I didn't even see the debate but I am sure enjoying those comments. I can just apply them to any time I've seen him on MTP.

The Moderators will be doing the controlling and the candidates have to work around them.

Gregory is fighting for his job and for Rove.

Not nearly as effective as impromptu responses by a viewing audience. There were tweets to fire him BEFORE the debate even started. Not classy.

Having said that, I have no doubt he was bad as the moderator.

As far the tweets asking for him to be fired before the debate started, don't worry, he's earned it well before tonight.

When I grow up, I want to be David Gregory. By which I mean I want to be able to f*ck up constantly and get promoted for it.

Tonight the part of Republican candidate will apparently be played by David Gregory.

Someone needs to hit David Gregory with that Homey the Clown sock.
