DEBATE MODERATOR ELAINE QUIJANO IS ADVOCATE FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS This election's presidential debates have their Candy Crowley. In the form of CBS' Elaine Quijano. Elaine Quijano was a very odd choice by CBS to moderate presidential debates. While other networks put forward major personalities with some level of respect, CBS put forward Elaine Quijano, who is on CBSN, is relatively young and known to fairly few people until today. Why did CBS decide to shake things up with Elaine Quijano? A look at her reporting makes that apparent. She's done a lot of pieces advocating for illegal aliens.
