[Awgie]

Astonishing and mind numbing that it took so long to stand up against this type of “bullying.” And very telling that it took the “outsiders” to make it happen.

I think the candidates need to have a list of questions they want to discuss. submit to said debate mods. then proceed to answer the questions submitted regardless of the question asked. down the line.

Even Fox is jumping on the ‘if they can’t stand the heat they should get out of the kitchen’ meme.

As Cruz tried to tell the dingaling that comes on before Hannity last night, debates are about informing the voters; what they are not suppose to be is some sort of contest between candidates and moderators.

Seriously, the egos on these media idiots.

Someone needs to explain this to the leprechaun as well.

I think Megyn Kelly Megyn...whatever her name is...is interviewing nightly for a move to an alphabet channel.

I watched her show last night because I knew Cruz was going to be on and she was almost as obnoxious with him as she was with Trump on the debate.

I don't like her!...don't like to listen to her!!!

The debates have turned into a sick kind of gameshow called, “Let’s Make Conservatives Look Stupid.” The hosts snicker and whisper and high five each other for particularly good “gotcha” questions.

Note it is not called “Let’s Make Republicans Look Stupid.” Only Conservatives—who threaten the sick status quo. Kasich got kid gloves and was blown kisses in the last one.

This isn't the 50's. There is no more 3 station nation.

This change is long overdue! We have our own cameras, any half literate imbecile can be president. We can find our OWN cameras and moderators and feed the media OUR signal.

Bottom line is, They need US, we don't need them!

[eartrumpet]

Wait a minute... this isn’t about the FR moderators?

The GOPe never had the balls to challenge the debate format because they were fearful of what is happening right now: That if they stood up for themselves, the mainstream media would call them "cowards" and say things like "If you Republicans can't handle difficult questions from journalists, how can you be expected to handle a Vladimir Putin?"

It's the equivalent of allowing a schoolyard bully to take your lunch money because you fear being verbally abused if you don't hand it over.

None of this would have happened if Donald Trump did not enter the race. We would have the predictable patronizing and humiliating debates with the predictable results.

Do you think the Democrats would allow their debates to be hijacked in such a fashion? Can you ever imagine the Democrats agreeing to a debate moderated by the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Mark Steyn?

[Brilliant]

Trump needs to be ready to pounce if the moderators take Hillary’s side.
