These sound bite “debates” annoy me. The “moderators” take more time to ask a question than the candidate has to answer. Why not just: “Each of you has one minute (or two, whatever) to address the immigration problem - go.” Let them talk! And moderators, shut up!!

Exactly! Tonight's "debate" was annoying and totally unfair to all candidates. It was all about getting ratings for FNC, not for hearing each candidate speak on the same issues.

That is exactly how it should be held!

But the MSM want to be the story.

********************************
Exactly why I gave so many negatives to Wallace and Kelly, as I was rating the moderators as well as the candidates. Both were rated negatively by me for being ultra snarky!

Both of them spent more time doing a lead in to the question, in their attempts to bias possible replies. ....Baer didn’t do that, but more quickly asked the questions.
