Agree.
With all due respect to Nancy Reagan...Hewitt is correct.
Hewitt is exactly right, and he should be on that panel.
No, how about some unknown people who understand the Constitution asking hardcore questions? Why does it have to be celebrities?
Enough with the celebrities.
I agree.
I agree with Hugh here, time for a change in Republican debates.

Indeed.
I may get flamed for this, but it’s also time to move on from the Reagan adoration.
I strongly believe in understanding history, honoring it, and learning from it, but the continual references to Reagan are wearing thin. He has been gone for decades.
The conservative argument must be made for today and for the future, not looking backward. Continually talking about the Reagan years makes it look like today’s conservatives want to live in the past and have no answers for today’s problems.
Reagan’s place in history is assured. He was right about many things. But a huge percentage of the electorate has no personal memory of his Presidency.
We need new leaders who can articulate conservative principles for today’s world.
Oh yeah. It’s time to STOP letting the libs and Rinos define the debates or the where these debates will happen. Open forum, head to head with only a mediator for enforcement of the time limit.
Libs, Socialists and Rinos will be destroyed in this setting.
That damn old truth will be destroy liars in the light of day and it’s enemies will be exposed.
Why are we even talking about Presidential debates next Spring. This is rediculous 18 months before a Presidential election and 8 months before the 1st primary. It’s time to roll this back to have Presidential Primaries in the Spring instead of immediately after New Years 2012.
NO-NO-NO to letting liberals control the early agenda!
I agree and glad someone spoke out against it.
Would half the candidates dare show up?
But can someone explain to me the problem with having the debate at the Reagan Library? I don't see how the two issues are connected, or what Hewitt is getting at with respect to Nancy Regan. It seems you could obviously have a conservative dream team panel, but still have it at the Reagan Library. What gives?
We have Parties ... Tea Parties, no debate necessary, SH Politicians just need to do what Hillary said she wanted to do “LISTEN”
I think we just shouted pretty loud, we can Shout even louder 2012...
I’m tired of Politicians PERIOD ... they better hear us soon or they better get out of the way ... by 2014 we may be able to retire the Majority of “Career Politicians” and one of the first cuts is their RETIREMENT! (I actually have a four or five page Rant in my head, I’ll share it later)
TT
In fact, let’s have Rush, Hannity, MedVed, Coulter moderate the Democratic debates.
Fair’s fair!
Spring 2011 is just too damn early for presidential debates. I have no issue with the kick off being at the Reagan library. As for moderators… we go through that every cycle. Rush, Hewitt and the rest would be no better choosing or asking questions. I’d like to see Brit Hume moderate though.
