Crowley proved that two against one is not a good situation for fair and honest people.For a Party with a history of attracting presidential candidates notorious for their lack of debating skills, the RNC has introduced a "face saving" excuse so as not to highlight those embarrassing weaknesses in national debates!
So true ... there are many Right Wing talking-heads who are encouraging the RNC to ban Republicans from ALL debates - on the grounds that any Republican in a debate in dangerous to the Party's health.
We have a right to a fair playing field, same as anyone else. We don't need hypermanic assistance or resistance from someone who pledged neutrality as a journalist but rendered lockstep party favors in front of God and everybody to her choice for President.
She humiliated the journalism profession.
We're not having it again, and you can take that to the bank with you.
It's going to be fair, and that's that.
Oh brother...
Both parties agree to the moderators for all four debates. Nothing was forced on you by the Democrats.
Google the Commission on Presidential Debates if you don't believe me.
Crowley did no such thing and any sober view of the event would back that up. Romney lost because he sucked as a candidate. Several conservatives here said the same thing.
As for the primary debates, you can do whatever you wish with your partry. The only thing you're accomplishing however is that CNN will comment on whatever happens but you deprive yourself of being able to give the immediate opposing viewpoint. You've basically disqualified yourself from their viewership which, again, is your right to do so. It's a bizarre way to run a campaign when public relations is the basis for the entire enterprise.
