Was “Undecided” Questioner Catherine Fenton Former Media Coordinator of CodePink Long Island?
The Volokh Conspiracy ^ | 10/16/2012 | Jim Lindgren

How good was Gallup’s vetting of the questioners at the 2d Presidential debate held at Hofstra on Long Island?

One explicitly feminist question was asked by undecided voter Catherine Fenton:

And it’s Katherine Fenton, who has a question for you. QUESTION: In what new ways to [do] you intend to rectify the inequalities in the workplace, specifically regarding females making only 72 percent of what their male counterparts earn?

By a strange coincidence, there happens to be a Catherine Fenton who in 2008 identified herself as the Media Coordinator of CodePink Long Island.

She wasn’t the only lib plant there..how about the woman who said she was an “Undecided voter” but asked Romney that since “She is against Bush” she was wondering if Romney will be like Bush..the second that came out of her mouth my Mom said “Undecided voter my ass” LOL..doesn’t matter, Romney handled the question just fine..meanwhile, that lib should have asked Obama how come he pays women in his own Administration much less than men

I was particularly intrigued by the UPDATE: “Indeed, CNN admitted that almost all of the audience had voted for Obama in 2008.”

CON: They stacked the deck with liberals -— again.

PRO: If ALL these Obama voters are now truly UNDECIDED, Obama has REAL trouble!!!

Haha I saw that. Susan Katz. That name is familiar. Why?
Most of these questions were obviously lib plants.

I was waiting for someone to ask Barry how he will be any different than Jimmy Carter. I guess they forgot to ask that one.

I KNOW!! I was waiting for Romney to say “Mr. President, you enjoy bringing up President Bush and comparing him to me..let’s compare you to your buddy Jimmy Carter, you and him are both one in the same.”

“Indeed, CNN admitted that almost all of the audience had voted for Obama in 2008.”

Looking at this from another angle I imagine that it would be hard to find a McCain 2008 voter that would have a hard time deciding not to vote for Obama this election and thinking that Romney is the only viable alternative.

But I find it easy to imagine Obama voters being almost completely disgusted with Obama but not being convinced to vote for Romney.

They are not undecided. They are leftist infiltrator.

I would rather have debates moderated by Petunia the CNA from Missori that by these lying leftists.

And I would rather the audience be the gathering from a local truck stop. More honest, more real.

The debate moderator should be laughed out of the business. All conservatives should refuse to run her work, deny her access and refuse to attend shows or event where she is present. Freeze her out.

Apparently, debate questioner Susan Katz, who was interviewed on CNN this morning and states she’ll vote for Obama “again”, wasn’t listening to Gov. Romney’s answers. Her main complaint against Romney was that he seemed to just want to get his way. After Romney explained how well he worked as governor in a bi-partisan way with a 70% democratic legislature (fact checkable),and how he recruited more women to be in his cabinet than any other state. Could it be that Ms. Katz (a woman who claims she wants a leader willing to listen) was just another liberal plant in this skewed debate?
Why else would she conclude that this president, who pushed Obamacare through behind locked doors, barring all republicans, and has since shown open hostility toward “the enemy” (republicans) is a person who will listen to the other side?
