"If you’re running for President of the United States and you can’t handle yourself against three CNBC moderators without, you know, crying foul and calling for intervention, then you’re not gonna do very well against Vladimir Putin either. So I’m not going to complain about it."
Well said, Governor Christie. I couldn't agree more.
I didn't realize they were debating Vlad. I thought the debates were to learn more about each candidate an how they would handle finances, not fantasy football.
Sean Hannity and Laura Ingram would never be taken seriously by anyone other than the tea party base of the GOP. Dems think Hannity is a joke.
It would be like Al Sharpton and Rachel Maddow moderating a GOP debate.
I have a feeling that even if Hannity, Ingram, O'Reilly or even Trump and Carson's wives were the moderators Trump and Carson would still complain they were treated unfairly by the moderators
They just don't like debates. They are afraid the American public will see how unprepared they are. They are afraid of the other 7 candidates who can actually answer policy questions.
I say let them choose their moderators. They will make bigger fools of themselves
Even a broken clock is correct twice a day. Christie being right on this doesn't make up for how much he wrong on so much else.
Oh, I agree, and he did his fair share of whining during the debate. But he's the only one in the aftermath who pointed out how if they can't stand up to a few debate monitors, how the hell will they stand up to hostile world leaders, which is an entirely valid point.

Well they would. Prime example is that they didn't wike the Fox Moderators either. Those big ole meanies.

Trump did as well commenting that whining about tough questions at the debates could make Republicans appear weak. It does.

Putin has manners.
I thought the agreement was the candidates would each get opening statements not "What's your crappiest most loathsome disgusting and heinous weakness you filthy rotten Creature from the Black Lagoon who only entered the GOP race to practice your reptilian moves on poor tearful innocent hungry desperate enslaved suicidal women and children?"
I was waiting for, "Everybody who kicks their dog, please raise your hand?"

This post is a perfect example of the drama queen whining of Republicans. Thanks for the illustration, Laura!
I've only answered that same question at least 20 times.
My candidate complained the least. You may think his bid to limit the debate to two hours was because he can't stand that long. You and everyone else who thinks that would be wrong. I'm willing to bet $5 in fake money that his move to limit the debate time to 2 hours was to take more exposure time away from other candidates. He doesn't need it. It's a tactic, plain and simple.
