Seriously? Moderator of Second Presidential Debate Served as an Intern for Joe Biden
PJ Media ^ | October 1, 2020 | Stephen Green

Posted on 10/01/2020 1:35:03 PM PDT by gattaca

C-SPAN’s Steve Scully, who will moderate the second presidential debate, got his start as a staff assistant in Sen. Ted Kennedy’s communication office, and prior to that worked as in intern in the office of then-senator Joe Biden.

The second presidential debate is scheduled for October 15, just two weeks from now.

Scully’s complete work and education records — both impressive — can be found here on his page at George Washington University’s School of Media and Public Affairs.

You might know Scully as the guy who handles C-SPAN’s open phone lines, a job he handles affably and with grace.

Scully is generally well-regarded in Washington and in the media, but out here where I am in flyover country, he may at least be seen as too chummy with Democrats to serve as an honest broker for the second presidential debate.

They should just have Jill be the moderator at this point.

I’d rather have her ex husband.

Either Rush Limbaugh moderates, or the president spends an hour telling truth about various demonrats.

He worked for Biden & Kennedy but it was only two years total back in the 1970s.

I know the feeling, I voted for McGovern in 1972. My civics teacher was the local organizer for McGovern, I helped out a bit in exchange for receiving extra credit.

I was pissed at Ford for pardoning Nixon, that's why I still voted for McGovern...lesson learned. I had a falling out with that teacher, because I accepted an ROTC scholarship. He voiced his "disappointment" in me for accepting that scholarship.

I grew up fast after college, the Army will do that for you. Voted proudly for Reagan in 80/84.

“Either Rush Limbaugh moderates...”

Limbaugh is physically incapable of moderating a debate.

“No, Not Trump, Not Ever”

That's the title of the David Frum piece he's tweeting out, not his personal opinion.

Scully's solid.

Why do we accept this? The last debate was a disgrace to the nation and totally embarrassing. My new voter kid was even appalled.

...... I’m sure Steve Scully and the Biden campaign will work together to come up with a well written script for the next debate ......

Or he’s a long time supporter of Biden & despises Trump as his social media says.
He’ll do everything he can to sabotage Trump IMO.

Trump has to accept these guys because Biden was looking for any excuse to avoid the “debates.”
