End of Primary Debates May Be in Sight

[SecularMotion]

And, just like that, the seemingly endless series of Republican presidential debates may finally be grinding to a halt.

On Thursday, Mitt Romney‘s campaign announced that they had no plans to participate in a March 1 debate in Atlanta, sponsored by CNN and the Georgia Republican Party. The news was first reported by CBS News/National Journal.

In an e-mail, the Romney campaign said that they were unable to make the debate because of scheduling demands before the series of primaries and caucuses on March 6, known as Super Tuesday.

1. Oh, what a pity

If they keep having debates, they will turn off more and more prospective GOP voters.

Keep on yapping, fellas!

2. I'm afraid that they'll never do it again.

Next time it will all be brokered in a back room.

3. And why should they debate. Every time any one of them says anything it just makes them

look more foolish. What will be interesting will be when the winner of the one dollar = one vote contest has to sit on the other side of the table and debate Obama. Do you remember the Abbot and Costello 'who's on first' routine? Even the comic genius that came up with that won't be able to top that debate. Hint; Obama won't even work up a sweat.

4. I KNOW you're right...but...

I remember feeling the exact same way in 2000. No way Bush can win, Gore will embarrass him in the debates, who could possibly vote for this weasel, etc...

5. Haiting to sound produish but,,, This is why we need to stick togther. When the time comes

get the hell out and vote. If you follow forums inhabited by our 'red footed' friends it's clear. Anyone but Obama. It dosen't matter if the front runner would bring about a theoracratcy. He's not Obama. It doesn't matter that the chosen one's clame to fame was breaking up American compines and selling off the remains to forighen bidders; he's a good buisnes man and he's not Obama.
And yes they can win.
Is that the world you want you're children to grow up in?

7. Excellent point. And let's not forget what they did to John Kerry.

The Swift Boat BS was absolutely sickening. To tell those kinds of lies about a hero (and the lies only need to put a small doubt in peoples minds to be effective) was despicable, and the assholes who dreamed that up will surely be trying to find lies about President Obama that will give voters a reason to at least momentarily reconsider their choice.

6. Rmoney is toast

and he knows it. Especially if he gets in front of another debate crowd where, as real as cnn can ask, real questions are asked.

I don't know who coined "the Clown Car" but whoever did should get 72 virgins, hell make that 108 virgins when they get to heaven for calling that pukie crew what it is so quick.
