I thought it was the best moderated Presidential debate in the last 40 years. Like a good referee in a boxing match, the moderator should be almost invisible letting the combatants go after one another. The debate is about the participants and their views, not the moderator. The public got an unfiltered look at Romney and Obama. Now the libs and their MSM allies are upset that the emperor has no clothes.

I agree. If it were not for all the Lefty whining, nobody would remember this morning who the moderator was last night. That is as it should be.

Lehrer did not use the opportunity to promote himself. He gave the general topics, kept time (more or less) and kept the crowd out of it. Except for the one "Balanced Approach" lifeline to Obama, he played it right down the middle.

Exactly right! The media & dems are in a hysterical panic stricken mode, because of 0dumb0's dismal, lackluster performance, and they are trying to shift the blame onto Jim Lehrer. In reality, Jim Lehrer tried to tilt the debate in favor of 0dumb0 and got called out by Romney on it (On the first topic 0dumb0 answered 3 times and Romney only twice. When Lehrer tried to shift to another topic, Romney hit back hard....."He answered first, I get to finish").

Otherwise, I think that Lehrer did a good job, which is to direct the debate to the next main topic, but otherwise let the candidates in essence debate each other. 0dumb0 just plain sucked, which is why the lefties are hysterical & deranged this morning.

I love listening to the meltdown by Chrissy (Tingle) Matthews, in fact all the leftie retards are in full meltdown & blame mode this morning. Love it!!!
