Are Jindal and Fiorina in? What about Graham?

Are Jindal and Fiorina in? What about Graham?

I'm assuming not (except for Fiorina). Did they go up in the polls?

I was surprised that there was a junior debate last time. I had been under the impression that they would only do that twice. So the question is did Christie and Huckabee just drop to the baby pool, or are they out of the debates unless/until they rise in the polls again?

More details please. Is the main stage still going to hold 10?

Edit- I googled details. Just 8 this time

The eight candidates chosen for the main debate by Fox Business' polling criteria were billionaire businessman Donald Trump, who ranked first, followed by retired physician Ben Carson, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, Texas Senator Ted Cruz, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, former business executive Carly Fiorina, Ohio Governor John Kasich and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul.

Pataki, Graham ,Huckabee, Christie, and Paul need to
look in the mirror and then drop out of the race.

I don't disagree but I think Christie would be a formidable candidate if the field wasn't so crowded.

Huck had some good stuff at the last debate. Sad he can't be a part of the conversation.

Not news.

Christie should run as a dem

 

[MitchL]

I don't disagree but I think Christie would be a formidable candidate if the field wasn't so crowded.

Except many Republicans still partially blame him for helping Mitt lose when Christie praised Obama after "Sandy". So he has/had a ceiling.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

I blame him for making out with obama and holding hands with him

Paul has no business on the stage. He has zero chance of winning the nomination, he won't be a part of a Republican administration, and he may just wind up losing a perfectly reliable seat in the Senate.

He's just the only real Republican in the entire group.

Why is Kasich not a "real Republican"?

 

[binsfeldcyhawk2]

Kasich is the only candidate I could vote for from that group.....

The Obama hug doomed him w the crazy Rs that vote in primaries.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Why is Kasich not a "real Republican"?

because he's a democrat

 

[stillh8unlv]

because he's a democrat

Exibit A why it will be President Hillary next Nov

 

[ottumwan in tx]

The Obama hug doomed him w the crazy Rs that vote in primaries.

when he made out with Obama on the beach and they strolled hand in hand, I thought, "there's the next dem nominee right there, that guy could destroy Hillary..."
