I'm assuming they will then have to answer her question, or just sit there and take whatever she has to say. She doesn't have to ask a question in those 2 minutes.

disgusting slobbering fawning over the shrub in the 2000 election. I swear she got a stiffy when she heaved his name.

She traveled with him on the campaign trail so I'm sure he flirted with her. I swear she would blush when talking about him.

I am not even joking, no one is tuning in to hear a Candy Crowley speech and if she were to attempt such a speech the backlash would be huge.

It would be karmic justice if she took herself down a peg or two.

The moderators of these debates are taking just as much flack as the candidates, and Crowley is not a very likeable person to begin with, even with the repubs.

Sounds like she's going to be a participant in the debate instead of the moderator. Maybe tomorrow she'll announce her candidacy.

We won't have to listen to Romney lying that much! Of course maybe he'll try to talk over Candy, but she will stop him on his flip flopping one track mind!!!!!!!!

I just can't imagine how she was selected to moderate this debate tonight since she is so obviously biased. Mitt probably couldn't be happier.

She'll give really hard questions and follow-up to Obama and softballs with little or no follow-ups to Rmoney.

If she gets to pick the questions she sure has the piower to skew these questions to favor Romney. Would she be so blatant? Sure. If it helps Mitwit look "presidential" then why would she care about any criticism after the fact?

The absolute worst. And if she can support mittens in any way she will. I was reminding the hubby that bushie's nickname for her was "Dulce."
