Did you watch how the debate “funtioned”?
I can’t remember for sure if Romney was given a chance to rebutt what O said that this writer is complaining about.
I’m not saying he was or wasn’t, but I recall several points in the debate where, after a limited back-and-forth, all of a sudden the moderator decided they had had enough of that topic, due to time or desire to address a different topic, and just cut it off right there.
I was listening to the debate on the radio, and working at the same time, so, again, not sure, but that could easily have been one of the times she kept Romney from responding to Obama’s lie or gaffe.
And had she chosen to, she could have asked O a follow-up about this statement...she asked follow-ups at times of her choice.
The statement WAS crazy. It begged to be addressed. I’m thinking there’s a reason why it WASN’T. Blaming Romney, until I know for sure what happened, is a bridge too far.
