Candy Crowley Bleats Yet Again

I am not a fan of Candy Crowley and this video from TPM Election Central demonstrates why.  Anderson Cooper asks a question about distortion by both campaigns.  She is of the mind that ‘it’s not her role to determine who is a bigger liar.’  See if you can decide who she’ll be voting for in the upcoming election.  Via Greg Sargent below:

Crowley occupies a very influential position. Her gig is presumably to go on CNN and inform viewers about the presidential race. The central story of the race right now, by any measure, is the very clear calculation by McCain and his advisers that they can essentially fictionalize the McCain-Palin ticket with a nonstop stream of complete falsehoods without being held sufficiently accountable by the press for voters to catch on. What McCain is doing is not remotely comparable to anything Obama is doing.
