The seemingly never-ending ‘debates’ and multiple primary days all across the country is very expensive and tiring on both the candidates and the electorate.

I remember the night comedians, Leno, Letterman, etc, making fun of the long debate process of what was it 20+ debates?

Plus the George Stepinalloverus loaded questions and other liberal media tricks and mischief would be limited.............

I don't find it tiring at all. There's nothing more important in primaries than debates. Should we just watch all the cheesy, misleading ads instead? Not to mention, debates level the playing field between big-money candidates (RINOs) and upstarts (conservatives).

We should start the debates now and have them non-stop until the primary's over. There's almost no better way to get a feel for a candidate and preview how they'll compete on the national level. Romney wouldn't have even won his first debate with Obama if not for the practice he had in the primaries, so the debates not only help the voters, they help the candidate.

The debates last time were incredibly useful and revealing, and allowed lots of good candidates to make progress with their campaigns. Without them, Romney would've marched right in on his money. With them, we came close to beating his useless RINO butt.
