The moderator is getting rolled over!

She is letting them both walk over each other! I am not impressed with all the over talking! I think Kaine has the upper hand, but Pence is not far behind. Hillary needs to kick Trump to the curb so neither Trump nor Pence get near the White House!

1. Moderator is a big failure, has lost total control... nt

[RKP5637]

2. Yep, she's lost it! n/t

[petronius]

3. She has a thankless impossible task - I think she's doing about as well as possible

given the circumstances. She needs a cartoon-sized gavel, or a taser or something...

4. True!

5. Other than giving them underwear that will deliver a shock when they won't shut up, not sure what

else she could do

6. That actually is a great idea.

7. One problem is that women's voices, generally, are higher pitched

and do not carry the same force as men's lower-pitched voices do.

I notice this in church - we have a male pastor who not only has a great, booming voice, but is a trained singer. Our female pastor has a much less powerful voice. I keep trying to remind myself that they need to increase the volume on her mic.

I think they should have upped her microphone volume, and she should have practiced reigning in the candidates. Lester Holt should have practiced it, too. It's not as though they don't know that each candidate is going to go on and on.
