Who selected the questions for this debate?

I'd say that they fairly significantly favored the "left" side of the discussion.

Nah. They were neutral.

Romney's doing well position himself to the left of Obama.

I was watching FOX News, and they said that the questions were selected by the New Black Panther Party.

They also said that every single person in the audience was not really an american.

Uh huh. Completely neutral. lol


QUESTION: In what new ways to you intend to rectify the inequalities in the workplace, specifically regarding females making only 72 percent of what their male counterparts earn?

QUESTION: Governor Romney, I am an undecided voter, because I’m disappointed with the lack of progress I’ve seen in the last four years. However, I do attribute much of America’s economic and international problems to the failings and missteps of the Bush administration. Since both you and President Bush are Republicans, I fear a return to the policies of those years should you win this election. What is the biggest difference between you and George W. Bush, and how do you differentiate yourself from George W. Bush?

QUESTION: Mr. Romney, what do you plan on doing with immigrants without their green cards that are currently living here as productive members of society?

QUESTION: President Obama, during the Democratic National Convention in 2008, you stated you wanted to keep AK-47s out of the hands of criminals. What has your administration done or planned to do to limit the availability of assault weapons?

QUESTION: The outsourcing of American jobs overseas has taken a toll on our economy. What plans do you have to put back and keep jobs here in the United States?

Arguably a couple of others in the way that they were asked.

What's the problem? Just because you don't like the questions (i.e., Romney looks like an ass trying to answer them), doesn't mean they aren't valid.

I'd say that they reflect the talking points of one side versus the other.

And actually Romney did an effective job in answering most of them.

But not what I'd call a real level field with 5 or 6 out of 11 questions tending favor one side when the rest were relatively neutral.

Ah, OK.

Looks like Crowley was the one who picked the questions.

Go figure...

Who picked the questions?

I think Michelle Obama and Chris Matthews.

The questions were directly taken from a suggestion box located in a walmart service area break room located in Arkansas.
