Laura Bush helped ruin W’s Presidency. We don’t need another goofy socialist in bed with another President. Mitt never answers questions after speeches, he is too cowardly to appear on Beck and Levin, and for good reason. “The trees are just the right size”, “My wife drives two Cadillacs”, is the type of thing that he says when he’s off-script.

Mitt against himself would be a compelling debate.
“( unless they can hand a commie his ba!!s on a platter )”
Using your standard that would only leave Newt in the debate.
fine by me.
Romney knows what works for him, no debates, no Sunday shows, limited friendly interviews, lots of TV, endorsements by Rinos willing to keep repeating lies and distirtions about your opponets, More TV and negative ads complete with lies and distortions about any candidate who nears him in the polls and help from the MSM who will turn on him as soon as he gets the nominations.
Romney’s new slogan “We Don’t Need No Stinking Debates”
Now if she’d said “No more debates run by the Dem/liberal media” or something like that...
So do you recommend he refuse to debate Obama in the general election too?
Santorum is right that Romney is uniquely unqualified to take on Obama on the key issue of the election, Obamneycare. But what Santorum stupidly doesn't get is that HE is uniquely unqualified to take on the key issue of this PRIMARY, whether Romney is conservative enough to be the nominee or not, because Santorum endorsed him in 2008 and said he was conservative! I cannot imagine a worse opponent for Romney than Santorum any more than I can imagine a worse opponent for Obama than Romney. If this primary turns into a fight between Santorum and Romney, then Romney will be the nominee. Santorum has been fully and effectively disarmed in this fight by his own support of Romney.
Yes, because you've really thought of something unique and original right? Why didn't every candidate think about videoing themselves arguing with......themselves and put it on youtube. Dude, if no one shows up at a debate there is no debate. You can't simply announce a debate, have no one show up, and video tape it. Debates are actual events, sponsored by news/entertain outfits. They only become debates by virtue of candidates showing up to talk.
I am supporting Newt by the way. I wish your idea would work, but it wouldn't. Nor do I believe for a moment there would ever be ANY Lincoln/Douglas style debates against Obama if Newt was the nominee. There would be the same 3 or so debates there are always are. Newt will ask for more debates since it is his strong suit, Obama will decline, Newt will hit him a few times with it until the media stops covering anything he says about it, and the issue will die.
Whatever you say, Dude
Poor Mitt, he wants to debate so badly, but alas, the little woman has put her foot down.
I would never allow my wife to go in front of anyone and say SHE decided their will be no more debates! What a wimp! It is not up to a wife to decide that, but the candidate himself, if he is a true leader.

Newt and Santorum should keep going to the debates...It’ll look bad for Romney not to attend, ditto his elfish little maRONiette.
I could understand a candidate saying they were done with debates.
But his WIFE says she won’t LET him do any more debates. Nothing good can come for a candidate when his wife starts ordering him around.
One reason to have more debates is to see how they handle themselves while under attack.
Hiding behind his wife’s skirt.
What a pu$$y.
Good idea. That would give each candidate an opportunity to discuss issues in depth without the manipulation and gotcha garbage.
The world is not a static place, especially in the area of foreign policy and the intense situations in the Middle East. We need continuing input from the candidates that is hard to accomplish on large scale on the campaign trail
I think Huckabee ought to take the initiative and do these Forums himself. I’d certainly think he would have the experience to do a great job and focus on the issues.
That would depend.. if they are set up by commies for commies, then I would refuse unless he agrees to a debate by one of our moderators also ( maybe rush or levin )... otherwise it is just another stacked deck... like what was said by a famous computer in an old movie... “Interesting game, Professor Falken. The only way to win is to not play at all”...
Correct!!! we do not need a meely mouthed soft socialist, or another damn “Compassionate” conservative at this point in time... we need a nasty assed sumbitch that is going to go in and cut stuff.... in other words, this country needs a hatchet man. There is only one hatchet man out there right now... small l libertarians for Newt!!!!
