I'm just saying, there's a nonzero chance Trump has a really toad penis.

I don't know if being in the kiddie table debate is such a bad thing. Polling companies will start to drop a lot of those candidates but the person who wins that debate will likely get a sizeable boost to hang in a little while longer I would think.

Instead of bingo, people should assign points to talking points and gaffs to tabulate afterwards so we'll see who really wins these debates.

Assuming Trump has hit his ceiling, supporters of Perry, Santorum, and Jindal would go to Walker, while Bush would pick up the Fiorina, Graham, Pataki, and Gilmore voters, right? Though I guess the Santorum voters could go to Huck as well.

So far we have had Jeb saying :

Everyone needs to work longer hours
Wants to phase out medicare
Not wanting to spend 500 million on women's health

Anything I have missed? This guy is worse that Mitt :lol:

If Fox News was actively selecting candidates based on judgement and prior accomplishments, instead of concrete polling data from voters, they would be actively choosing winners and losers.

What happens next cycle when there are 50 Republican candidates spending money campaigning and claiming full legitimacy?

If Trump is that far ahead of everyone else just simply putting him in the middle seems unsatisfactory. Give Trump a gold-plated podium to stand at.
