the cia was changing its own assessment of what happened there during that time zone. >> that's not accurate. it was clear from the very early moments after that attack that it was not a spontaneous uprising. it was a planned attack, well-orchestrated by people who brought armaments to that attack that you would never see as part of a spontaneous uprising. what was clear is that she knew it was a terrorist attack, as she shared by e-mail with various people. >> if you're calling her a liar by perpetuating a lie, then why do you think she did that? what was her motive? >> it's very clear why, because they were in the middle of a 2012 election, in which she and
7:09 am
president obama had claimed al qaeda was on the run. >> you're saying hillary clinton lied because she wanted to help barack obama in his reelection campaign? that's a serious charge. >> yes. well, it's the truth. it's not only why she did it. it's why everyone in the administration did it. the narrative of their campaign at the time, charlie, was that al qaeda was on the run and had been defeated. that was their narrative. this countered that narrative. they didn't want that out there. that's why they didn't tell the truth about what happened. the families of those victims deserve better. >> but are you denying that the cia was sending different information as they assessed it and providing different information to the leaders of our government and that was -- >> without violating any -- i don't want to violate anything confidential. it was clear from the earliest months after that attack that everyone on the ground and everyone closest to that attack knew almost instantly that this
7:10 am
was an organized effort, not part of a spontaneous uprising. and there was never any evidence that it was because of a video produced by some guy in california. for them to further that narrative and continue to do so well after it had become clear that wasn't the case was unacceptable. the american people deserve better. the families of those victims in benghazi deserve better. >> senator, i want to get back to the debates before you go. it seemed the candidates were debating the moderators rather than each other. what's your assessment of the debate last night? >> you know, i was disappointed. i thought cnbc was a station where they go into deep conversations on a daily basis about economics. i thought it was going to be about what about this trade deal, about the economy. instead of taking up those questions and pressing the candidates on specifics, we had some of other questions you had
7:11 am
asked. i thought it was a wasted opportunity. quite frankly, i thought it was unfair not just to the candidates but to the american people. these are issues i spend a lot of time on and take very seriously, i know the other candidates do too. we wasted an opportunity last night to do that, because you have to respond to questions about ben carson and some website or whether donald trump has moral authority. a wasted opportunity in what i thought was the perfect opportunity to go into deal about pressing economic issues facing america. >> thank you, senator rubio. >> thanks. "face the nation" moderator john dickerson is with us. you wrote a column, you said marco rubio won. >> yeah, i think he did. a candidate wants to grab a moment when they're on the rise. he is clearly on the rise. a lot of people are talking about him as the head of that
7:12 am
alternative lane. there are two lanes, one is trump-carson, the other is the rest of the candidates. he grabbed his moment. for him it was really that exchange with jeb bush, not only a moment where he bested a competitor, but for a young senator who has in executive experience, it was a moment for voters where he showed he had some strength. that's really good for a candidate. >> they say jeb bush needed a good night last night and they say this morning she didn't h-- he didn't have it. >> it's going to be tough for him. there were calls for him to step it up from those funders. those calls are going to continue. >> marco rubio is now leading the establishment, as the establishment candidate? >> yes, although he would hate that term, because what rubio has and what they've always said about him is he can take some from the tea party and some from the establishment, that he works in both groups. in the sense that he is a politician, so he's outside of the non-politician group, he's
7:13 am
poised to do best in that category. >> is there any difference between carson and trump in terms of where that race between the two of them is? >> i think it's still neck and neck between the two of them. one thing that surprised me last night is that trump stayed away from him. >> everyone was predicting trump was going to attack him. >> yes, everyone including me yesterday. i hope no one remembers. because that was his m.o. and had done it beforehand, he had gone after carson just two days before, and he was clearly not in that mode last night. >> were you taking notes on how not to run a debate? you're doing the next presidential debate. a lot of people were saying it was out of control last night. >> i wouldn't be very smart to have any opinion on that question, gayle. a bull's eye on my head. >> was it a teachable moment? >> i take my teachable moments from this table, charlie. i get my lessons from you. >> as mentioned, john will be the moderator at next month's

two f-16 fighter jets scrambled from new jersey to trail the runaway blimp. police and military officials tracked it for miles, meeting it on this country road. but they weren't the only ones. >> just before we got here we found out it had crashed here. >> reporter: now it's the military's job to find out how this tether, which is over an inch thick and designed to withstand over 100 miles per hour hurricane-force winds, could fail. we visited the blimp at its base earlier this year. we asked if the tether could break. so there's no worry that it could be sliced by drones or birds or something like that? >> no, there is absolutely no concern. i mean, we really do not worry about the tether. there's a one in a million chance of that tether breaking. >> reporter: in the woods behind me a military recovery team is trying to figure out how to get that blimp out of here. they'll probably have to cut

good morning to our viewers in the west, this is thursday, october 29, 2015, welcome back to cbs this morning. more real news ahead including strong reaction to last night's republican debate. see how one group of voters responded moment by moment. by first here's a look at today's eye opener at 8:00. >> even in new jersey what you're doing is called rude. >> cnbc said people who want to be president of the united states should be able to answer tough questions. >> you're saying senator that hillary clinton lied because she wanted to be elected.
8:01 am
>> the majority of the votes cast is duly elected as speaker of the house. >> there's a one in a million chance of that type of break. >> just a short distance away a military recovery team is trying to figure out how to get that blimp out of here. >> the problem with these guidelines is that they're confusing to the very women that should benefit. >> he's superlow energy. >> yes, exhibiting tremendous energy is the number one requirement for being president. who can forget abraham lincoln'sitlincoln lincoln'silincoln' lincoln'sity getty's berg workout tape. >> the republican presidential candidates met last night for
8:02 am
the third time. they spent parent of the night moderating each other. the republican national chairman says there were too many gotcha questions. >> cnbc responded with a statement quote, people who want to be president of the united states should be able to answer tough questions. >> so when the sun sentinel says rubio should resign not rip us off, when they say floridians sent you to washington do a job and when you act like you hate your job, is that ---i don't recall the sun sentinel endorsed him. in 2008 barack obama missed 60% or 70% of the votes. so this is just another example of the distance that exists between the main stream media.
8:03 am
>> you know, the few questions i got, the last one i need is to give him more time. i love donald trump. he is a good man. i'm wearing a trump tie tonight, get over that one. >> such a nasty question. >> you've been very is critical of mark zuckerberg with facebook who wanted to increase. >> i am all in favor of keeping these talented people here so they can go to work in silicon valley. i'm not at all critical kl of him. >> where did i read this and come up with this? >> i don't know, you people write this stuff. >> everybody said it was going to be three hours and in about two minutes i renegotiated it down to two hours so we can get the hell out of here. >> the debate was always going
8:04 am
to be two hours. >> you know that is not right. >> nobody watching at home believes that any moderators have any intention of voting in any republican primary. >> i just want to thank all of my colleagues here for being civil and not falling for the traps. >> we are $19 trillion in debt, we have isis and al qaeda attacking us and we're talking about fantasy football? >> you look at the question, donald trump are you a comic book villain, ben carson, can you do math, marco rubio why don't you resign, jeb bush why have your numbers fallen. why don't you talk about the substantive issues. >> their dial tests reveal how the group reacted to what the
8:05 am
c candidates said. the green line represents to the moderate republicans in the group. the red line represents conservative republicans. the higher the lines go, the more favorable the reaction. frank luntz is now with us from washington. let us begin with senator cruz. how well did that dosome. >> it did as well as debate testing since 1976. it go 98 out of 100. we had 26 people in our fox news group. 24 out of 26 was giving him a perfect 100. he goes and he listses all the different questions. he never looks down at his notes. he never has to refer to any text, he remembers every single question that every reporter asked, and people were stunned by that capability. but people reacted to when he
8:06 am
said enough is enough, these are biassed questions. one of the biggest complaints was the equestions went too long. in several circumstances the questions were even longer than the responses that the candidates with were allowed. >> we also saw some chris christie telling it like it is. let's take a look at that moment and see what that showed on the dial tab. >> there's no evidence that they can fix anything in washington, d.c. >> what should we do? >> we should be investing in all types of government. >> do you want me to answer? or do you want to answer? because i got to tell you the truth, even in new jersey, what you're doing is called rude. >> frank, lithe lines went up there too. >> and whoever thought that
8:07 am
chris christie would be the emit by of -- had enough of washington and had enough of the democrats and christie's strategy with was not to -- by being to the point, by being blunt and frooningly by being chris christie. >> senator marco rubio had an excellent night. let's play this clip. >> the democrats have the ultimate superpac, it's called the main stream media. and i'll tell you why. last week, hillary clinton went before a committee, she admitted she had september e-mails to her families saying, hey, this attack in benghazi was caused by al qaeda like elements. she said it was because of the
8:08 am
video and the media was saying it was to the greatest week in her campaign. it was the week she got exposed as a liar. but she has her superpac helping her out, the american main stream media. >> the superpac forms the debate. then you tell them what they need to know. then you close with what everybody wants to hear. the key is the first 20 words and the last 20 words. no one is the better debater than marco rubio because it's reversed. he took on some tough challenges and some tough questions but he always had a solid beginning and a solid end. >> what about the -- >> i don't understand why the
8:09 am
candidate with one of the most unfavorable ratings. they thought jeb bsh was doing the job of the moderators. it almost sounded like the senators had been divided into the debate. never try to go after the king unless you can can kill him. jeb bush is weaker today because of it and i heard last night based on personal responses that there was some big bush fund-raisers who are now looking to move over to rubio. >> and china could be set this morning for a demographic boom, world's most populous country is dumping its long standing one child policy. it opens the door for all chinese families to have two children. >> what china has done officially today is approve a policy, it's been sort of
8:10 am
allowing for quite some time and like one child policy, it's driven by demographics, it was implemented in 1980 to slow china's population growth. there were exceptions, families in rural areas could have more children because they immediated children as workers on their farms. in 1984, the chinese made a quiet change saying that if a husband and a wife are both from a one child family they can have two children because that just replaces not increases the population. today's move make that stance official. it's not been a popular policy in china. we're told untold millions were forced to have abortions because of getting pregnant with a second child. china's long-term population growth has been stemmed.
