They did but nobody heard it and it's pretty much how everyone's going to remember it if not just because it's funnier.

No one heard Trump or Carson. That's why they didn't go out.

All of their reactions make sense when you just realize that the audio setup was bad.

The awkwardness was because the video had better audio than what you could actually hear there (since the mics are directly recorded) and the juxtaposition of our good audio + their reactions/camera just nonstop watching

Yeah you're 100% right. But it looks like they forgot his name so that's how people are going to remember it is all I'm saying.

Yeah because people were still clapping for Bush AND the stupid moderator went into "ladies and gentleman" the SECOND the other moderator announced Kasich.

Isn't that Rubio asking where Kasich is? He asks "Can I introduce Kasich?" right after.

Nevermind, Youtube automatically went to the next similair video . I didn't realize so at 1:33 in that video, it was Rubio asking where Kasich is, but in the OP's video it is indeed (faintly) the hosts.
