The town-hall debate is the one presidential faceoff in which the audience gets to ask the questions.
But dont tell that to moderator Candy Crowley.
Like any journalist worthy of the assignment, Crowley concedes that the debate on Tuesday night isnt about her, but she just as eagerly acknowledges her role in it.

She's right, she is a PIG IN A PEN!

I think of her more as what precedes an adult fly.

"Once the table is kind of set by the town hall questioner, there is then time for me to say, Hey, wait a second, what about x, y, z?, Crowley told CNN earlier this month. LOL. "x, y and z" for Candy are mashed potatoes, gravy and apple pie.

Like any journalist worthy of the assignment, Crowley concedes that the debate on Tuesday night isnt about her...... it's about Obama winning by any means necessary (including biting off Romney's ear, but only if absolutely necessary).

No, she’s not.
I’ve never seen a 260 lb. fly.

Anyone that has ever seen Talkback Live in person (an old CCN afternoon show) where “regular people” in the audience asked questions to the guest will recognize that this is neither a town hall or random in nature. CNN will specifically choose questions and tone to tell a story of their choosing. Candy Crowley is a strong partisan and the debate will be pure theater. Romney will need to overcome the bias that will attempt to slant the debate. I thought Ryan left a ton of meat on the table because he did not overcome the bias truncation of his answers and the repeated interruptions to his points very well. He should have come back to those points after the next questions and INSISTED that his points be made, not dismissed by others.

Funny....actually, I think of her as more of what the adult fly lands on and craves to emulsify (excrement).

As a MSM reporteer, she’s lower than a fly on the wall.
She is what the fly likes to eat.

Candy-Eater Crowley will do anything she can to help her Messiah.
Oh, and the "town hall" format is stupid. That is where Bill Clinton got his "boxers or briefs" question.
