He interrupted POTUS constantly and let Rmoney pretty much do anything he wanted.

@frankrichny I'll say it: you haven't done a poor job, Mr. Moderator. You've done a history-making awful job.

(11,075 posts)8. He Was Awful
Worst performance by a debate moderator that I have ever seen.

(12,799 posts)9. He should be embarrassed.

Maybe threatening Lehrer's job was the most cogent point Romney made all night.
