4th Time's a Charm?

    As the third presidential debate came to an end last night, Candy Crowley followed the paths of Martha Raddatz and Jim Lehrer. All three moderators have had trouble keeping the candidates in line as they debate their way to presidency. The first debate was moderated by Jim Lehrer and many were upset with him for not intervening and letting the Governor and President "run" the debate. Conservatives were upset with Martha Raddatz as she has had previous connections with Obama and last night, According to the Washington Post, "Republicans pilloried moderator Candy Crowley for her attempted litigation of who was right and who was wrong when it came to how and when the White House had labeled the Benghazi attack in its immediate aftermath."To read more, click here. 

   Why is it that all three moderators have had issues on controlling the debate? Some say it is virtually impossible to be a moderator. When I was watching the debates I noticed that the candidates would answer the questions they wanted to answer, and not the questions that they were asked. Also, they ignored the alloted time they were given and spoke on their own terms. Do you think that people should be focusing so much on how the moderators do? Or should we just focus on what the candidates say and ignore the moderators performances? 

Mitt Romney: In it to Win it

    I am not one to get into politics much. On Wednesday night I was flipping through channels and turned the debate on because some of my favorite comedy sitcoms were not on. Immediately, I was intrigued and watched the whole debate. In the past Romney hasn't had the best rep for public speeches. A lightbulb switch went off on Wednesday as Romney spoke with confidence and power. He stood his ground the whole night, as Obama took a more "cautious" approach, which wasn't the best game plan.
     After the debate, a CBS poll of 523 uncommitted voters were in favor of Romney  with 46% to Obama with 22%. (The rest thought it was a tie).

All comments are appreciated and welcomed. Watch the video to see highlights of the debate.
