Sarah Palin accuses Martha Raddatz of doing a sub-par job as moderator.

Understand that it is never the job of a moderator to enter the debate,  show preference in spite of the fact that “preference”  is most often obvious,  or argue with the contestant(s).  And yet,  the GOP allows the national press the privilege of moderating presidential debate in which they despise the conservative point of view. 

On a number of occasions during the Thursday night VP debate,  Paul Ryan was having to debate the Martha Raddatz/Joe Biden partnership. 

Speaking to Sean Hannity on Fox News,  Sarah Palin had this to say:  

“Really tough format, Sean, for someone like a Paul Ryan or anybody else up against Joe Biden, when the moderator allowed one candidate to absolutely run roughshod over the conversation, over the opponent.  That’s a tough format. It reminded me … of watching a musk ox run across the tundra with somebody underfoot. And in this case, when it came to style, it was Paul Ryan underfoot because of the moderator allowing Biden to do the interrupting, to kind of take control of the conversation.”  There is little question that Biden intended to throw Ryan off his game,  as he laughed and ridiculed the challenger.  In the end,  5 of the 6 polls gave the debate to Ryan,  but Biden was [probably] able to do what he needed to do and that was to energize his base." 

Imagine this:  Just three weeks until the election and Obama is still trying to energize his base.  Incredible.
