the cnn story drudge links to at least mentions the obvious fox bias
hopefully fox caves in and ron paul will get his rightful place in that forum

More free press than a silly debate would ever bring.

Right above Huckabee doing his audition for a role in Johnny Depp's new movie Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street http://www.apple.com/trailers/dreamworks/sweeneytodd/

Fox says,


The network said it had limited space in its studio -- a souped-up bus -- and that it invited candidates who had received double-digit support in recent polls.

How very convenient.

They are, but Paul already qualified.

Hunter & Keyes are out for the Republican debate - Biden, Todd, Kucinich, and Gravel are out for the Democrats (unless they qualify over the next few days).

IMO the ABC criteria are at least reasonable. They include anyone who meets any of several different cutoffs.

The exclusion is very noticable and it looks silly and biased right on the heels of record breaking fund raising. The public is seeing through this.

IMHO the MSM has absolutely no business running these debates. They do not report the news as much as shape it and mold opinions. Allowing people in the "debates" based on bogus polling is election trickery at its finest.

It`s way too early too exclude any candidate from the debates. These people piss me off.

It's his audition for a role as an extra in Johnny Depp's new movie, Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Seville.
