CNN: Bachmann Won't Participate In Trump's Debate

CNN is reporting that Michele Bachmann will not participate in Donald Trump’s debate. That leaves Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich as the sole debate participants.

1. "That leaves Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich as the sole debate participants."

:rofl:

2. Wonder if Santorum will be the next to drop out? n/t

[Inuca]

3. SO Newt may actually

have the Lincoln-Douglas type debate he seems to yearn for, or something... In a slightly more rational world, having accepted to participate, should result in Gingirich being automatically disqualified from being ever considered a "serious candidate"

4. So I'm guessing the circus act won't actually happen?

Newt can claim victory, saying the rest are all scared to debate him. But really, what's the point of having it if nobody shows up?

And who is going to televise it with only those two participants?

5. Hmmmm?

"That leaves Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich as the sole debate participants."
