Former first lady Nancy Reagan announced plans Thursday to invite the leading Republican contenders to the first debate of the presidential primary season, to be held at her late husband’s presidential library and co-hosted by POLITICO and NBC News.

The debate, sponsored by the Reagan Presidential Foundation, will be held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, Calif., during the spring of 2011. NBC News will serve as the television partner for the debate while POLITICO is the online content partner.

Sigh.  First attempt by Obama lapdogs to make Republicans look like idiots.

Fixed it for ya

I can say that anyone participating in this debate has too much time on their hands and I don't support em.

I am curious as to Mrs. Reagan's participation in this "debate." I can certainly see and heartily approve of hosting a "roundtable"-like meeting, where republicans can discuss issues, especially with the Tea Party controlling the direction of the House debates 90 days into the congress. But a "presidential debate" is not worthy of consideration.

The ONLY thing this will do is to allow the Networks to do the damned if you do, damned if you don't analysis of the "debate," particularly with Sarah Palin's attendance/non-attendance of the event. To that end, I hope the people doing the event know what they are doing.

Put it here since it really doesn't justify making its own thread:
