1. Good point, but she's likely post-menopausal

5. It was a disrespectful question to Dukakis. But, it would be more appropriate to RMoney

given that he's fully embraced the GOP platform on the issue: "without regard to rape, incest or the life of the mother"

3. Was it Shaw? I thought it was the guy from ABC News...

Can picture the cretin but I can't recall his name.

On edit...Sam Donaldson.

4. CNN

That was back when CNN still could pretend to be a news network

[truebrit71]

12. It was a real "when did you stop beating your wife" question...

..and one that Dukakis should have thrown back in his face...

6. I don't think we have the caliber of moderators that we had in the past.

7. Bernie Shaw & Tim Russert- two of the worst debate mod's ever

Bernie Shaw singlehandedly destroyed Mike Dukakis with his stupid ass question that sabatoged him

and Tim Russert, who could forget the slob gaffowing and almost choking to death with glee, while he sabataged Dennis Kucinich (wasting precious debate time) about aliens and UFO's ) and then Kucinich was banished from all future debates.
(let alone when Russert so wanted Bush to win in 2000 with all the lies they spewed.)

of course, Bernie and Tim were well rewarded for their loyalty to the Bush's, weren't they.

I personally would get rid of debates, because all they are is now looking for that one soundbyte remark that will destroy the other candidate they don't want to win.

(most everyone thought Al Gore won 2, if not all 3 debates, but the spin by the Tim Russert's out there threw it to Bush).

14. I remember. The correct answer was NOT I'd form a committee.
