    BTW, anybody mention ABC's female moderator was Kamala's sorority sister?

      In the sense that they were in different chapters in different universities in different states more than a decade apart?

      Only non-witches get due process.

        Still an unreported conflict of interest.

          Yeah, I rolled my eyes at that one. I don’t see that as being any kind of conflict of interest. I bet there have been a lot more egregious examples in the past.

            That being a conflict of interest is like me saying as a Manchester physics alumnus I was involved in splitting the atom.

            Which of course I was.

            I was only joking

              Former Clinton advisor Mark Penn thinks the debate was rigged and calls for an investigation.

              "I actually think they should do a full internal investigation, hire an outside law firm. I don't know how much of this was planned in advance," Penn told the "John Solomon Reports" podcast.

              "I don't know what they told the Harris campaign. I think the day after, suspicion here is really quite high, and I think a review of all their internal texts and emails really should be done by an independent party to find out to what extent they were planning on, in effect, you know, fact-checking just one candidate and in effect, rigging the outcome of this debate. I think the situation demands nothing less than that," he added.

              Penn, chairman of the Harvard CAPS Harris Poll, also said Harris has done a "good job" defining Trump as the incumbent and herself as the change candidate even though she's the sitting vice president. But he described the mainstream media's coverage of Harris' campaign as laughable.

              "It's a 50-50, race. He's [Trump] got more obvious tools to get across the finish line than she does and part of the thing here is that if the referees have their finger on the scale, it's harder to, you know, break through and overcome. And certainly, general media coverage has been fairly laughable," he said.

              "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                One of the reasons for joining a sorority is making connections that will serve you later in life.

                This is the classic example of a conflict of interest.

                So what? The ABC guys will be happy to attack Mr. Trump with or without any sorority.

                  Also need to check if the moderators and debaters ever belonged to the same frequent travelers or credit rewards or store loyalty programs for conflict of interests.

                    Hmm, weren't President Trump and the other moderator both Caucasian males with European ancestors? 6 degree of separation and all that.

                        David Muir also clearly spends an inordinate amount of time arranging his hair and makeup.

                        The two females involved in the debate probably less so.

                            You can dismiss the charters of Greek organizations as archaic novelties that nobody pays attention to. But the charters are actually that there exists a lifetime bond to support one another, regardless of generation or location.

                            But of course the real bond between the moderators and Kamala in this debate was much stronger. The bond of cultural tribe.

                            Education is extremely important.

                              It didn’t need context. As written it’s false straight up.

                                        I had that thought earlier. It’s one of Trump’s communication strategies. He’s done it forever and it works very well. I personally don’t respect it as it’s lying (as always) but it does get people talking.
