Why didn’t Mitt Romney debate Newt Gingrich one on one?

Leaders don’t debate. They lead.

The Heavyweight Champion doesn’t take on any and all challenges from any wannabe. The ‘wannabe’ first has to clear the field of any other contenders. To my mind, Cruz can’t even take out Kasich. Why then should Trump cede any recognition to an also-ran?

And we are all bored.

Why should Trump debate Cruz again? What might make sense is for Cruz to debate Kasich without Trump there.

It is the smart thing to do, but that doesn’t make it the right thing to do.

Reminds me of the old adage.....”Do you want to be right or do you want to be President”.

Who will ‘moderate’ the debate? Meygan Kelly? ABC? CBS? CNN? NBC? David Letterman?

They can debate on Twitter well enough. That’s a perfectly fair debate.

Otherwise ...

Because he is probably tired of the Hillary nod Ted gives after every answer.

Megyn Kelly to Ted Cruz: ‘The record supports you’ [only after audience sleeps]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3390097/posts

[With moderators like these — who needs enemies?]

After the Fox News-Google debate Megyn Kelly interviewed Ted Cruz. [7:40 Video begins with a 1:00 clip of the earlier debate] Kelly continued to pursue the “amnesty” angle that she’d begun during the debate [starting at 3:41] - about his history on illegals, immigration and amnesty, but concedes:

Kelly: “I look at your record, a lot, to see: Did Ted Cruz really want legalization, or didn’t he?” “I think the record supports you - that you did not want it; it does.”

“It really was a poison pill amendment.” Then there is back and forth where Kelly states that Cruz...

Of course Cruz wants to debate. He doesn’t have 3 moderators and 3 candidates throwing bombs at him at every debate. He doesn’t have a hostile audience like Bush supporters filling up the audience and booing him. He doesn’t have plants in the audience trying to embarrass him. He doesn’t have thousands of fascists trying to shut him down.
Give one good reason why Trump should go? So Cruz can score points with all of this offensive against Trump?? Trump is smarter than that.

Because Trump simply doesn’t ‘think well, on his feet’. His ramblings about “the lines around the states” his near continuous repetitions of the same phrase, and his sentences without a verb, or a subject, of both, are examples. ‘Mano a mano’ with Cruz would nearly destroy him. He would be reduced to “liar, liar, pants on fire’. Oh, wait.......
