[quote=Anonymous]He did as good a job as anyone else would have. Sure, another moderator might have shut these guys down, but the format agreed to by the campaigns and the commission for this debate intended for there to be direct interaction between the candidates and an open debate. If he, or someone else, shut them down at every turn we would not have heard them say as much as they did. We got a lot more information out of them last night than we have for months. I have worked with Jim Lehrer in the past and this was classic Jim...he is nothing if not respectful and composed. Yes, he could have reined them in a bit more, but he tried to insert himself and, frankly, both were disrespectful of his role and disregarded his requests to finish up and move on. Still, it's not his style to be pushy with top officials like the President or the Republican nominee. If he had moderated with an iron fist everyone would have criticized that too...[/quote]
