Wondering which debate moderator was most biased? Which one was most centrist? Here's the complete scorecard, including tonight's debate...

They all were but tonight the president prevailed. It's been hitting him from both sides but Kerry showed his colors tonight

I thought Lerher was the most biased, I don't even need to see their poll results.

I am making up for 20 years of suffering with network news and PBS by watching FOX exclusively. Thank goodness for Brit Hume.

I think Lehrer was by FAR the most biased, though Gibson leaned that way.

Ifill and Schieffer were downright moderate, compared Lehrer!

I think Ifill was the most effective moderator and asked the best questions.

Gibson asking Bush what three mistakes he made when Kerry was not asked what his makes were was the most biased.

Lehrer was the most biased.
He didn't even look like he made any attempt, whatsoever, to hide it.
It was especially evident in his questions. All questions were designed to make Kerry look good and Bush look bad.
Lehrer is just another liberal bottom feeder.

Schieffer was the most biased. But he had to hide it because of the recent CBS flak.

His nervous cackle when Kerry said in jest that all three had married above them. In Kerry's case he has married a crass little self absorbed billionairess who thinks people like her for her self - not her money. She is above him only because Kerry is worse.

He even used his dying mother to to enhance his campaign. She said "integrity, integrity, integrity". Right! Was she saying it because she knew that was his weakest area? Did he make it up so that people would believe he had some? It was sickening!

I know nothing about Shieffer but Bush had married a woman of obvious class and clarity.

Wow, what a tough call to make! But, Lehrer was probably the most biased in his questioning...there are literally hundreds of questions that could have been asked of Kerry that would have put him on the defensive, but not a one of them was asked by Lehrer. Bush on the other hand was forced to be on the defensive most of the night by Lehrer's incessant DNC playbook questioning!
