#1 They’re actually pressuring Holt to take on a more "active" role in the debate "Take an active role? You mean like a Candy Crowley active role?"

#2 The Hildebeast campaign's internal polling must be bad because this is a sign of desperation. Or maybe this is just a call for a "safe space".

#3 Of course she is. She can't win the debate without the moderator's help and she knows it.

#5 Rasmussen says that nearly 1/2 of those polled think the moderators will help Clinton. I'm surprised the number's not higher, but I don't think it'll matter - Trump is exactly the wrong guy to pull this crap on. He'll have Holt and his big fucking forehead on a pike with the first slanted question.

#6 You would think Trump would be prepared for this kind of crap and will assume that he is facing 2 opponents and not one.

#7 The moderator will be persona non grata among the liberal elites if he doesn't bend over backwards and carry Hillary.

#8 It's never been about fairness to the media/Left. It's all about power. Power is self rationalizing. The 'show' is just for the rubes to maintain an illusion of legitimacy.

Are you suggesting that there actually is a 'shadow gov't' and this is all a kabuki dance? .....gasp !

#11 P2k should have stayed with the Captain Hatfield monicker, but it's just me likely. Damn, there's a lot of dust in this blog. :(

#12 I suspect a Rantburg grade determination would rate him much higher than a Captain.
