We have debated this over the coffee pot at work. It wouldn't surprise me, however I think he will ultimately have to do at least one, otherwise the other candidate will just call him a coward and he won't do that.

Anddddd the further down the rabbit hole we go, lack of non-bias in media continues to rear its ugly head. Trump (who should debate) can blame realistic unfairness in coverage just like actual Fake News provides cover for his fake Fake News.

Ahhh it is to reminisce to the days when Romney was going to kill 47% percent of the US with his Baine Capital Binders full of wimin...

Realistic unfairness thats funny.. you suggest he has done nothing to garner the attention he gets

I doubt he would debate with questions taken from a Hat or a computer . He would still wave the bias flag .

didn't he actually say he wouldn't care about 47% of Americans if he got elected. Think about that statement and what it means for the president to say that.

Oh he absolutely has done plenty of things to garner a sizeable amount of attention. Probably half the time it is justified. But he, like any other Republican, will not get a fair deal from the media. This is why we not have a Trump. Remember, Romney was going to be like Hitler, after the Bu#^&#^&#^&#^&ler of course, and now we have Trumphitler.

No, he said that 47% of the population were not going to vote for him no matter what because, his quote:

"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," Romney said in the video. "All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what."

But remember, he had binders full of women qualified to run various departments that were going to be part of his administration. But the media ran with that to cudgel him. And that he was going to steal everyone's money, make grandma homeless.

he said 47% americans would
vote for obama because they feel entitled to have the government take care of them, and they feel like
victims. it was a stupid comment. I don’t think he said he wouldn’t care about them. Romney was a good
guy, not very exciting, but not what you were told
he is either. They made a big deal
that he had resumes if i
pressure women in a notebook, for god’s sake.

Democrats can’t debate ideas anymore, all they have is personal

Jim it was Romney's responsibility to defend or explain that comment ... did you for get your distain for hilliarys deplorables comment. Did you forgive her explanation or accept her apology. She said it she owend it and the media reported it and the historical amnesia here is amazing

And they both paid for their mistakes

so what do you call the hugh percentage of Republicans who still to this day think Obama is a Muslim and born in Kenya w/o ever having the slightest bit of evidence? Aren't they deplorable? And didn't Hillary apologize for saying that? So there's a false equivalency between constantly using that and sitting quietly on your hands not saying anything about Trump's constant insults. Hipocracy at its finest.

I call them idiots, Paul. they’re idiots. I also don’t think it’s a HUGE percentage.

I’ll make my feelings known at the voting booth. I’m pretty sure throwing hissy fits on a fishing board’s political forum is not going to change the world.

Agreed. But there's a lot more to the GOP, than Trump. I watch CNN and MSNBC all the time. You rarely hear rigorous debate about the merits of each side's ideas. All you hear, is smear.

When liberalism has the track record it has, at least in terms of the economy, that explains why liberals don't want to talk about results and empirical evidence - because the evidence makes it very clear that their ideas are bad ideas. So they create a diversion by screaming racism with every breath,

I did. It was stupid, and he deserved to pay a political price for it. But his actions as governor, certainly show that's not what he really feels.

I have no problem commenting on your statements about his words. I don't see that you had anything to say, about the media painting him as a knuckle dragging sexist, for having a binder of resumes of talented women. Can't say anything bad about your side, just attack the other side.

but you posted because you thought I was uninformed. In fact you were = as you constantly are wrong. You show absolutely no intelligence here and instead try to annoy people like a 13 year old girl.

So you call them idiots and Hillary called them by another name. What's the difference? It was like 40%. Don't you think that's a huge percentage.

So don't continue to throw hissy-fits on this site if you don't want to.

I pointed out that I was correct and that your comment to my statement was in fact wrong because you left out the most important part. So maybe that's why he didn't win the election that he didn't think he had to care about almost half of The Americans. I suppose you're going to throw out one of your classless insults that I'm foaming at the mouth. When in fact that's what you do constantly.
