Barack Obama Mocked Republicans for GOP Debate Demands. He Forgot to Mention

“And they’re so glum”, Obama said in mock chagrin, “They’re really so frustrated”. “As long as the rules are established and everybody plays by the rules, I’ll be OK”. The New Jersey governor was one of the first to criticize the letter, and if his campaign produces nothing else of note, his words to Fox’s Megyn Kelly on the subject will endure.

“If you go to 100 doctors and 99 of them tell you, ‘You’ve got diabetes, you’ve got to stop eating bacon and donuts every day …'” I’ve enjoyed the debates. Agree or disagree with the candidates on the Democratic side, after the Democratic Primary debate we were left questioning substantive policy issues.

Arizona Senator John McCain thinks this year’s Republican presidential candidates need to “man up” and be less picky about their demands for televised national debates. “They are just not our boss”.

Cruz asked on the show: “Why is it that we have Republican primary debates that are moderated by liberal Democrats?”

Debate moderators are the closest that most will ever come to directly interacting with all of the presidential candidates at once.

Several Republican campaigns have expressed concern that the RNC had not negotiated effectively on their behalf with the networks.

In the aftermath of last week’s controversial CNBC debate, The Donald has vowed to negotiate his own debate terms aside from the other candidates. Carson stated that he “would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation”.

“I don’t really care that much”, Trump said.

“Then it turns out they can’t handle a bunch of CNBC moderators at the debate”, he added.

“Good luck with that”, she said to Fox News’ Chris Stirewalt.

A draft copy, which was circulated among the candidates Monday, includes a number of diva-esque demands, ranging from banning “gotcha questions”, keeping the temperature on the stage below 67 degrees and allowing at least one bathroom break. Carson also asked his fellow GOP contenders to pledge their support. According to the AP, Ben Carson’s campaign manager Barry Bennett hosted representatives from the majority of the GOP field for a friendly discussion on what to demand in future debates.
