If these Republicans are whining and saying that the CNBC moderators were infair and did not ask what they had prepped for - how the heck are they going to handle Putin?

Putin is not going to give his questions for approval 48 hours in advance and agree to a 67 degree room with bathroom breaks allowed.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I doubt Putin would ask questions about our proposed tax changes, building a wall on the Mexican border, or fantasy football picks.

On the other hand, he might be able to give Hilary and Sanders some advice on socialism and communism today, gun control, women's rights, email security and FREE education.

The question is NOT regarding the toughness of the questioning. It is about the validity of the questions and what do they have to do with the policies and issues that the candidates will face today and in the future.

I do not want to hear questions about what once candidate said about another. I do not want to hear questions about fantasy football. I don't care what the candidates think of abortion or gay marriage. That's already a moot point.

How about:

Unemployment
Economy
Illegal Immigration
Social Security
Obamacare
Terrorism
Foreign policy
National Security

Let the individual states worry about their civil unrest, marijuana laws, gay marriage, etc.

Let the individual states worry about gay marriage? Sorry to inform you that same sex marriage IS the law of the land already.

The states are taking care of marijuana issues already.

No, Putin is not going to be asking about immigration. The next President is going to have to think on her/his feet and answer the issues brought up immediately. Carson just does not have that experience and would be completely lost. Trump would try bluffing or bullying - which probably would be a bad idea.

Some of us just have to disagree with the highlight.
You do understand we now have a measuring stick called Obama to use as a basis. ANYBODY with an ounce more experience in ANYTHING is more qualified than he is, hence those currently running are all head and shoulders above Obama in the intelligence circle and much better equipped to be prepared and to respond.

And I place Clinton significantly lower than Obama where ever that bottom happens to be.

Quote from Governor Chris Christie “If you can’t take it, on the stage, no matter whether it’s fair or unfair, and I thought there was a lot of unfair stuff the other night–but if you can’t take it, then how are you going to take running against Hillary Clinton, how are you going to take negotiating for America around the world?” Quit whining !

I like Chris Christie he's a great show horse. so I am sure he said ïf you can't take it........" However, it was also Christie who too got fed up with the snarky questions Hardwood, et al were leveling told Hardwood at one point "even in New Jersey what you are doing would be considered rude."

The Republican debate underscored the the obvious liberal bias by the main street media. what you are witnessing now is the liberals surrounding the wagons again making claim that Republicans can't take it....while Clinton Sanders, et all sit there looking dumb fat and happy. Democratic candidates can skate because the main street media construct the necessary manner for such travel.

Don't know how tough, but they will at least show some intelligence. She is one smart lady.

Add Hannity, Levin, and Limbaugh. It would be a love fest of bashing Obama, Clinton(s), Kerry, et al. Hold it at the NRA headquarters and let the high fives begin. Don't forget, I think there are eight more debates. Plenty of frenzy time. Of course this may be wishful thinking on my part for a good show. Or is it?

The truth of the matter is Levin, Hannity Limbaugh, et al would not be needed if the main street media did they job honestly and ethically. Just one of the Obama scandals , you choose, would have been enough to drive him from office if the liberal media had a Bernstein or Woodward motivating enough to take down a Democrat as they were a Republican.

I guess we might as well disband DEA now that no one has enough respect for federal law to enforce it. When states disregard federal law (and the feds don't care) then what point is there for their existence?

You are entitled (another entitlement--FREE) to your opinion, but you have nothing to base your view on. Carson is probably a lot better on his feet than Obama, and if Obama is the litmus test, then anyone running is qualified and better experienced than the liberal messiah.

Hmmm.....no softballs, you think ? ALL the questions from her will be a lead in.......thats why Obama, Clinton and John Edwards refused to appear on FOX for a debate back in the 2008 cycle.

I have no doubt that Ms Maddow will do the Democratic party proud.

Guest 11-03-2015 06:49 PM

Let me understand this....

President Obama, once again mocks Republicans, this time for complaining about debate questions.

He has a short memory...he and Ms Clinton did not even show up for the 2007 debates on Fox !!!!
