Regarding the Twitter conversation around the debate, Trump was widely the most talked about candidate with 62% of the conversation, followed by Cruz at 16%, Rubio at 15% and Kasich with 7%. At one point during the Fox News spectacle, Trump said he was "flexible" on policy issues and Cruz chided Trump by telling him to "breathe", so Rubio interrupted, asking, "When they're done with the yoga, can I ask a question?"

In the end, Cruz, Rubio and Kasich clenched their teeth and said they would support Trump if he was the party's presidential nominee.

Trump is the party's front-runner by a wide margin, but other Republicans are working to keep him from winning the party's nomination.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz tried his best to solidify the "alternative-to-Trump" position he assumed following a strong showing on Super Tuesday. Romney has spoken out against Trump, but has yet to endorse another nominee.

By calling for targeted voting, Mr Romney was setting up the possibility of a contested convention when Republicans gather in Cleveland in mid-July to select their nominee for the November election to succeed Democratic President Barack Obama.

"He's done it across the country", Romney said in February 2012.

Trump already has the most Republican delegates and looks likely to win as long as the opposition remains divided.
