The Obama and Romney campaigns have complained to the Commission on Presidential Debates over remarks moderator Candy Crowley has made about her role in this week’s upcoming town hall presidential debate, TIME magazine’s Mark Harlperin reports:

While an early October memorandum of understanding between the Obama and Romney campaigns suggests CNN’s Candy Crowley would play a limited role in the Tuesday-night session, Crowley, who is not a party to that agreement, has done a series of interviews on her network in which she has suggested she will assume a broader set of responsibilities. As Crowley put it last week, “Once the table is kind of set by the town-hall questioner, there is then time for me to say, ‘Hey, wait a second, what about X, Y, Z?’”
