| Apparently, the two presidential campaigns want to muzzle Candy Crowley in the second debate tomorrow night. The Post reports that while both the campaigns agreed that the debate moderator would get no follow-ups or otherwise intervene, Crowley, in what seems to have been a communication lapse, didn’t agree to that arrangement. (Hey, these people could work at the White House!) The Commission on Presidential Debates said it would talk to her. Will Candy go rogue? I suppose she’s going to have to follow the rule,

For a few days Jennifer was sounding sane. Now this:
But still, each in his or her own way, Lehrer and Martha Raddatz kept the debates they moderated moving and made sure the candidates engaged each other.
Jennifer did not watch the Raddatz "debate" that I watched.

Candy who? If America wanted to see Candy, they would watch her show. The debate is about Obama and Romney -- not some old CNN careerist. Tom Brokaw tried to make the townhall debate about HIM 4 years ago. Enough. Just ask the damn question, lady, and let the two duke it out.

The more the Media attacks Romney and protects, Obama, the more the Progressives look weak.
The economy and world leadership issues are too important to be managed by "soundbites".
Let Candy make a fool of herself.
Raddatz tried that on Ryan and it backfired.
Romney will be ready.
Romney/Ryan!

there is no guarantee we’re going to get illuminating or even relevant questions.
I think the audience deserves a bit more credit that this, Jennifer. Unless, of course, Candy picks the stupid questions and ignores the substantive ones.
Remember, it was the illuminating and relevant George Stephanopolous that asked Mitt Romney if he wanted to outlaw birth control.

Martha's injecting herself and her opinions into the debate was cringeworthy, but it helped Plugs, so we'll see more of it tonight. A lot more. However, I believe Mitt will be a bit better at asserting himself against it than Paul was (though Paul was fie overall).
I have the day off so I plan to see Atlas Shrugged II in the afternoon and the debate tonight. Readying the popcorn and cocktail shaker. I hope lucianne is gracious enough to provide another live thread and does not get attacked again from outside. I felt like I was floating in free fall without ldotters to chat to during the last one!

This is going to be a left tilted event - Obama, the moderator and the audience. I am sure Romney is expecting that. Raddatz was awful. She seemed to assume that we cared more about her opinions than Paul Ryan's. She was as rude, arrogant and dismissive as Biden was. Even the conservative pundits are heaping on the praise about how great she was and what a 'nice guy' Biden is. They are obviously easily taken in by cocktail party phoniness. Most people in DC are that shallow. It will be up to Romney to manage this and I'm betting he will.

Boudin, 69, this year won another academic laurel — being named the Sheinberg Scholar-in-Residence at NYU Law School, where last month she gave a lecture on “the politics of parole and re-entry.” Boudin’s bounce-back into respectability after her 2003 parole comes to light a week before the release of Robert Redford’s movie

Arianna Huffington partied so hard in her rented Chelsea loft that it looked like a scene from Animal House after a rowdy frat party, according to a new lawsuit. When Huffington departed the 4,400 square foot, seven-story apartment at 227 W. 17th Street in January she´d caused $275,000 in damages ranging from "gouged, stained and otherwise damaged" walls, "scratched, punctured" wood floors, bloodied mattresses and broken appliances, the Manhattan Supreme Court suit charges. "Huffington was using the apartment for large parties and business functions in breach of the sublease and Huffington´s promises," court papers allege.

The Weekly Standard obtained a copy of the program for President Obama’s Easter service at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C., and reports a few “highlights” from Rev. Dr. Luis Leon’s sermon: We often want things to go back to the way things used to be, before “work got difficult and faith got confused, and life got more confusing,” but when we dwell on the “if only” of life we forget that “God addresses us in the now.” As Jesus told Mary not to hold on to the past, “You cannot go back.”

Although the term "useful idiots" was originally attributed to Vladimir Lenin, its origin is undetermined but it is very applicable to the naïve celebrities in Hollywood and the media now mourning the death of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Much like the devotees of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, these grieving individuals have made no effort to learn the truth about those they lionize. One has to feel some pity for the likes of the Sean Penns, Oliver Stones, Michael Moores, Danny Glovers, and idolaters who naively support malignant despots and causes believing them to be a force for good.

Jurors convicted Kilpatrick of a raft of crimes, including a racketeering conspiracy charge that carries a maximum punishment of 20 years behind bars. He was portrayed during a five-month trial as an unscrupulous politician who took bribes, rigged contracts and lived far beyond his means while in office until fall 2008.

Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes.

Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Myron Ullman, Johnson´s predecessor at JCPenney, takes office as CEO. When Johnson was initially wooed by JCPenney, it was to serve as CEO with Ullman as Chairman. In January 2012, Ullman was unceremoniously removed from the board. Gone with Ullman was any control the Board of Directors had over Ron Johnson and his control of JCPenney resources.

The state of California is reportedly considering legislation that would force group insurance policies to provide infertility treatment for gay and lesbian couples. Two men who have sex with each other for a year and do not produce a baby would be considered “infertile” under the proposed legislation. So would two women having sex. Since biology does not allow those without a uterus to conceive or those without a penis to impregnate, every year-long gay couple in California would potentially be covered by this new provision of California law.
