I’m afraid that getting 1% in several polls does tend to make you a B-List Candidate. Sorry about that.
“Six months before a single primary vote is cast, Fox News and the RNC are making a historic move — they have decided to make the decision for the voters and arbitrarily limit the GOP field to ten. “
Actually, all will debate. The top ten at 8 PM, the rest at 5 PM.
I frankly believe that 10 on the stage at one time is too many but that is life.
Agree
I agree. Even with limiting it to 10, there will be too much “noise” and not enough substance.
When is the debate (date)?
Fox News and the GOPe are one in the same.
The author is in idiot if he thinks Fiorina would be better off campaigning in primary states rather than getting free national exposure by participating in the 5 pm debate.
Yes. So many of them have no business running. Why have them dilute attention from those that actually have a chance? 10 is still a very high #, over half the field.
Well, hopefully their second tier forum will be adequate. She can shine there and still move up. I would prefer two equal forums, but I will wait and see. Maybe it will be fair enough. In the age of the Internet it is not as hard to get your message out as it used to be. Someone should set up a website that actually posts video answers to questions and speeches from all the candidates. They could even have an ongoing online debate that stretches out over time. We have many options these days.
Thursday.
That’s a good picture of her, btw.
Whoever is perceived to have “won” the second tier debate may have gained more round than if they had participated in the first tier.
I would never publish a photo like that.
The strong jaw line there, the under the chin shot, her mouth caught in that position, it’s a very unflattering shot.
It may reveal a character or something like that moment for you, but it isn’t a photo I’d pick for someone I supported.
I wouldn’t post a photo of that for someone I didn’t like.
Carly? HP fired you for destroying HP and American jobs, the polls show no change in your stature. No one needs a woman affirmative action candidate, which is the only way you get any mention whatsoever. You have ZERO chance of winning. Trump wasn’t involved, but the Your Fired was pretty clear and permanent.
I see what you mean. I am comparing it to other photos of her I’ve seen. She looks younger and very fit in that picture. It is an action picture and not a traditional posed for picture. So the angle and all that doesn’t bother me. I’m used to thinking in terms of video angles rather than photo angles.
Shooting up on a person is a big no-no generally. It makes most people look fat. Not Carly. I don’t know. I like it.
I can understand where you’re coming from.
I appreciate the response. Take care.
There should be 2 debates. What am I missing?
Never mind
For candidates without a lot of support, the "B List" debate is giving them an opportunity to shine. The later debate is going to be all about the others trying to take down Trump. The early one will give the participants an opportunity to get their views out there and show if they're at all presidential.
