3 LIBERALS TO MODERATE 3 DEBATES...

Crowley (CNN), Lehrer (PBS) and Schieffer (CBS); all 3 are left of center east coast tv anchors........all 3 were negligent in vetting Obama in the 2008 campgain.................

Why TeamRomney gave the ok to these 3 moderators is troubling.

Where is the right of center moderator ???

they mod questions, not make them up off the top of their heads

1 question, 2 answers, both timed by the mod

bet youre scared shitless though ...

lol

So if the mods are nothing but 'question' people....why not put a right of center person on the panel?

And why is the Obama campgain lobbying the commission to exclude certain questions?

The deck is stacked, like it always is. Romney will have to play it well. He's not going to get a fair shake in the media. He can either whine about it, or deal with it. I'm surprised they don't have Ed Schultz and Rachel Maddow moderating these things.

The campgain can file a legimate arguement without "whining".....why give an adavantage away to the other side if you don't have to...........

20-25 predetermined questions are handed to the mod

the mod asks a question

the debate guidelines allow the candidates x amout of time to answer the questions

the mod keeps a clock on the candidates answers

its a televised event, there are timeframes that must be managed to insure every question fits into the alloted airtime of the program

tv correspondents have a wealth of experience managing airtime and handling the foremat that keeps the program/s on schedule


but lets not forget Obie made all of those rules all the way back to when Walter moderated debates in the 50's ?

Ok; if the process is so benign, why are ALL of the moderators from left of center news organizations ?

Where is the representation from right of center, say Lou Dobbs, Neil Cavuto, Chris Wallace, etc.

In the primary debates, the moderators were allowed to ask their own questions. Is that the same in the Presidential debates? And who gets to choose the questions handed to the moderator?

The Debates are a factor; look for the debate moderators to carry water for Obama.........

NBC announced they are doing a One Hour Documentary on the Mormon faith, to be aired before the elections...they asked Romney to participate, a sign they intend to make it political.....wonder how that happened ?

Where is the one hour show on Rev. Wright, or Obama's muslim faith ?

NBC has slotted time to do a show on Romney's Moromonism, not Obama's Islam or Liberation Christianity ! But they won't be covering most of the 1st day of the Republican National Convention...

Tell me the media fix for Obama isn't in.

all you need to know is what you believe regardless of the facts

its a leftwing conspiracy.

Deal with it

Romney will deal with it and SLAP a OpUNK down. Your own words, you did not VOTE for OpUNK in 08. Are you voting for him this year ,CBJ3.5?

seriously Iffie?
