Kaisch ? Huckabee ?
Wish Carly had made the top ten. Perhaps next debate!
Thanks for posting. Just saw this on FOX.
What happened to Carly Fiorina?
Wish Fiorina had made the cut. She’s polling low, but she’s run a brilliant campaign with very few resources and I think she’d get a huge boost if she had the sort of camera time the debates would bring.
I think that’s a reasonable group. There’s a pretty broad range of opinions in that group.
Sorry, Rick Perry. You have to sit at the kiddie table with George Pataki and Happy Gilmore.
Trump - President
Cruz - VP
Fiorina - Sec State
Allen West - Sec Def
Megan Kelly embarrased herself with a fairly negative about Huckabee. How can she be considered a disinterested party to the debates?
She will be on stage at the earlier debate that will be telecast prior to the main event. However, I'm with you; I wish she were on the same stage as the first group. Hopefully enough people will watch the first debate to spark their interest and she will have better numbers to propel her forward.
I know, long shot; but, hey --- it could happen.
Yeah....that's a real laugher...
Carly’s been beating on Hillary!...can’t have that. Journalists pick our candidates...not the little people.
Damn, I can’t believe Christie made it.
The MSM want us to believe he’s “outspoken” like Donald Trump, but in reality all I’ve seen is a blowhard bully who has an abysmal record on 2nd Amendment rights.
Everyone thinks Trump will disrupt on Thursday, BS, Christie will try to bully everyone on that stage to get his numbers up.
Huck is polling about the same as Cruz, Rubio, Paul and Carson, in the 4-7% area. Kasich was smart to time his announcement for the week before the debate. His “announcement bump” moved him up from 1% to 3% and squeaked him in. Same with Crispy.
I’d much rather hear Fiorina than any of Bush, Huckabee, Christie, or Kasich.
