Of course the debate will be on the nation's #1 issue. You know, Cain's "sexual harassment" issues.

Who care about debt, deficit, employment and occupied group. The #1 issue our nation facing is whether if Cain had sexually harassed his ex-employees.

This is either going to trigger a surge or complete downfall of the Ron Paul campaign, the Cain campaign and the Gingrich campaign. This is going to be a MAJOR debate that may end end some of the candidates chances to win the nomination.

Why? I bet more than half the country doesn't even know about it.

I hate these debates and dont waste my time watching them. The way they are run, its almost like a stupid game show with a stupid moderator.

Id rather something less formal, more engaging. More actual time for the candidates to really talk and give their views and points.

The moderators have to much play in all these and its just not fairly done

Since CNBC is moderating, do you expect the debate to have a business/jobs/economy theme? I would actually prefer a more focused debate. In fact, the next time we have a presidential election coming up, maybe all of the debates could each take a single theme. Imagine if they spent the entire debate talking about jobs. Then at the next debate, they spent the entire debate talking about foreign policy. Then another debate was spent entirely on taxes and the debt. Then another was spent on immigration. Then another was spent on government. And so on. Maybe the first one would be "introductory" as in this is who I am, this is what I've accomplished. Not only do I think it would be good for us but it would force the candidates to come up with a plan on each debate issue ahead of time.
