     This is not a debate.  It is a GOP Establishment controlled forum that is trying to push Jeb Bush and/or Marco Rubio to the nomination.  The moderators are fools, the audience members are shills.

Weak moderation makes them prey for the candidates to become predators. Plus, the questions do not make sense or address issues.

It must be compared to tne "Bull)&^$" the moderators injected in debate #1.

I prefer the exising mayhem and free-for-all over the debate 1 platform.

However, the point of your question, "Is Don wearing out his welcome?"

Yes.

I do not think it is a lack of moderation but a plan by that network to ask questions to bring about the bickering. The network wants chaos. I WANT to heat what they will do to solve a variety of issues. I DO NOT want to hear how bad the other guy/girl is, we already know that if we are paying attention. I want the good ones to be able to shine.
