It is stupid; who needs who more? Do the GOP candidates really need to spend time on a network with a microscopically small audience, or does PMSNBC need to have a candidates forum?

They should snub NBC and let their audience shrink, and appear only on FOX, or some other suitably favorable forum.

NBC needs to air the debate more than the candidates need to debate on NBC.

Would be nice to hold the debate to which the media is invited, rather than the individual media outlet holding the debate and inviting the candidates.

As for moderators (and not inquisitioners), their job is to ask provocative questions, then let the candidates respond so we, the voters, can hear what they think.

Candidates need to take the reins from the media.

[In God I trust]

If the candidates have another debate run by a liberal I will not watch. I will also make sure that write each campaign and let them know that they will not receive a dime from me if they continue to do these debates with the enemy.
