I agree wholeheartedly…the chief qualification for a moderator should be an inability to refrain from chuckling when appropriate, and Stewart’s the best at laughing at everyone in the wrong, regardless of party politics…if only GWB were more aware of the natural laugh track built into his speeches, who knows….
If nothing else, it would boost viewership. But I’d only support it if the debate ended with a “Back in Black” segment.
I hear ya, Mojo, but I doubt they could pull it off. I think Lewis Black is great, but if he listened to GWB in open debate his head would most likely explode before the second question.
