She's still a shill. However, she's probably anti-Romney. Many shills hate Romney. n/t vaberella Oct 2012 #24

She did very good tonight. She did let Rmoney talk too much at times, but over all, it was a good debate.

time according to one report. I don't want to rain on people's parade, but I think she directed the debate to favor President Obama. Watch without preconceptions.

Obama did what he needed to do to win the election.

Still pissed me off at times, but a definite and worthy #2 to this point after Raddatz...I was definitely pleasantly surprised.

Part of it was that Romney, straight off, offended her with his assumption of privilege and exemption from rules. She is, when all is said and done, a high-powered career woman, and Romney is what all such women refer to as 'a dick', and have met hundreds of times before in their climb to status. They do not like them, not at all....

"Romney loves America like a tick loves a dog."

Don't assume anything. She just was "fair"

Actually in my opinion she should HAVE SHUT ROMNEY UP SEVERAL TIMES WHEN SHE DIDN"T

She allowed this debate to be framed with the issues that have defined this election, she was not the story and she did not shill at all.

No issues with her at night at all. Jim Lehrer needed to take lessons on how to control a debate. Both Martha Raddatz and Candy Crowley were very good.

Exactly as it should have been. She may well have a conservative bias, but it was not reflected in her role as moderator.
