CBSNews web stream: The debate last .... could have .... but the CBSNews .... in and out .... could actually hear .... responses the candidates .... question.

It reminded me of Rush’s hearing assistance commercial where he reads every other word.

CBSNews blew it. First by dropping the tv broadcast of the debate to web streaming for the final half-hour. Second by having a pathetic streaming quality.

Most of the candidates did pretty good. They seemed very knowledgeable of foreign policy. At least none of the moderators ask a stupid gotcha question, such as ‘who is the Agricultural Minister of Papua?’

None shot themselves in the foot, but one of them should have shot Scott Pelley. He was a horrible moderator. He kept interrupting, constantly complained about the respondents using too much time, and tried to be argumentative with the respondents. He tried at one point to get one of the candidates to diss another, but that candidate didn’t fall for it.

Pelley also dominated the questioning. Major Garrett did get to ask a few questions. In the half-hour stream, Senators Graham and Demint were supposed to ask questions. If they did, it was only a couple of questions. I missed them because my stream was cutting in and out. By the time the stream seemed stable, Pelley was again the only one asking questions.

Pelley reminded me a lot of the Money Honey (Maria Bartiromo), earlier in the week. Both were clearly were out of their league. Pelly is a card carrying lib.IMHO, not so much for the money honey.

Perry did a really good job at the debate last night. Be interesting to see if that along with his recent media charm offensive can revive his campaign.

Major Garrett, whom i always admired and thought was quite fair in his reporting, has joined in with the National Journal liberal, left-wing, Obama, Democrat Party “dirt bags”!!! Sad!!! Because Garrett was an honest, fair and objective reporter when he was with FNC, in fact, one of the best at FNC. Of course, the entire FNC has jumped the shark lately and gone over to the “Obama Dark Side”!!! The unabashed Fox News Network of treating Herman Cain as “Guilty Until Proven Innocent” has really ticked me off, especially with the comments from the Fox & Friends traitors, both during the weekend and worse on weekends. Of course Geraldo & Shep Smith always lick the boots of failed POTUS Obama and his “Destroy America Democrat Party!!! However, on the positive side, Politico, CNBC, MSNBC, CNN and now, CBS have hurt themselves badly with the majority fo American citizens, seeking objective, unbiased snd fair reporting & commentary!!!

Michele Bachmann was complaining about being ignored and I just saw a guy on Fox News discussing it. His name slips mymind. It will come to me... Stephen somethng.

Anyway, he said she had a valid point but with so many candidates still in, it is logical to concentrate on the top tier candidates. Questioned why Huntsman is still up there at all. Apparently, Huntsman, Bachmann and Santorum are still in low single digits, but, hey, if they want to stay in, I guess they can.

thanks, for these Sunday ping(s).
seeBSNews blew it. First by dropping the tv broadcast of the debate to web
streaming for the final half-hour. Second by having a pathetic streaming
quality....should have shot Scott Pelley.

They didn't blow it, was meant to be (very) badly produced.....
(as a reflection the GOP field of candidates)
You can bet, seeBS wouldn't have had this kind of performance during an 0Bozo "teleprompter performance, as long as Myth's performance wasn't
"Perry-like"...the Establishment Media's stooge won the debate. :(
