In my humble opinion now that we are approaching the THIRD GOP debate, there should be a cutoff at 5% for Top Tier candidates. Drop the remaining candidates into alternate debate formats No-One under 5% should be present in prime-time.
Trump, Carson, Bush, Cruz, Rubio in Prime-Time, all others alternate debate venue.
Sweet. One of my favorite actors.
Which evidently hasn’t done much for him, since he’s nowhere close to leading in Iowa.
******************
Looks like we may still have 9 or 10 on the main stage based upon CNBCs criteria.
By setting a floor of a 3 percent average in polls conducted by
NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox, CNN and Bloomberg released between Sept. 17 and Oct. 21
They will round up from 2.5% to include any as 3%.

I am listening to the Tyngsboro Mass. speech ( I was raised in Massachusets ) It is nice to see and hear the type of people I worked and associated with for all the years I worked in my home state . Of course I have since left ( long ago ) and reside in a state with a conservative Governor...anyway for a republican to draw as he does in Massachusetts speaks volumes. Do not under estimate what is going on with voting populous.....we have the opportunity to flush the cesspool in D.C. I sincerely hope Ted Cruz will consider to align himself with Trump as his Vice President....

“He needs to make a “Welcome to the party, pal!” soundbite “
Great idea!
Stand by the next wave of articles about how Trump has plateaued, and can’t possibly go any higher.
I notice that in FOX polls Carson is always right behind Trump, before long, FOX polls will show Carson in the lead, while every other poll will show Trump leading by double digits. I believe that is because Murdoch is obsessed with getting a black republican, no matter what, and posting phony polls is part of his plan.
5% is a sensible cut-off point. I agree with you.
Trump, Carson, Bush, Cruz and Rubio should be the only candidates at the next debate.
Period.
Full stop.
End of story.
Now that’s a new take on the cabal strategy. Fascinating!
Watch for a Trump/Carson ticket. It will be a winner!
More than twice Carson
More than 3x Bush
Almost 5x Cruz
And so far ahead of the rest, it’s not funny. No it’s hilarious!!!
Agree wholeheartedly.
The circus must end. Time to get down to real business in this race.
Give the also-rans a participation trophy and send them on their way. Enough.
As has been famously said, "The office of Vice President isn't worth a warm bucket of spit."
Our nation would be much better served by a U.S. Attorney General Ted Cruz.
Murdoch is angry at the Trumps. When he dumped his WIfe Wendy he let everyone know in NYC they were to ditch her too. She was/is a friend of Ivanka. Ivanka refused to turn her back on her friend. Donald Trump released a statement that the Trump family would not take sides and considered both Wendy and Murdoch friends.
Guess he wasnt too happy about the statement and has decided to get even
