there were some tough fair questions and frankly, some of the candidates just told boldface lies in the first of tough honest questions and they haven t been accountable for that. the other big challenge you have is the you overreact to this and run off and create, you ll see we re not going to go with tell telemundo. reince is saying we re only going to work with weekly standard. that s dangerous. weekly standard is conservative. the last time in 2012, the conservatives ran so far off into their media rabbit hole they believe they need to unsquu the polls, remember that? ro romney believed the pundits. there is a danger of the republicans getting too wrapped up in this. the media is wrong and victims that hurt them in 2012. it could hurt them again.
jon: he won t be jim lehrer? i don t think so. he did comment on the howard s interview how the 24 news cycle and how partisan things have become but i ll on go with cal thomas let s have former presidents moderate the debate. this interaction that was most interesting between the two men themselves. i liked jim lehrer s approach better. it let them talk to each other. it enabling the american people to look at both men and how they relate to each other. i really preferred that. as ben shapiro, 11 questions asked, six were pro bone and three were pro romney and two were neutral. as james rosen, she answered as

government. at least it was before those remarks were made public. still a bit of a surprise that the romney campaign bit on mr. gingrich s idea, that they took that advice. but they did take that advice. the ream campaign has been running ads accused president obama of gutting welfare reform by removing its work requirements. president obama did not do that, but the romney ads, a lot of them now, say he did. they show white americans working hard and they say this president wants to take your hard-earned money and give it away to lazy welfare recipients who aren t working. it s not true as a matter of policy. but that s how the romney campaign has been running against obama. he repeated the lie to cnn just last week. there was a moment back in may when it became a scandal that a pro-mitt romney super pac had even been pitched the idea of bringing jeremiah wright back as an attack on president obama. that ad campaign was never picked up by the pro-romney super pac or the romney campaig
