At one point

Hillary was pissed and they agreed to give her 30 seconds...after her response seemed to go on too long I checked my clock and her 30 seconds went on another 95 seconds. So Chuck and Rachel either had no clock, or fucked up, or were biased. Which do you think?

It seems those above who said they were deliberately unfair didn't watch the debate or have preconceived notions since Rachel has been more than sufficiently pro-Bernie best I can tell (I never miss her show.) I don't like Chuck but didn't think he was in the way, which was a good thing.

But for the first time, I felt Bernie got a reasonably fair shake tonite, even in the pundit post mortem.

they could have said, "Lamp," and the candidates would have been off and running. The mods didn't adhere to the time rules, and it's best they didn't.
