I think the date of the debate was concern for most candidates. It is the one week they would all like to take off.

At the last minute, Sarah should announce that she will participate as a non candidate attendee at Trumps debate and talk about the issues since possibly only two will show. That’ll ruffled the feathers of the media and Establishment! Oh Boy!

I’m so glad that you were able to pick up Kathy Griffin’s slack.

I don’t think it is doomed at all. Just because some of the othes don’t attend doesn’t mean it can’t be a meaningful conversation between a couple candidates. Seems to me the other candidates are RUNNING AWAY from the tough questions Donald Trump may have on his slate. We will enjoy watching it though.

He’s not talking about the birther issue.

but they can go to NBC, politico

Is it any wonder why the GOP are so screwed up when they cannot even grasp the basics of who should come to CPAC, Who goes to our debates, who runs on our ticket and who they choose to run our debates.

Hey obama don’t bother running , we’;re doing a damn good job of destroying ourselves

and what the hell is it with all these debates, the more they have the more the left gets on us.

Good for them. Trump is a modern P.T. Barnum. Let someone else play the sucker.

First of all, “The Donald” doesn’t have the money he claims. 7 reported bankruptcies. I mean... he started an AIRLINE!!!! Who the hell does that and expects to make money????

He is nothing more than a celebrity. A media whore. A supposed EX-Democrat. It is VERY difficult for me to take anyone who spends time on The Howard Stern Show and the WWE seriously in a presidential media role.

Bottom line, when was the last time we heard from “The Donald”? A couple of months before The Apprentice came on TV.

When is he sticking his fake hair in this Presidential election? A couple of months before The Apprentice comes on TV....

Do the math folks. Not that hard....

Is it a stretch for us to keep it classy?

how I wish Sarah had run instead of this dicking around with poxy debates run by left wing groups like politico, CNN etc and why are those who are liberal on social issues and some foreign running on a GOP ticket.

Maybe because she is a nut job lawyer who worked for the IRS and is married to a closeted homosexual and has zero chance of occupying the WH outside the tour?

You are despicable. I am not supporting Bachmann, but she and the husband are patriotic, honorable Americans and Christians, and don't deserve such mindless contempt.

Maybe Trump should reconsider and just have the three left have a meeting at his favorite pizza joint...betcha’ Sarah would join them too.

When she was on the news this morning she pointed out that Trump already knows who he’s going to endorse and he’s still talking abut running 3rd party himself.

I think I’d be wary of the situation too.

You’re only half right (about the right wing elites)
Apparently Trumps tough talk has convinced you that he’s some kind of conservative himself simply because the elites don’t like him. He is rather liberal himself on so many issues.

Yeah, the same Trump who excoriates Obama daily

And who excoriated Bush and praised Obama, and donated to Pelosi and Weiner in 2009? SUCH big "conservative".

I’m with you, I’m pretty tired of these clowns who call themselves conservative yet turn right around and sling that same trash at Bachmann that the left threw at Sarah Palin.

BTW from twitter. Teambachmann in Quad Cities: I’m THE consistent conservative. Gingrich & Romney favor the individual mandate. I will repeal Obamacare.

So much for her working for Romney.

They’ve also convinced some clowns that Trump has n voice and should just go away.

Umm, Trump is the clown. Why should Republican candidates go to a debate moderated by a giant RealityTV ego who is threatening to run against them. The entire idea is stupid.

That is a very serious charge. Where is the proof that Mr. Marcus Bachmann is a homosexual?

If anything Michele Bachmann and her husband are working through Christ-centered counseling to restore sodomites to normal.
