Candy Crowley intervened from the very first exchange, like a mother prompting her little boy who forgot his spiel or maybe doesn’t want to brag about his accomplishments.
The pattern was set: each candidate would give his answer to the (elementary) question, Candy would call on Barack and throw him some talking points, he would take the cue and do a little performance, and when Mitt Romney tried to do his rebuttal Candy would say that’s enough, let’s go to the next question.
This is a moderator? Why is there only one?
SNL could have a field day with this debate. Is it too much to hope?
>> This is a moderator? Why is there only one?
Uh, that stage may *look* sturdy, but with Cow-ley on it was *already* overloaded.
Well we all knew Candy would try to help Barry stutter through it and she did. Apparently he didn’t convince anyone except the base because Frank Luntz’s focus group were unmoved by Oblather’s performance. Most of them are going to vote Romney based on what they saw and heard.
did you notice how Romney was making points which whould hurt obama like fast and furious or his investments in China or Libya, then Crowley came int to rescue him but even more than that.
obama would raise his finger and say something and then Crowley came and butted in on behalf of obama.
Even the most ardent left wing kook cannot say that it was not biased.
Then there was obama’s wife clapping when Crowley butted in and stoped Romney over Libya.
It’s a waste of time her going on her network to a small crowd saying she got it wrong, most have no idea what she said then and what she needs to do is call herself a press conference and say I made a mistake Gov Romney was correct and I was wrong and the Pesident was wrong too as he did nto call it a terrorist attack.
I’m so frigging pissed off with this biased media, for 6 years they have been covering for their messiah, lying for him and now picking which questions are to be asked and then moderating what was supposed to be a debate but turned into a rude, arrogant display by obama and a debate which I would expect middle school would have.
