Why didn't the moderator enforce the rules of the debate. She constantly let Biden interrupt.?

Question

The debate last night was really two on one.

She interrupted a good deal of the time as well. You are correct in that Ryan was actually debating two people instead of just Biden

Answer 2

Well, the moderator's goal was to encourage good, lively debate. And Biden was following the rules of civil debates.



Biden was simply fact-checking Ryan on the spot. And he was right:

No one has ever been able to keep Biden's mouth shut.
