so that she softballs Palin.

8. From what I've seen, it's pretty hard to intimidate Ifill.

7. Wow, the McCain team are amazing. The amount of crap that they spew seems to have no end.
Geez, I guess the only foreign policy questions Gwen can ask should be about Russia.

19. questions should be about Russia...
More specifically, when looking at Russia from Alaska, has Sarah Palin ever SEEN Putin, or any Russian for that matter?
Maybe Phalin has seen a Russian fishing boat or something. But that just begs the question... If a Russian fishing vessel can see Alaskan soil from time to time, would that mean the fishermen are experts on foreign policy regarding the USA?
Just a thought

11. Nancy, You are Weird!
I must borrow one of McCain's words from the debate with Obama the other night to describe Ms. Nancy Alphabits interview -- HORSESH$T!!!

12. LMAO

Ask domestic stuff too...I dont care...Palin is vacuous. Her entire domestic agenda is 'drill here, drill now, pay less', she has no earthly idea about anything otherwise. Biden will school her on domestic issues too and that's what I'd tell these Faux News hacks.

14. But, then, she may have the same problem with questions about domestic policy.
Say, questions about the economy, health care, social security. To really be fair, the moderator should focus the questions on policy with respect to Alaska.

17. What the hell is Failin's "Forte"?
Edited on Mon Sep-29-08 11:02 AM by Heather MC
Energy? She lives in a bil Oil State Next
Economy? She got lucky to be Gov, when the oil prices went up
Foreign Policy? Next
Immigration? Riiiight

Domestic Issues? She doesn't even want to be a part of the US

Hmmm it seems even asking her, her fucking name would be sexist

18. What?!?

We are fighting 2 wars while North Korea and Iran are seeking nuclear weapons, and she thinks focusing on foreign policy would be unfair?

Unbelievable.

20. Ifill is female, black, and she wrote a book about race relations
improving. Obama is written about in the book.

The right wing will certainly trash Ifill,no matter what she does.

22. Gwen Ifill?????? She's about as unbiased as Pat Robertson.
Jesus Christ, they (the Republicans) have the ideal "moderator", a black woman, from PBS, that is in my humble fucking opinion, in the tank for the Republicans. What the fuck more do they want?

23. I thought they were going to be attacking Ifill based on her being an African American
(though I don't doubt that will be pointed-out by some RW talking head, if Palin performs poorly on Thursday)
