Crowley exhibiting her gravitas.
GOP candidates allow moderators that they know will be biased then act surprised when bias shows up in the debate. I really can’t feel much in the way of sympathy. Let them grow a bag and insist on a format that is fair instead of caving in again and again.
FFrankly she sounded like a little excited schoolgirl explaining this on CNN aafter the debate. Which part of “Presidential debate, do not take sides” did sshe not understand?
A professional journalist from CNN exhibits knee-jerk bias? This is my shocked face.

What a ditz.
So she is saying she cannot stop herself from completely biased, unprofessional actions. Usually that would get one a lot more leisure time and an opportunity to add to the unemployment numbers.
That’s why the RNC needs to be fired for agreeing to have every debate moderated by the Left. Were they drunk at the time???
TFB. Repubs agree to moderators that are to the left of Lenin. They then are in no position to bitch about the bias the mods show.
She reminds me of that official who took away the Green Bay Packers’ winning touchdown against Seattle.
CNN viewership is already at disastrously low levels. This should seal the fate of a once respectable news organization.
Hope some rich conservative swoops in to buy it.
DAMAGE DONE. Axelrod and Crowley performed brilliantly.
That interruption - on behalf of Obama - took away time from Mitt’s answer; not to mention ‘momentum’. So; in addition to the ‘three plus minutes more time; that was timed for Obama; they had better count this ‘time out’ from Mitt; thanks to Candy; who, in the end; gifted it to Mitt.
I watched the debate portion again and it is clear to me that it was a setup between Obama and Crowley. Romney has a chance in the next debate to ram it back down his throat.
President Romney will get the last laugh when Candy is allowed to travel on Air Force One in a dog carrier on the roof with the rest of the MSM.

Crowley said before the debate that she considered her assigned role, call on the audience and keep the time, to be beneath her. That she was going to assert herself into the debate. She sure did.
“So I knew that the president had, had, said, you know, these acts of terror won’t stand...”
Uhh, NO. The demonstrative “these” was NOT used. In fact, the demonstrative “this” was used by Obama on 9/12 only to refer to a response to an offensive video. “This senseless violence,” was the term, and the context was that offensive speech does not justify it.
In other words, on 9/12, Obama characterized the attack as a spontaneous reaction to the video.
The record speaks for itself. Carney, Rice, Clinton, and Obama tried for two weeks to deny it was terrorism.
How do people like Crowley, people so sloppy with the English language, ever make it to national television? You have to wonder what the standards are.
I have not looked at MSNBC on this, but I would guess they would defend Crowley, saying that Obama’s “No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation...” on Sept. 12 must have referred to the Benghazi attack.
But then after that, O and his minions kept talking about the notorious anti-muslim video (and Crowley agreed with Romney on that).
Maybe when he said “No acts of terror...” O was trying to have it both ways, both “respectful of muslim sensibilities” by being vague about what he meant, and also able to say he called it an “act of terror.”
