So once again the vast majority of states in the primary don’t matter. Only the first 10 or so actually get to see the candidates debate. Nice.

This is a win for big money. Don’t we all wish all the candidates could get a fair shake on an even playing field through free media? That’s what the debates are all about. But some candidates would rather use one-sided big money advertisements to pummel the other candidates in a forum where they have no opportunity to respond.

This act of cowardice and this insult to the voters is all I needed to hear. Santorum has no chance of swaying my vote away from Newt now.

Now why doesn’t CNN reschedule the debate a few days earlier if the timing is such a problem?

They are playing into Obama’s hands.

The GOP elite is ready to lose with Mitt/PRick, rather than win with Newt, because they know he’s going to shake their but.s.

They torpedoed him once in 1997, when they were associated in the democrats’ cabal with baseless charges against the Speaker, otherwise Newt was going to win in 2000 instead of Bush.Jr
