The winner of tonight's presidential debate is...

...Bob Schieffer. Seriously - that's how to moderate a debate.

Edited because I completely mispelled "Schieffer" last night. Thought I'd confirmed the spelling with a hasty Google, but just confirmed that others can't spell it either.

Yes. I was thinking exactly the same thing. That was really very well done indeed.

And he was right -- those sure weren't softball questions, either.

I assumed "Schieffer" was yet another bizarre spelling of our name, invented by an immigrations official with an eccentric relationship to phonetics, but it's not. We're shepherds; they're shipmen.

Yeah, it was well-moderated. Excruciating to listen to, as usuall, but well-moderated.
