Candy Crowley: ‘I’m not a fly on the wall’
POLITICO ^ | 15 Oct 2012 | By DYLAN BYERS

Posted on 10/15/2012 8:21:50 AM PDT by US Navy Vet

The town-hall debate is the one presidential faceoff in which the audience gets to ask the questions.

But don’t tell that to moderator Candy Crowley.

Like any journalist worthy of the assignment, Crowley concedes that the debate on Tuesday night isn’t about her, but she just as eagerly acknowledges her role in it.

I have no doubt MITT will handle any BS this toad tries to fling at him. THE FOREIGNER will lose if he tries doing a BIDEN.

I forgot to add, that Crowley’s job is also to anger Romney and try to get him to lose his cool, so that Obama won’t have to do it.

Romney needs to be conciliatory to Candy Crowley and say something like, “Candy, you are really hurting my feelings, with your interruptions, or your partisan questions about my veracity. I came here to debate the President, not you.”

Good one.

Also

“Obama said he created 5 million jobs. Problem is the jobs created are in China, zero jobs created in the U.S.A for 4 years of Obama”

This is the elephant woman’s response to Jim Lehrer quoted in the WSJ last week: “The moderator should be seen little and heard even less.”

Because the onus is on the challenger to prove he or she is a better alternative. Anyway, that's the answer you will usually get.

In reality, if the incumbent is a Republican, they are still in the role of the challenger. See Bush in 2004. Conventional wisdom at the time was that he would lose with the large number of undecideds because the undecideds always break for the challenger.

It didn't happen in 2004 for one reason only: Bush was perceived as the challenger because the media were lined up so solidly behind John Kerry.

Why did the GOP schmucks agree to all these Liberal hack moderators????

I can only guess but they are ALL part of this corrupt "Two-Party Cartel". No 3rd party candidates can get traction because they are forced out by this oligarchy.

I don’t think Mitt will lose his cool the way they think he will lose his cool. He’s a REAL lawyer unlike the twit that will be “debating” against. Bet he has a razor sharp tongue when he needs it AND unlike the twit, a brain to back it up.

Again, I ask the question: Why do “they” agree to do this stuff? Self-hatred? Someone getting paid under the table? What?

LOL. “x, y and z” for Candy are mashed potatoes, gravy and apple pie.

I thought it was candy, ice cream and pastries.
