State chair wants moderator change for next debate

By ADAM D. KRAUSS Democrat Staff Writer

MANCHESTER — Ray Buckley, the New Hampshire Democratic Party chair, said he was going to make one thing very clear when he spoke with NBC today about the September debate.

Buckley, experiencing his first home-state debate as party chair, lamented how CNN ran parts of the debate.

3. Begs the question....
...why didn't they iron out the basic details about time for each candidate BEFORE LAST NIGHT'S DEBATE?!!!

It is worse than pathetic when a wind bag "moderator" spends more time than two of the candidates combined.
