There goes Newt being stupid again.

Newt scores when he has liberal commie journalists.

He can hit them for their obvious bias, and then pose the question they should have asked.

The stupid part is why do our guys even try to answer the media’s questions designed to embarrass conservatives.

I would just take any question and say, “What you meant to ask me, comrade, is how do I think Obama got his social security number ? Well let’s ask him. And while he is at it, he can show us his college transcripts too.”

I think this is foolish on Newt’s part.

He shines spectacularly when he’s being “questioned” by a liberal newsie. His ability to turn the dime on its head is unparalleled.

Also, it gives an excuse to Obama not to debate at all.

I don’t like this.

Well, who else could moderate the debates? Librarians? Non-partisan types of SOME kind?? the American Idol panel?

This could be good.

Perhaps just leaders of citizens groups, etc. could step up to the mics.

It could work.

I rather liked Luntz’s recent interview where the candidates just stood directly in front of the focus group and answered questions ...it really brought out an entirely new dimension of each one of them (only SAntorum and Newt participated — obviously Mitt couldn’t be bothered).

As usual — Newt innovates!

Not so stupid. Another way to look at it: you have a new home built. You find what you believe to be a number of construction defects.
According to your construction contract, you have agreed to submit the matter to arbitration, before or instead of going to court.
You learn that the arbiter is the local president of the county home construction association.

In the same way, the MSM is in the bag for Zero. We all know it, but pretend it isn’t so (except of course on FR). All Newt is saying is, “I demand a level playing field.” Good for him.
I don’t think requiring a `fair shake’ is asking anything unreasonable. “They” can find some impartial arbiters/moderators (acceptable to all—perhaps a panel and they strike off), or they can go pound sand.

Tell me, do you think for one minute that democrats would debate if the moderators were Rush, Hannity and Palin? Do you think they'd like to 'score' against moderators trying to pit them against each other.

It's about time we stopped feeding the MSM...
