As someone who is in awe and grateful every day to be in a country where freedom of the press, free speech and free elections are a way of life, I am wowed, amazed and excited by the opportunity to moderate a 2012 presidential debate.

Don't plan too hard, because something much better might be out there.

I think in losing we find out who that person really is.

I feel great physically. I feel really good.

I'm a vegetarian who doesn't like eggplant parmesan. Isn't that awful? I'm also sick of portobello mushrooms. People are like,"A vegetarian's coming to dinner," so they serve those.

Usually you kind of give the President a pass on leaking confidential stuff.

I still get mad. I still get upset. But I let it go more quickly.
