The Olympics for ‘moderates’ and ‘independents’. Who has the nicest smile?

As Breitbart would have said, “So?”
Let the right-side media organize four debates and invite them. They don’t come, no debates.

Where the hell is Fox News? Who negotiated this with the media?

PBS, ABC, CNN and CBS are represented.
Why not FOX–their audience, by far, is bigger than the others.
Why doesn’t Reince Priebus OBJECT to this ?
Is this election important or not?

I agree with that – unless I miss my guess by a LOT, Fox has more viewers than the other four COMBINED.

So the POTUS debate will go like this:
“Mr. President, when is the last time you cried, and why? No, no, please, we don’t need to see your school records.
“Mr. Romney, how many people did you kill today and why? Did they threaten to release your tax returns?”
The VP debate will go something like this:
“Mr. Biden, what’s your favorite ice cream flavor, and do you like it with or without sprinkles?
“Mr. Ryan, name the original members of the 1545 Council of Trent.”

Why is everybody surprised? It’s ALWAYS like this.
And it doesn’t matter.
Romney can debate rings about the Won…rehearsed answers notwithstanding.
And Ryan versus Joey?
Bring. It. On.

No Fox? Would love to see Cavuto moderate a debate. He does not allow interviewees to give non-answers.

If Romney had any stones about the debates, he would demand that the first debate be moderated by Rush Limbaugh, the second by Neil Boortz, and the third by Michelle Malkin. Ryan should demand the VP debate be moderated by Bill Whittle.
Tell Obama and his koolaidians in the Enemedia™ that those are the debates that Romney and Ryan will be attending. They will NOT show up at the demmorhoid-led debates. If Obama and Biden want to evolve backbones, stand on their own hind legs and attend the real debates, fine. If not, fine.
If the libtards don’t like it, tough luck. Tell them that we are sick and tired of the liberal media controlling the narrative. We want some tough questions. Trust me — Mr. Boortz will hammer both “contestants” about the socialist income tax and when Ms. Malkin is the moderator, the Secret Service better have a fire extinguisher on hand to put Obama out after her questions cause him to spontaneously combust.
If the libtards are going to be “moderators,” I won’t be watching any of it.

Tell me the ONE thing that all of these people have in common. YES! They all vote DEMOCRAT!
Someone should take out an ad and run in on the networks and point out that fact. Be sure the question of how those debates can be fair is the one that the viewers will have on their minds for months. Include some of their most choicest anti-conservative spew. Show the world their true bias.

Please, please, please, please, please tell me why Republican candidates continue to stand for this!!
I would no more agree to debate with these idiots asking the questions than I would dive into a pool of sharks. Who makes these decisions? Who agrees to these idiots? Who picks these idiots?
Can’t something be done about it?

Here is RINO central’s contact page:

They , particularly Beltway Bonehead Reince Priebus, should have their asses fried to greasy cinders for agreeing to these hopelessly biased “moderators”.

DWS to co-anchor at least 2 debates to ensure “balance”.

It seems BOTH side had to agree on each moderator. Therefore, this is CLEARLY a *PRIEBUS* FAIL. INEXCUSABLE FAIL.
Each debate could EASILY jeopardize the whole campaign.
There should have been NO debates, if need be. THAT would have worked to Romney’s advantage as well…he’s NOT the best in such a setting; he’s NO Gingrich.
Let’s just hope for the best, now that it’s been set.

“RR” stood for something pretty cool yesterday.
Now, it stands for “Republican Retards.”

@Birdie — I sent them an email that was pretty much the same thing as my comment above. I think I hurt their feelings and somehow, I know they won’t be “getting back to me” later.

“Oh, Most Gracious Leader, how didst thou feel when first told of the fact that the miserable wretch Mittens Romney was in fact, a murderer?”
I won’t be watching any of this. At all.

Don’t give The Won an excuse to back off the debates. Take the debates as they stand & do a Newt on them instead

Unfortunately, the Republican establishment is OBSESSED with tying it’s own hands behind it’s back. This is why we are doomed.
When dems say, “First debate: PBS” the correct response is, “Great, second debate is Rush Limbaugh’s show.”
I will be resigning my Republican affiliation on Nov. 7th.

Outrageous — those moderators are all senile old DNC hacks. Lehrer and Scheiffer’s leg-bags will be leaking. Much more entertaining if we had Britt Hume/Jake Tapper/Bill Cunningham/Mark Levin/Megyn Kelly as hosts. Why would RNC agree to such an obvious liberal-biased format??

Might as well have the cast from the Jersey Shore as the debate moderators. At least the questions won’t be loaded leaning toward the left.
