The premise that only left-wing ‘news’ people are legitimate moderators is the problem and the Romney-Ryan campaign shouldn’t just roll over for it.

But they have rolled over for it, just as McCain did so noticeably in 2008. Why? The question really should be answered. Why does the Republican Party capitulate repeatedly in this important matter of who asks the questions. The habitual recurrence of this situation defies reason. At least for me.

Tactical decision. The Goebbels on the Left control the venue, and will triumphantly and incessantly portray any Republican resistance to their moderator choices as a sign of fear and weakness. This would hurt Republicans with moderates and independents.
