For the first time, in a long time the Presidential Debates, a moderator actually sounded fair.
I think he really was trying to be fair, which is why the left is so annoyed. And obama was very annoyed when interrupted on his “professorial” remarks demanding 5 more seconds, and more.
While for the moment the consensus is that Romney won, he certainly did just stomp on the Moderator. Given the past complaints that Romney has acted like a bully, tonight’s performance will merely confirm this opinion in the minds of some. The question that needs to be answered is whether the Romney take no prisoners style is what would successfully run the government and international relations.
yep.
The blame Jime Lehrer meme is starting to grow with these leftist knuckleheads.
Gee maybe Obama can’t properly explain his record because it SUCKS! And has nothing to do with Jim Lehrer.
“Also on MSNBC, The Huffington Post’s Howard Fineman blasted Lehrer as “practically useless.”
“Jim Lehrer was practically useless as the moderator,” Fineman said. “It was criminal negligence not to follow up on the question — ‘Mr. Romney, specifically what tax loopholes or deductions do you want to get rid of?’ He didn’t ask it.””
Fineman is a particularly odious hack. This crying, whining tirade shows what a ultra-partisan dick he is. That being said, I do love the taste of his bitter tears.
I came to the end and thought that Lehrer was four-star. He could have controlled things better...I admit that part. And you can notice both candidates saying odd things but Lehrer allowed both to keep on going without going back to question the comment. I wouldn’t mind Lehrer doing all three debates.
