It was another big night for the big field of Republican presidential candidates.
Eleven candidates participated in the 2nd Republican debate tonight at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Library in Simi Valley, Calif. Each of them -- Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Mike Huckabee, Rand Paul, Carly Fiorina, Scott Walker, John Kasich, and Chris Christie -- was looking to find an edge in the crowded field.
The big event followed a debate of the "undercard," or lower-polling candidates -- Rick Santorum, Bobby Jindal, Lindsey Graham and George Pataki. We blogged it all.
