"Maybe the GOP ought to work on being inclusive to the Libertarian-minded folks instead of kicking them out? Just a thought.

Maybe if the liber-tear-ians weren't such goofballs they'd get more respect. If every one of the GOP cnadidates had cornballs like Ron Paul's, the debates would be 3 minutes long, punctuated by 87 minutes of hootin' and hollerin'.

You don’t get it. The GOP has fewer and fewer people to drawn from.

If you kick out everyone who may agree with you only 60% of the time - the GOP will never win a national election again.

Respect doesn't matter. Either run a conservative, or don't get several million votes. It's that simple.

GOP ran a liberal, and got what anyone with a brain could see was coming.

Right. ‘Cuz the current ‘debates’ give such great insight on a politicians thoughts. 90 sec. where 85 is evading the question.

ALL parties should be allowed to debate, long and hotly. let the real thoughts/ideals show themselves and the the People decide, not the party nor the media.
