Trump is kind of busy now preparing for more rallies with thousand of voters.

Even if he loses Iowa, he will have taken a principled stand for journalistic fairness and objectivity. The American people will remember.

Agreed. It takes a lot of guts to do this. For many years, we've been complaining here about how unfair the debates were to the Republicans. Always liberal media talking heads.

Would the Democrats ever submit to a debate that featured people like Rush Limbaugh and Mark Steyn as moderators? Of course not. Instead, Democrats get to stack the panel with their favorite sycophants and their softball questions. Last night's Democratic "debate" was a farce. Basically the candidates came out one at a time to take pre-scripted questions from the audience.

No doubt FoxNews were readying the sharp knives for Trump for Thursday night. I'm sure Trump would have survived it but why even bother? Trump does not need this debate. I'm sure that whatever else he decides to do Thursday night, it will draw a larger audience.

Now that’s funny right there.

I like Cruz however all the polls have given Trump the W for each of the 6 debates so far. Why would he be afraid to win #7. He isn’t Mom.

FOX is furiously re-writing the questions to attack Cruz instead of Trump. Probably teams working all night to find “gotcha” questions for him.

Wow! While his supporters will applaud this, I wonder how this will play in Iowa.

Tough to have a gotcha moment when you decide not to participate. The statement made by Fox New is unprecedented.

He is going to be in Iowa, raising money for Vets/Wounded Warriors. We are already pinging Daniel Scovino to get the fundraiser set up! That would be more fun anyway!

How many hours of debates have we had?

Ted Cruz just called the Mark Levin Show and challenged Trump to a one on one debate if Levin would allow the air time/ Levin agreed and said the challenge is there for Trump to accept or hide from.

An hour of Trumpisms will fail miserably. I'd love for it to happen, but I don't think Trump is that stupid.

No reason to attack me personally. I stated some observations shared by not only me, but many others. I get enough of personal attacks from liberals. Stay on the high road.

“You’e missing the point. This is one man standing up to the giant megalith MSM. Who else would do this? Who?

He could single-handedly change the media.”

And that is what is making him strong. He is changing the whole field of battle, while the also rans are running around, crying because their their count of spam and eggs is off.

“So the front runner is skipping the last debate before the first actual voting in this cycle because he believes one of the questioners is unfair to him.”

How about because Kelly is a nasty, malicious, despicable lump of dog crap, and it should make any decent person’s gorge rise to be in the same room with her?

Why should he let a slimy, intellectually deficient slug like her try to ambush him? I wouldn’t. Would you?

I just read your replies about Cruz saying he challenges Trump to a one-on-one debate. Now Cruz just has to call Donald and tell him that.

No he doesn't - Trump's already heard about the challenge. He can accept through any channel he wants.

Or more likely he'll ignore it.

So Cruz wants to jump on Trump's Merry Go Round?

Ain't that special.

Why should Trump give Ted access to all those folks.

Draw your own crowd Ted.
