I'm sorry but I get MLB's point 100%. Had this person been anyway pro-McCain, they would not have been allowed to host the debate. Talking about "character" in politics or news is just silly. Take a look at our current government, media and financial institutions. I go back, again, to this person not mentioning she printed a book which was pro-Obama while being vetted.

Her controversy did in fact influence the tone of the debate. I also thought she went easy on Palin in a few instances.

Quick...The goal should be neutrality for a single moderator or have two one from each party asking the candidates the question for fairness.

Fact is she should have been honest about her potential to profit from the outcome and someone else should have been chosen.

#1 Specify what tone she used.

#2 Nobody in the world is neutral about anything.

#3 Point out where she lied about her potential to profit from the outcome
of a book that hasn't been released

I believe I'm going to start calling you rubberman.
You love to stretch information to fit your own set of facts......

I am truly surprised by your stance on this matter.

#1 Her tone or performance does not change the fact that she should not have been chosen as the moderator of the ONLY VP debate to avoid any POSSIBLE conflict of interest.

#2 Having a personal opinion as a journalist is different than having a conflict of interest.

#3 She lied by omission by failing to disclose her conflict of interest.

Lastly, Her book had not been released yet but the title has and the book was set to be released on inauguration day when Obama was sworn into office...Thus the title of her soon to be released book.

BTW...Name calling does not suit you well. I suspect you know you've lost the argument.

OK smart arse

I never said she would be, said she could be and that had a person not mislead a committee she probably would not have been doing the debate. That said, I thought the moderator did a great job. But I hope you enjoyed trying to get a jab in

My apologizes sir;

Wasn't trying to be as you described. Just honestly asking a question.
