Fox Biz Jan 14 Debate Criteria - Top 6 National or Top 5 in IA/NH

[Cruzcrew]

Rand Paul announced he would not participate in the undercard debate but I'm hoping that he somehow makes it to the national debates as he's an important voice to have: foreign policy and spending wise. His path to the debates is A: Carson collapses nationally just in time for the 5 last national polls B: Jeb declines about 2% nationally C: Jeb declines about 1 or 2% in iowa.

Is the CNN poll included

Does anyone know when the next poll comes out that's recognized by FOX?

Rand endorsing kasich or CHRISTIE? Keep dreaming. He'd probably endorse carson then cruz.

Let's play a game: which is more BS?

A) How Rand just had his best debate and now is out.

or

B) How he was beat out by not only 2 people with as much political experience as me, but also 3 different unlikable moderate governors!

Either way, this is just another example of how far outside the overton window I am, that all of these assorted warmongers and wackos were chosen above the only palatable (to me) candidate in the race.

Hey, I've said it before (I think) and I might say it again: statism sells.

And it's another effect of how Rand really hasn't done well enough in his campaign. I like him, and agree with most of his positions, but, I'm afraid he's just not a natural politician. Those three guys in the middle are simply better at the sport of politics than Rand is (but I'm sure they aren't as good as doctors).

Somehow Jeb Bush is ahead of him in Iowa which i call bs on. I think students for Rand gets him at least 6%. And unfortunately he didn't a natural politician. One of the hardest things to run on is consistently cutting government.

It would be interesting if Fiorina dropped out of the JV debate, leaving Huckabee and Santorum to debate one-on-one.

There wouldn't be much of a debate then

If the DMR poll were counted, Rand and bush would be tied for fifth at 4.4% in Iowa.
