It’s racism against women!
GOPe wringing its hands because the token woman can’t be on the big stage. Fiorina has no shot at being the nominee. None. Nada.
Fiorina is an employee of The Cheap Labor Express.
And that gutless wonder, Scott Walker is on?
JEb needs her there to take the “War on Women” to Trump
*Sniff* Carly has surged. *sob* She doubled (to a bigger single digit number) her support! *Pout* Mean people are treating her with just as much disdain as the other single digit losers!
Oh the huge manatee.
That is going to make blood shoot out her whereever!
The complaint against CNN’s methodology of using polls from July 15th forward is valid. They use the polls from the date of the last debate forward.
The complaint about polling states that don’t have early primaries on the basis that candidates aren’t running nationally, is bogus. The debates should not be governed by just a handful of states. And Trump is running nationally. I’m not sure if the rest of the field is really running.
To receive an invitation to the September 16, 2015 Republican Presidential Primary Debate, a candidate must satisfy the following criteria:1. Fulfill the requirements outlined in Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution of the United States
2. File a Statement of Candidacy and register with the Federal Election Commission by August 26, 2015
3. Achieve an average of at least one percent in three national polls from among those that are recognized in this document. Recognized polls must be released between July 16, 2015 and September 10th, 2015.
4. Have at least one paid campaign aide working in two of the four early voting states designated by the Republican National Committee: Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Carolina no later than August 26, 2015
5. Visited two of the four early voting states designated by the Republican National Committee at least once no later than August 26, 2015
6. The first 10 candidates ranked from highest to lowest in polling order from an average of all qualifying polls released between July 16 and September 10 who satisfy the criteria requirements outlined in this document will be invited to participate in Segment B of the September 16, 2015 Republican Presidential Primary Debate. In the event of a tie for 10 th place, the tiebreaker will be an average of all qualifying polls released between August 26 and September 10. The second tiebreaker will be an average of all qualifying polling conducted in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada released between July 16 and September 10.
7. Candidates who satisfy the criteria and achieve an average of at least one percent in three national polls, but are not ranked in the top 10 of polling order will be invited to participate in Segment A of the September 16, 2015 Republican Presidential Primary Debate.
Gonna need more than good polls to force Crispy Crème off of that stage.
Like maybe a running start. And a battering ram.
Fiorina should make the top 10 easily I think.
Cry me a river.
Does anyone know if the others have filed their financial forms yet? If not, I don't understand how they can be allowed into the second debate.
Could care less about Fiorina.
Isn’t this where public schools employ the “most improved” category- so no one’s feelings are hurt?
Apparently she is not among the "annointed" by the GOP-e fat-cat bosses. They're probably afraid she will make senor el Jebbo look like the idiot loser he is.
This is pretty bogus. I’m not a Carly supporter by any stretch of the imagination, but using old polling data is a prop-up for losers like Jeb!, and artificially suppress support for candidates like Fiorina and Carson.
