About Kristin Arnold

Rules Analyst for the 2019-20 Presidential Debate

Most pundits discussed what each candidate said. Kristin Arnold took a fresh and different angle: How did the moderators impact the discussion? Smackdown or Run Wild?

Kristin Arnold is a leading authority on moderating panel discussions.  She literally wrote the book on it.

Much like a football rules analyst, Kristin commented on how objective, skilled, and fair the debate moderators were immediately after each Presidential debate in 2019-20.
