So Ron Paul and McCain get the stage?

Scraps getting the scraps.

The two liberals can not afford to be where they can be asked hard questions. They will stay where the fish wraps (who want one of them to be the nominee) will ask them softball questions. Otherwise the borders, the second amendment, the response to the first trade center bombing, support for homosexual activism and pedophilia etc could sink these two. McStain has nothing to lose at this point - he’s toast.

I have a hunch that Romney is also going to opt out of the Cartoon Network debate.

[no dems]

What about Hunter and Huckabee? Will they be there?

I understand people's reasons, I guess, for not wanting to be on the forum. But, there will be some people who will not appreciate those who "duck out" on this.

As far as Romney feeling that the Presidency deserves more than getting a question from a snowman; that's an elitist, snobbish attitude if I ever heard one. I rather get a question from a snowman than Wolf Blitzer or Anderson Cooper.

But, when you're as charismatic and rich as Mitt, I can understand not wanting to "mix" with the common people. (Gag me with "The Book of Mormon".)
