I am just curious as to what she will be able to do as the moderator on national TV to enhance Obama winning the debate to say nothing of the election? Doesn't the moderator just have a list of questions that she/he goes down and asks and the candidates just take turns answering the question and have time for rebuttal. Is the moderator that important? I must be missing something here. Won't be the first time but I just don't see that it makes any difference. If the candidates are going to do well, it shouldn't matter who is asking the questions, KWIM?
