Republicans should say "We are having a debate in X City and these are the moderators, what broadcaster wants to televise it?" they should have NO SAY AT ALL in who the moderators are

Conservative talk radio hosts Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and Rush Limbaugh should be tapped to host a Republican debate since they actually care about issues GOP voters are concerned with, says Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. Cruz, one of the 15 candidates taking part in the two GOP presidential debates Wednesday night, told Fox News Channel's "Special Report" on Thursday he is tired of liberals being in control of the discussion.
"In the Democratic debate, they get a ton of love from the moderators and it's all praising the different candidates, avoiding too much clash," Cruz said. "On the Republican side, you look at an awful lot of the media interviewers, their object is whoever the Republican nominee is, to beat up on them, and to have people either stay home or vote for Hillary Clinton."
In one of the 2012 debates, ABC's George Stephanopoulos, a former staffer of President Bill Clinton, repeatedly asked GOP candidates about their stances on birth control.
"We found out about a month later that was the opening charge of the Democrats' made-up war on women," Cruz said.
Cruz was asked about charges that his rival Sen. Marco Rubio has missed too many Senate votes while running for president. Cruz said he isn't concerned about quantity, but quality, and that it is more important to be on hand for the vital votes.

Can’t we start a “Go To Funding” to raise the money and put it on?
Those folks could host either the Republican debate or the Democrat debate. I’d be happy either way.

Let’s do it!!!!
Debate
It would be a debate about issues important to conservatives.
This is where Free Republic needs a “Like” button.
How about Rush, Sean and Holdonnow as moderators of the old white people debate?
I suggested Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh and Mark Steyn earlier today, Hannity is ok, but Steyn would bring a whole lot more to the task of moderation in my opinion.
Sign me up!
Steyn , Savage and Limbaugh .
I would also like to see Ted Nugent in that line-up.
Great idea, but Reince Priebus and the clowns running the GOP would never allow it.
The left would reinforce their, “War on Women” meme by constantly re-playing the sound bite of Hannity asking Fiorina if she would like to sign up for the dollar shave club.
Savage? Not that gun grabber
actually .... here’s a GREAT idea ... the GOP offers Network X to televise the next GOP debate (with Limbaugh, Hannity and Levin) ... on the condition that they also host a DNC debate with the same three moderators ... all or nothing ...
why not all four ?
Sarah Palin on OAN
Better yet, conservative talk radio hosts Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and Rush Limbaugh should be tapped to host a Democrat debate.
The ratings would be through the roof!
