Boulder, Colo. - If you watched tonight's GOP presidential debate held at the University of Colorado and hosted by CNBC, you may have noticed the moderators acted more like a Democrat attack team than journalists asking questions about policy.Â
Shortly after the debate ended, RNC Chairman Reince Priebus took to the spin room to slam the outlet, saying the network should be ashamed of their performance.Â
"I was proud of our candidates for standing up to a pretty hostile environment. I was very disappointed in the moderators. I'm disappointed in CNBC. I thought maybe they would bring forward a pretty fair forum here tonight but I think it was one gotcha question, one personal low blow after the other," Priebus said. "All I can tell you is that while I'm proud of our candidates for pretty much sticking together, I'm very disappointed in the moderators and I'm very disappointed in CNBC."

Until our "leaders" start using words like "racist" and "sexist" to attack our enemies, they're wasting their time.
Simply exposing Liberals for what they are doesn't work anymore. It worked 20 years ago. That's why Bush is failing so miserably. He's using 90s "Oprah-soccer mom-feel good tactics."
Liberals reign supreme in every institution in this nation. They don't care if they're exposed. They are using government institutions to destroy their enemies (us), were caught doing it (IRS - Tea Party), and are laughing their asses off about it. They have no fear of exposure.
We have to make them hurt. Until they are afraid for their livelihoods, careers, reputations, etc. every time they try their liberal stunts, then all the complaining in the world isn't going to matter.
Again, we have to ATTACK!!!! not complain.
The RINO National Committee are to blame for this and the absolute mess all of the “debates” have been so far. Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas. No surprises here.
Real debate: 3-4 candidates randomly selected sit down for 2-3 hours on a topic area. No “moderators,” timekeeper only to ensure equitable division of time. Repeat for other groups.
If Trump hadn’t bashed the press so badly from the very beginning NOBODY, except MAYBE Cruz, would have said ANYTHING tonight and certainly not the ‘rnc chairman’.
Ted Cruz changed the format of the debate with his rant against the media. Prior to that the questions and responses were attacks on Republicans by Republicans. After that the candidates came to their senses. The questions were formulated prior to the debate after much consultation. The were designed to pit the candidates against each other. The left overplayed their hand however. John Harwood’s questions, “Leading republican candidate when you look at the average of national polls right now is Donald Trump. when you look at him do you see someone with the moral authority to unite the country?†was met by groans from the audience. After the debate Reince Priebus said, “I thought maybe they would bring forward a pretty fair forum here tonight.†What banana boat did this guy fall off of. People like Harwood and Crowley are not unbiased moderators of a debate. Now we
I am not sick of it. Neither are most people, obviously. Truth is truth and it needs to be said.
For example: How about that question to Rubio about cashing in his 401k being an example of his inability to manage money, or something like that. I couldn’t believe it. How dare they bring up his personal finances like that. Is it anyone’s business that he cashed in his money? It is not illegal. Maybe that was a very responsible thing to do if we knew the reason. It wasn’t irresponsible. It was his own money after all.
Rubio isn’t even my candidate but come on. Then there is the list that Cruz gave. On and on....
So Reince is shocked, SHOCKED! that the LSM attack dogs that he selected for the debates acted like LSM attack dogs. Whoda thunk it?
Glad I didn’t watch.
When it was Fox focusing worse questions on Trump only, Reince and his crew didn’t say a peep.
Media personalities and debate moderators acted like a-holes.
In other news, a bear cr*pped in the woods and the Pope is still Catholic.
Reince, Reince, Reince.....YOU BOOKED this GROUP!!! IDIOT!
CNBC is a form of influenza virus.
Regardless, Mark Levine, Ann Coulter and Sarah Palin should be Republican debate moderators. There would be zero "gotcha!" questions... rather, strictly substantive policy questions from three patriots.

Oh brilliant, Reince Priebus. You are either a snake or you are stupid. You allowed it to happen. And you probably had marching orders to do it on purpose in order to boost Bush.
Cancel the next debate. Watch the media scream for mercy.
It is time the pubs take back their own debates. You want it on your station fine but we will have our own moderators for republican debates.
Exactly. Fox was much worse.
This feigned outrage is part of the narrative.
Gave up expecting honesty, integrity and fairness from the left about 15 year ago. Let me know when the shooting starts.
Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader.....
GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!
I understand your intent, but no. Someone who participates here at JimRob’s site without donating is not taking money from taxpayers via government confiscation.
FR would be a lot less vibrant without “freeloaders” posting, and it works because enough people voluntarily chip in to keep it going.
Reince Priebus should kick his own ass !
