This, of course, assumes anyone actually thought Crowley had any credibility to start with.

She is a hero to the MSM.

Her cred didn’t die. She killed it.

This column is the best summary I have seen of the events, and of Obama's huge problem as a result of those events.

But facts that the president knew almost immediately, or even prior, began to trickle out, eroding the ground under his deception: There had been no protest at all in Benghazi. Al Qaeda was active in Libya. England had removed its diplomatic personnel for that reason.

There had been several threats and attacks aimed at the consulate and ambassador. He feared for his life. He requested additional security. The assault was sophisticated, well executed, and probably aimed at seizing intelligence about American activity in the area. State Department and almost certainly White House staffers watched the attack in real time from posted video monitors.

The truth now in plain sight underscores the president’s failures of policy and leadership. Until Benghazi, he could boast of a hopeful Arab Spring, winds of reform in the Middle East, advancing peace, and al Qaeda “on the road to defeat.” Those happy talking points lie in blackened shards.

Crowley's "performance" proved why nobody watches CNN.

Why is a CNN reporter even moderating a debate? CNN is so yesterday's news.

“She is a hero to the MSM.”

Most Hussein Heads I’ve seen excrete about it think she did a great job at the debate.

The Rose Garden usage of the “terror” word.
It’s called equivocating. Politicians have been observed to do that.

Her cred didn’t die. She killed it.

Even so, that doesn't change a thing. She's still on the air, people watch, listen and believe just as before.

The public doesn't seek or demand credibility, they just want re-enforcement of their preconceived ideas.

The masses have their Magic N who must be admired, worshiped, adored, protected and truth hidden at all costs.

If Hussein wins, the MSM will have done fatal damage to this nation. The payback should be overwhelming. A concerted effort to identify each advertiser on CNN, and let it be know that patriotic Americans will not support those that support the enemies of America. Put Crowley on the unenployment line, with a big red “Traitor” branded on her.

The entire debate was a setup, not just that one exchange.

At least a few more people will be negative when they see her on CNN.

I’ll take even a small decline in CNN’s creds. Every little bit helps.

Mrs. Crowley, what went wrong in your head?

This was the day when CNN crossed from moderately left of center to MSNBC land. I don’t believe Crowley killed her “journalistic” career as there are plenty of stations where a leftward bias is considered an advantage. Did Barbara Walters start starving when she abandoned any shred of non-bias reputation? Not even close! She’s making a terrific living as part of the View.

Crowley placed her bet...ALL her career chips are now all on Obama. If Romney wins...she loses. Others sense that...and either attempting a shred of journolistic integrity (Jake Tapper for one) or are just now breaking the Obot lockstep (David Gregory) it has been realized by a few at least that the there IS a very real chance that Romney will win...and it’s the true believing, bleery eyes like Crowley that will be left behind.

I hope Romney has more “fight” and is waay more “grudge keeping” than
W was.
