I think Jim Lehrer did a fine job.
He couldn't possibly call them on their bullshit answers (and there were quite a few, from both sides.) He did, however, try to direct the candidates to answer each other's challenges, which, in my opinion, is what a moderator is supposed to do.
I don't think there was an advantage given to either candidate. I think both candidates had opportunities to "zing" their opponent. Some were taken, some weren't.
I think Lehrer was pretty fair to both of them.
