"... she failed at what I regard as Job One of a moderator, which is to prevent interruptions from letting the candidates talk."

The bitch herself interrupted Ryan several times.

He was trying to make his point and she would interrupt with questions or statements. If I were Ryan, I would have stopped her a couple times and asked "Wait a minute - which one of you am I debating?"

This is where Romney’s experiance in the primaries helped him in the 1st debate. Romney has learned how to deal with these liberal moderators.

My wife, who is largely apolitical and attempts to be fair to everyone (deserving or not), was put-off by Radditz and horrified by Biden; concluding that ABC had the fix in for Obama.

She should never have been alowed to be moderator. Her bias only proves the incompetence of the MSM.

Next time I want to see a moderator from Blaze TV.

I agree on the sentiment, but a snarky response like that (while satisfying) would have undermined Ryan’s credibility as a serious contender for VP, and would have been the whole headline this morning - “Ryan Unable to Out-Debate Biden, Loses Temper”.

That was the response I believe Biden and Raddatz wanted, so Ryan’s refusal to succumb to frustration was probably a very good thing.

I would probably have gone ballistic, myself.
