Don’t see Cruz in the list. I like Cruz’s idea for moderators-Rush,Hannity, Levin.

Excellent.

This is what real leadership is all about. I’m glad to see the candidates taking charge of the process, and booting the establishment GOP apparatchiks to the back of the bus.

Many Freepers have suggested this very move.

I had originally typed Rubio, but changed it to read...”and one more”

He’s young and very smart. He can be slapped arou...er, uh...molded into a strong player.

Maybe..and if so I applaud him. And maybe it really is the candidates joining together. They did so during the last debate.

The RNC has the same goals as the DNC -— Big Government, lots of money, and lots of corruption. Their only difference is their list of cronies.

I just can’t fathom anyone other than those 3 winning the nomination. Rubio is the strongest of the Establishment-approved candidates.

I think Trump is the right man for the job now, but I too think Senator Cruz is a wonderful candidate.

The RNC backed up a caravan of Brinks trucks and dumped money all over CNBC for last night’s debate. Look at all the thanks the candidates got from their “moderators.”

Why would they not be involved? They are running as well.

Maybe if the media driven polls and the media driven debates weren’t in control...they would have a voice that would gain them some support.

If Bush shows up, turn off the lights and act like nobody is home

Bush ain't gonna show. Why would he want anything changed, when the RNC tried to tee this nomination up for him, similar to the way the DNC did for Hillary.

the media- war on women

Republican voters- what’s your position on overturning obamacare. what about the millions who lost their doctors and insurance due to obamacare. what about Kate’s law and defunding sancturary cities

the media- evolution questions

Republican voters- Boehner, good or bad? Debt ceiling good or bad...

There’s a deep divide on what the media is concerned about and what Republican voters are concerned about.

“The GOP debates have been a godsend for their ratings.”

And for their ability to define and pick the Republican nominee.

Yes, it’s about time. This should have been done years ago. The candidates need to stick together on this and present it to the GOP as “our way or the highway”. It has been ridiculous the way these debates have been run for years now.

Trump, Cruz, Rubio, and Carson have what Seinfeld calls “Hand”, or in other words, the upper hand.

They got the goods, and everybody knows it.

So, they can take their ball and play on someone else’s field.

They’d be better to set it on fire than spend it that way.

“Trump is up to something. He’s the ringleader of this!”

You say that like it is a bad thing.

The bigger question would be if they do this does

1. The RNC try to cut off party funding. If the RNC does that then would Trump/Carson/Cruz/Rubio/Christie be technically no longer running as Republicans?

2. Does the RNC lose control of the party?

Just curious

Trump, Carson, Rubio, Cruz. Those are the only credible candidates now.

Trump, Cruz, and Rubio. The rest should all just go away for good, but we still have to pretend like Carson could actually win the nomination for a while

Right.
