This is why I say Fred is shrewd. This is what he gains by staying out. And the current debates and campaign actually make the candidates look smaller.

If the candidates were smart, they'd get together and demand a format change for the rest of the debates. The debates are just serving as a platform for leftist reporters to make the entire GOP field look like a sideshow.

I don't know that Newt's "Lincoln-Douglas" approach would work, but surely 10 men who think they have what it takes to lead the free world can come up with something better than this.
