A serious question: WHO is responsible for setting up these (as well as Presidential) debates?
I realize that only Fox is (somewhat, though even they are questionable) "Objective" but agreeing to all these debates moderated by Biased, Far Left, Hate Conservative, State-Run Media and their moderators/news persons is a recipe for disaster and meant only to try and show the Republicans in the worst light (with their "Loaded" questions) possible.
The candidates should agree that they won't subject themselves to such dog and pony shows and find some other venues (such as the Newt/Cain...whatever it was) and tell the RNC or whoever to go pound sand.
I think Bachmann (and I was not one of her fans) was correct. In fact, an analysis today showed that Romney has gotten significantly more time than any of the other candidates, overall, throughout all the broadcasts.
The candidates need to decide on and agree upon a format and a way of allotting time. These aren’t “debates,” they’re press interviews.
Also, it appears that the interviewers are able to adjust on the fly. Cain did poorly, and therefore he got less time - presumably from people who didn’t want to make him look bad.
So there’s got to be an objective standard for setting these things up.
That said, there are NO Dem debates and the Dems pick their candidate in silence. Doesn’t anybody think this is strange???
