I like to know the meaning of"passed on the opportunity to seize upon the fissures. " Would you rewrite it?
The seven contenders, standing onstage here for two hours in a prime-time televised debate, repeatedly passed on the opportunity to seize upon the fissures that have roiled the Republican Party for most of the last two years.

| It means they did not discuss the disagreements within the Republican Party. |
