TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA: Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly was hailed as a "great moderator" after she successfully co-moderated the fourth GOP debate in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, with NewsNation's Elizabeth Vargas and The Washington Free Beacon's Eliana Johnson.

Once the debate was over, Kelly interviewed Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley, asking them about their experiences of the event.

Over here, she spoke to her audiences and told them that "candidates came ready for battle" and what made it great was the candidates' willingness to go forth and "debate" each other.

In the post-debate show for her viewers, Kelly admitted, "I think this was the most lively debate, and I think the candidates came ready to battle, which was great." 

She then disclosed the two things that made the fourth GOP debate stand out from the last three events. 

"Two things it [debate] great - We wanted them to debate and they wanted to debate. We allowed them. They came feisty and we allowed them to sort of manifest, and I think that’s what made the difference tonight’s performance," noted the former Fox News host.

Kelly added, "I do believe if I may say, I think the questions were harder and they were more provocative and they wore more interesting and they were more on their heels and it was a little torqued up as opposed to what would you do about that, so those are the things that made the difference."
