Enough is enough. Many of these candidates know they don’t have a chance to make a blip on a poll. This is about stuffing their pockets with campaign contributions.

“You’ve got to prevent it from becoming a ‘WWE SmackDown’ event on national television,”

I think that such a "WWE SmackDown" is exactly what we need - the RINOs will get smacked and the conservatives will rise to the top of the heap. It's when the RNC/GOPe tries to instill "fairness" that we the People suffer and the Left wins another one...

Their primary concern is producing an amnesty candidate. The Cheap Labor Express has paid the RNC millions to prevent us from electing anyone who would stop the invasion/cheap labor importation/colonization.

Here's a thought: Do Not Have Any Debates

Once you rid the Republican field of the RINO’s and Socialist in disguise, then Americans can choose from the three or four that will remain!

Enough said!

We have more than a year to go before the real run-up begins. Even if 20 enter, few will survive when they fail to top 2 percent in any poll, ever.

Their strategy will be to cut off inclusion into the debates by arranging the candidates alphabetically, after their last names are spelled backwards.

ZURC

The crowded stage will give way to a lot of single-answer responses, yes-or-no questions, and a show-of-hands.

Even with only a half-dozen contenders, they seldom get questions and responses that give much insight to them.

Of course, there will always be the Crowley and Steffie attempts at gotchas for the frontrunner(s).

One solution — if they are not getting double-digits in the basic polls, they don’t need to be on the debate stage.

Isolation booths!

All of the candidates get put in one, and all questions are asked simultaneously, with a clock in the corner. Viewers can pick which candidates they want to view.

After half time, all references by candidates to each other will be played in the isolation booth for the candidate to respond, if he chooses to.

The format already is that of a game show. Why not finish it?

“I would think that Reince Priebus has been thinking about exactly this issue, and also about how to ensure that the debates don’t turn into the ideological bloodfest that we saw in 2012, which pushed the whole ticket to the right,” said Cal Jillson, a political science professor at Southern Methodist University. “

The truth comes out. Don’t want to push the ticket to the right. Gotta make sure we get the RINO we deserve.

I think they need to have multiple debates with no more than three candidates present at a time. The networks can organize them and invite whomever they please as long as they get around to all of them.

How do you get into a debate?

Poll well.

How do you get your name in the polls?

Pass muster with the Uniparty/Media controllers.

The game is now as rigged as a Soviet “election.” The only difference is it’s just a touch more sophisticated.
