...amount of time allowed for response to each question. The moderators also allowed for little discussion between the candidates. In particular, the various questions asked by Karen Brown of WNUR detracted significantly from the tenor of the debate and trivialized the issues facing the American people. When Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) suggested in his closing statement that the candidates try a Lincoln-Douglas style debate in January, it was the best idea of the evening...
