Beyond Pinhead's attack, Stephanopoulos has had a long term relationship with Shaheen.
Church Lady: “Well, isn't that special?

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee for president in 2012 and a supporter of former Sen. Scott Brown’s campaign, decried an effort by the liberal media to falsely smear Brown during last night’s final New Hampshire Senate debate against incumbent Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH).
“You know I think it’s unfortunate but in some cases moderators hope to become part of the story,” Romney said on Laura Ingraham’s radio program. “Obviously that furthers their career and makes a lot of people talk about them. And people who are on their side are very pleased about it and give them a lot of kudos. Look, the debate commissioners are going to have to do a better job to make sure moderators follow the rules and don’t themselves become part of the debates. But in the final analysis I think people vote based on who they think is going to help them and their family and their country in the best way, so I don’t give too much weight to these kinds of snafus in debates but nonetheless it’s already been cleared up.”
Ingraham compared the mistaken question—where WMUR’s James Pindell falsely told Brown that New Hampshire’s Sullivan County is not north of the state’s capitol Concord—to CNN’s Candy Crowley false assertion to Romney during a debate between him and President Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential race about the Benghazi terrorist attack.
“Well of course the moderator James Pindell from local WMUR had to apologize,” Ingraham said. “But it reminded me of the Candy Crowley moment in your debate, where it’s like is she actually part of the Obama re-election team or what? I mean she had a transcript ready and going right to that deal is just ridiculous.”

You just cannot get the stink off of one of those.
Liberals and Democraps are demonic scum, no different from moslems.
The Republicans should just refuse to participate in “debates” with “moderators” from the leftist media. If they don’t like it, tell them to go pound sand.
It’s not a debate anyway. It is a series of prepared statements. You don’t even need a moderator. The questions could be prerecorded and the candidate’s microphone shut off when the time limit is up.
Gotta love the innocuous mush that comes out of Romney in these situations. Anyway, if you accept a Clinton hatchet boy like Stephy as your debate moderator, you’re too dumb and spineless to win.
Candidates should refuse to allow MSM reporters to moderate debates.
You had your chance, Mitt. But you let Candy "check the transcript" Crowley play you like a Walmart kazoo. You don't get a mulligan on this one.
What’s the perp’s FR nick? Thanks afraidfortherepublic.
Steponallofus is a pig.
I would think that Stumpy Stepalopagus would need to have some credibility beyond being a cheap hack for any apology from him or any outfit that would hire him to be legit.
