Oh please, people. I love Huner. I initially supported him. I sent him money. He took his shot and it’s over. The reason Real Clear Politics and their underlying polls don’t include him is that his support is statistically insignificant.
I would have been outraged if he had been excluded from early debates. But it’s not early! We are mid-primary season now, and it is emmently reasonable to trim the rosters down. It’s needed, and it’s good for the Republicans. The Donks are down to three. We still have four or five.
The debates with 9 people lined up are often boring, don’t clarify issues and a waste of time. Admit it: aren’t you getting sick of hearing Ron Paul? Weren’t you tired of listening to Tom Tancredo, no matter how correct he was on Immigration? I sure was.
I can’t believe all the whining here! Fox is a private entity that tries hard to do a fair job of reporting the news. To continue to treat candidates polling at under 2% with no realistic hope of winning as “as legitimate” as the top candidates is BOGUS AND MISLEADING in itself.
I am PLEASED to see the BACK MARKERS released from the debates.
You are wrong. Not only are they excluding him from this debate but in the prior debates a small number of questions were directed to him while larger numbers were given to the media favorites. Unfair format. For the N.H. debate exclusion they went by Iowa data, but ignored Hunters third place finish in Wyoming. For the S.Carolina debate FOX couldn’t go by the New Hampshire results because that would have excluded Guilianni, so they added national polling results. The result was to exclude the guy they want to exclude, Hunter. A fair format would not exclude anyone with delegates currently as well.
Well, I am glad you’re content. I am a conservative and find it hard to be content with moderates and liberals. To each his own, I suppose.
There was NO better proof that the media controls our elective process than the 2006 election.
They will shut out those who do not kiss their a**.
It is a psychopathological phenomenon.
