It forgot to mention that Newt is married to Calista.
I think she missed the boat.
Hey, you forgot to mention that Buddy Roemer wasn’t invited!
Even “Fred Karger” (?) got the dignity of being in the also ran but not invited!
Poor Buddy!

I’ve got a qestion that I’m pretty dang sure won’t be asked: Where do the candidates stand on future US taxpayer-funded bailouts of Europe? I’d bloody well like to know the answer.
Can the debate be viewed on the internet anywhere? We don’t get MSNBC.
Huntsman and Paul should also be disinvited. Sorry, but it is the truth. :)
Chrisy Matthews will be in a tingle-free zone.
I heard Nancy invited Sarah there to watch over the festivities. LOL or is that loom
heresy!
Paul needs to get his head back between the stirrups and stop wasting every ones time.
you got that right. Buddy Roemer is doing to do far better in this race than huntsman.
Yes. Click the source link. That's where MSNBC claims they'll post the live internet stream.
Why should they be disinvited?
What I want to hear discussed, is what each candidate will do to put an end to the islamiztion of America.
I’m pretty sure we will go through the whole campaign without hearing this issue addressed in any detail if at all.
In my estimation, it is the number one, most threatening problem facing America, now and far into the future.
Mark for later.
