Looks like this debate is doomed .
>> Umm, Trump is the clown. Why should Republican candidates go to a debate moderated by a giant RealityTV ego who is threatening to run against them. The entire idea is stupid. >>
No one threatening to run third party should moderate the debates - OR participate in the debates. (memo to paultards)
You and the media seem to agree, cool.
You have to wonder why Palin endorsed it after a few had already turned it down. It looks wimpy to change your mind just because she endorsed it.
Bad move on her part and I like Sarah. She should walk it back.
Trump isn’t even sure he isn’t going to run. That’s about like having a debate moderated by one of the candidates.
Actually I’d like to see another Huckabee style forum with audience members asking questions of the candidates individually.
For the sake of disclosure, I’ve changed position on this one.
The Trump Show with staring The Donald. With special guest Newt Gingrich. Oh and some other dude.
Gay-dar.
Her husband just screams gay to those of us who van pick them out.
Trump will have a temper tandrum because they wont attend his little boy party. So he will run 3rd party to get back at them. That is the plan, that is his agenda.
I agree.
Trump is still leaving a run for president open. So why would he be conducting a debate? It boggles the mind!
And he is a reality TV star among other things whose thing about “You’re Fired” is probably the basis for this ill conceived idea.
It’s nuts. Anyone who agrees with it is also nuts.
Trump is the ultimate crony capitalist. He proudly defends his theft of property through eminent domain.
Hey, I know, let’s pith off Trump so he’ll run 3rd party and ruin it for all the candidates !
If he runs, which he may, his impartiality would be called into question. I can’t believe people are stupid enough to think this is a good idea.
I am not sure what to say. I do know that the Republican establishment is against any Republican from attending the debate. I don’t know if that is Bachmans reason or not.
One on one between Newt and Santorum. Whoopee.
It will be amusing to see if Newt goes forward. It is hardly to his advantage to go one on one with a conservative one percenter. If the debate goes forward, it will be a show-down between the smug professor and the smart-ass kid in the front row is always raising his hand to show off in the front of the class.
I think Newt is a Trump suck up.
Supposedly he is anti-Obama . Why would he run third party ?
No proof, other than his lisp makes Liberace sound like Clint Eastwood.
Actually, that fact that she is a lawyer who worked for the IRS and is suffering from Megalomania is enough for me to steer clear.
That and her ineffective leadership of the "Tea Party Caucus", who can be counted on to not vote as a bloc and therefore is not worth spit.
He’s the king of suck-ups. That’s why, unless Trump calls it off, Newt will go forward with this farce.
