“Questions are being developed by the editorial staff of The New Hampshire Union Leader, with input from the public.”

...”With input from MSNBC/DailyKos and MediaMatters.”

There, it’s fixed.

I’m really looking forward to seeing Ted Cruz in action. I suspect Fiorina will also do well with Walker doing a passable job.

They invited all the candidates. It was a choice to participate; or not.

I understand. This forum is to please the pro-political crowd. It’s was a political formality Trump didn’t need and why he opted not to attend. No need to jump through their traditional protocol hoops.

Trump refused because the Sponsoring Entity, The New Hampshire Union Leader went out of its way to go after him in an Editorial.

They didn’t bother eviscerating any of the other Republican Candidates that they would never Endorse in a Million Years.

Trump told them to punt and to enjoy the Low Ratings.

The only reason I would entertain watching is because Senator Cruz will be there and because Carly will have a chance to share her Views surrounded by the Big Boys.

Carly is the only one that has been going after Hillary with the exception of Trump, but her criticisms are not amplified in the Media, purposely so.

To: Isara; All

After perusing Daily Kos, I have a pretty good idea of what tonight’s questions will be:

“Mr. Bush, do you agree with Bernie Sanders and a majority of Americans that now is the time for Single Payer Medicare-For-All?”

“Mr. Scott, would you agree that Donald Trump is a racist? Or is he just a crazy nut.”

“Mr. Cruz, do you agree with a majority of Americans that the Koch Brothers are EVIL?”

“Mr. Perry, do all Republicans engage in Securities Fraud?”

Etc, etc....

There is no better way to assess a candidate than to watch how they perform behind enemy lines.
