The Vice Presidential Debate's winner? Not a candidate, but the debate's moderator, ABC's Martha Raddatz.

Raddatz asked questions on a wide span of issues, ranging from foreign policy to abortion, and pressed the candidates to be exacting in their answers. "Be specific," she pushed Biden when she didn't find his answer to a question on Libya to be sufficient.
