RNC changing primary rules

[Quantum Windbag]

For entertainment purposes, all moderators should have to be subject to a conservative means testing so that only real conservatives get to question the candidates.

I, for one, would love to see Anne Coulter as a moderator.

That would be fun. Seeing someone like McCaid defending his statist policies in response to a direct question would definitely liven up the debate.

I assume this marks the end of the clown car festivities?

One proposal being weighed by the RNC members would involve sanctioning a small handful of debates while penalizing candidates who participate in any nonsanctioned GOP debate by stripping them of one-third of their delegates to the national convention.

There is also a "heavy appetite" to have a say over which journalists should be allowed to moderate the debates, said one Republican familiar with the ongoing discussions.

"There is a definitely a consensus for Reince's objective to have less debates and have control over how and who we have run our debates, rather than just turning it over to X, Y or Z network and having a guy moderate who's going to just dog you for two hours," said the Republican, who requested anonymity to discuss the sensitive and not-yet-finalized rules changes.

Calendar changes approved by the subcommittee must then be ratified by the RNC's Standing Committee on Rules, a vote that could take place as early as January at the RNC's winter meeting in Washington. If approved by the rules committee, the full 168-member RNC must vote on the calendar changes sometime before next summer.

This is a promising start.

It's window dressing until the republicans abandon their obsession with Trickle Down Economics.

Across the board tax cuts don't create jobs, they create fat bank accounts in the Caymans.

It is designed to shut the people who advocate social liberalism and a balanced budget out of the debate. In other words, it reinforces everyone you claim to hate.

The fat bank accounts come from the convoluted progressive tax code favored by idiots that think tax cuts cause deficits.

Wait, that is you, isn't it?

I honestly can't see how this kind of rule is going to hold up.

It worked for the Democrats, didn't it? Without it we wouldn't have a black president.

Democrats did nothing comparable.
