Yes, but it resulted in her overstepping her bounds. She was not supposed to re-imagine questions on the fly and she had no right whatsoever to jump in as a "fact checker". Her role is to keep them within the time, not be a third debater.

That is exactly the point why she was excelllent. When the guys were starting to bullshit (particularly Romney), she immediately stepped in and re-asked the question. It is no wonder that particularly the Romney camp disliked her, because this pathetic guy didn't even answer one single question - Obama at least tried a (very) few times. This happens when both guys were trained to give standard, content-free answers to any questions.

I'd really like to see an open discussion, no secret agreements, no prepared questions. Bring back Bill O'Reilly and Jon Stewart...


Again another bad part on her. Obama was on par with Romney in this debate in bs and avoiding questions. There is nothing wrong with reasking a question but there is with asking new questions and becoming part of the debate.
