You guys crack me up......

The debate will only show that Paul gets little crumbs off the table and he won't get to answer the questions!!!! He'll just get more about the war and they'll skip the domestic agenda....Ghoul, Romney, Huck, McCain will all get 3 to 5 times more time and questions!!!

then everyone is going to come back here crying about how they are not "fair" but that Paul won the debate!!

Go out and buy a decent rifle folks. that's the only thing that will secure your God given Liberty from tyrants......it will be a cold day in Hell when Fox news will attempt to do it for you.

Is Keyes gonna be there ? God knows if he is, then Paul gets bumped down even more!

Is Keyes gonna be there ? God knows if he is, then Paul gets bumped down even more!

No; Keyes didn't qualify under the standards created to keep Keyes out of the debate (polling numbers).

Everyone else, however, did qualify, meaning that the line-up is:

Ron Paul
Tom Tancredo
Mike Huckabee
Rudy Giuliani
Fred Thompson
John McCain
Willard Romney
Duncan Hunter

They'll never let him answer the same questions as Rudy, no domestic questions, no inflation questions, nothing. Its Ice Ron Paul chapter three, last time it took 35 minutes to acknowledge him, I hope the crowd in Florida is more impatient and less courteous than in NH. Yet, they let that airhead Thompson bloviate all night long. WTF is McCain doing even on the stage, he gets aging veterans to support him because he was a POW, yet says nothing but Bomb, Islamofacism and"my Friends". HUnter? Who is paying his freight? I hope the audience as vocal as hell.

Ron Paul
Tom Tancredo
Mike Huckabee
Rudy Giuliani
Fred Thompson
John McCain
Willard Romney
Duncan Hunter

Let's make a game out of it and see how good we've gotten at figuring it out...

Odds of Paul getting middle 4 podiums (1,000,000,000 to 1)
Odds of Paul being at the 2 extreme podums (1 to 2)

In terms of most minutes and questions, I'll say:

Rudy
Romney
Thompson
Huckabee
McCain
Paul
Hunter
Tancredo

And to add something to this, which of Frudy McRomney will try to attack Paul tonight ? I go with Huckabee.

Any ideas on the format of the debate ?

last debate, stats majors please, are not the odds of McCain,Romney,Ghouls landing next to eachother in that order something like 8x7x6 to 1 or 336-1? Tonights will include Thompson so 8x7x6x5 to 1 or 1680-1. Its like picking a superfecta for christs sake and FOX says it was a drawing? It'll be McCain,Romney,Thompson,Ghouls from right to left. I wish I could wager with interbet.

What are the chances of Wendell Goler misstating one of RP s positions yet again ? Brit Hume acting like a pompous ass ? Someone asking Ghouliani to sing ? Oh wait, Chris Matthews isn't around for this one, so I think we're in the clear here.

Brit Hume is directing, while Wendell Goler and Chris Wallace do the commentary and Carl Cameron serves as the dutiful sideline reporter.

Johnnybags
10-21-2007, 12:37 PM
his supporters sent him to or a sideshow? He has to say something at some point. I hope Tancredo does as well. Romney will have to start attacking Ghouls though at some point. That'll be well worth seeing. If I was Paul and Wallace asked one of those winded questions on department cutting, I'd say, pick one for me Chris, time does not allow me to answer for all of them so I will tell about the department of education first. Give me more time or a follow up and I'll answer the rest.

Overall the Fox News Debates have been alot fairer to Ron than the others in which Frudy McRomney turned up.

Tempting fate , i know :(

I'm surprised they dug up the stuff on Paul regarding the FBI/CIA. Even I was unaware of those comments. Wondering what they'll throw his way this time

I’m a big fan of the FOX debates. You’ll notice that the two previous Fox debates are where he had his confrontations with Giuliani and Huckabee respectively. And FOX did cover these moments as highlights of the debate. Mind you, they tried to spin them as a favorable moment for Giuliani and Huckabee, but these two debates were still the ones where Ron Paul came off the best, I personally think. Needless to say, I'm hoping someone takes issue with one of Ron's statements tonight.:)

I wish I could wager with interbet.

The odds are actually 1 in 66 of those three landing together in that order somewhere in the lineup, assuming 8 people in the debate.

The odds are 1 in 1680 that McCain will be in the #3 podium, Romney will be in the #4, Thompson will be in the #5, and Ghouls will be in the #6 exactly.

What's more interesting is the proposition that #3-6 will be occupied by Frudy McRomney. There are 24 different permutations of putting those 4 in those 4 spots. That makes the odds 1 in 70 that those four will be there in some order.

Anyone willing to put up $700 against my $10 that this is how it will shake out???
