Probably, but I think it'll be because most of the GOP candidates will have dropped out by Labor Day.

This isn't too bad-- they included Kucinich, and Obama's not there. Could you imagine a Giuliani/McCain/Paul debate?

I dream of that every day. It always ends the same way: Giuliani screaming, "They, 9/11, hate, September 11, us, terror, for, trying to kill you, our, 9/11, freedoms!" And everyone still cheers for him.

I would pay a WHOLE lot of money to see that.

There's only one word to describe Paul on stage with two other republicans (or democrats, for that matter):

Yeah, me too, but they'll never allow it. Come on, DK can't debate his way out of a paper towel. They'd have to be crazy to debate RP. They'll put Huckabee in there.

Gravel would be the dangerous one for the Dems to bring out. You won't see him in a small forum like this. Kucinich isn't harmful.

Probably. This is what I can imagine happening:

A network decides to hold 3 small GOP debates with 3 candidates at each, randomly selected (that way all candidates might agree).

The network "randomly selects" Ron Paul to be in the same debate as Rudy (they have an incentive to do this, because there would be fireworks).

Problem is that they wouldn't pick them randomly. They'd take the three "frontrunners" which they would define somehow not to include Ron Paul. Look at the short history of the MSM ignoring this campaign, and you cannot argue otherwise.

Billary and Edwards are fluff, no substance, Dennis wil come on top, be careful what you ask for you might just get it.
