She let everyone talk about all of the issues, and even let them finish what they were saying.
Joe's biggest problem has always been his really annoying habit of always cutting off his guests when they are talking.
So, I think that Joe is just "phoning it in" now since Romney is running the most pathetic Presidential campaign in modern history.
