After the debates last night, did Candy Crowley seem biased to you?
She did to me. I found her to be filled with hate for the Democrats and to my mind she was spitting her words when speaking about our side and softened considerably when she spoke about the Repubics.

What did you think?

(This is my second thread on this topic as the first one got sidetracked.)

1. Of course.
She was biased before the debate, and will continue to be biased.

2. I think she's always been like that.
She's always seemed rather condescending whenever she has to cover Democrats.

12. Agreed - I can't fathom why they don't assign someone else to the coverage?...n/t

3. She always sounds biased to me. Her hate for Democrats
has long been established. Hateful, hateful person, IMO.

4. Not biased against the Democrats
Just not very favorable towards Hillary and the way she had acted.

Big difference.

20. Totally biased against all Democrats and biased in favor of any right-winger.
Candy Crowley was incredibly partisan during the 2004 election coverage. Loathesome. She's clearly on the Republican payroll.

5. She said Edwards probably won.
What does that mean? He has a right wing voting record, so you might be right.

6. Candy can't hide her hate
I know Hate is a strong term but I rank her right up there with Ann Coulter...

7. She's disgusting. She acts like she's in heat around GOPhers ...
... and like a jilted teen around Democrats. She just OOZES bias ... every bit as bad as Peggy Nooner.

8. The reason CNN assigned her to cover the Democrats is because she HATES them.
They are determined to keep a repuke in the WH to protect their Corporate owned jobs. Yes, she seemed bias. Just like she always sounds.:(

15. I emailed CNN for years politely urging them to get rid of her
and they ignored everyone. Finally out of sheer frustration I sent them one loaded with references to Jabba the hutt, the blob, etc. I received a response from some CNN butt munch informing me that they did not respond to personal attacks but they welcomed civil discussion of their commentary. I thought screw it turned off CNN and haven't watched it since.

19. Did you watch her during the 2004 election. Pure hate-filled Bush supporter all the way.
I wonder how much she gets paid by the right-wingers.
