VP Debate Moderator Brings Twist To Debate

1. We need to pray for Gwen Ifill that everything will go well during the VP debate and for a speedy healing of her ankle. Why? I know of a meteorologist’s wife who died from a broken ankle due to blood clots. The best thing Ifill can do, is to stay active. I trust that she will.

Here's the story:

2. I AM SOOOOO SICK OF THIS LEFT WING BIASED CRAP THAT THEY TRY TO SNEAK BY US. GEE, WHAT ARE THE CHANCES SHE WILL BE THROWING UP BALLOONS FOR BARACK TO HIT OUT OF THE PARK, WHILE AMBUSHING SARAH AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY. LETS SEE IF MCAINE HAS THE GONADS TO PUT HIS FOOT DOWN. IM THINKING............NO. HE IS TOO WEAK. THE MAN IS A WIMP. WHERE IS NEWT WHEN YOU NEED HIM. OH THATS RIGHT, OUT SELLING BOOKS. WHY ISN'T HE ON SOME MCAINE ADVISORY COMMITTEE SOMEWHERE.

A DISAPPOINTED REPUBLICAN WHO IS MOVING TO BRITISH COLUMBIA WHEN NOBAMA WINS IN NOV.

4. Gwen i've seen a debate you've done you were awesome, please don't let them give you any hassles about your book. I've heard Rick Warren who did the saddleback debate is writing a book on palin how biased was that. Your writing a book shouldn't have anything to do with her answering questions.

6. Gwen is a seasoned, unbiased professional journalist. She will give both VP candidates equal time - and tough questions.
You can count on that from her.

7. Give me a break. Anything to keep Palin shielded from the media and showing the world the truth...
Gwen is an accomplished and objective journalist who has always been able to keep her personal views out of her work. She was brilliant in 2004 and she will be stellar tomorrow. This is a conservative attempt to stall and nothing more. The woman will do her job the way she always does and the country will see each candidate in their own words.
Ifil has not injected her opinions into coverage thus far and I anticipate her being nonpartisan and asking objective questions. She is a great JOURNALIST!!!!! deal with it!!!!

8. I hear Gwen Ifill is writing an Obama book that's due to be released in early 2009. Ifill should excuse herself, and the broken ankle is the perfect reason. The conservatives are already talking about Ifill's pro Obama book in reference to this debate, and how unfair the media has been to Palin. WAKE UP OBAMA CAMP! DON'T LET THIS ERROR IN JUDGEMENT BURY YOUR CHANCES IN NOVEMBER. If the Obama people don't want crying right-wingers and women voters on the fence, all over them, they need to find a sub or add a pro GOP moderator. If I were in the Obama campaign loop, I would not want Ifill to ask the questions. If Palin goes down in flames, which she might, the GOP will have an excuse, and they'll get many Palin sympathy votes on Nov 4. Believe me, the GOP's praying Ifill stays, so they can cry foul until election day. If Palin does well, they'll say she held her own even though the fix was in. IT'S A NO WIN WITH IFILL! OBAMA CAMP, WAKE UP!

11. You all sound like these candidates will be hit with surprise questions. If that happens, then it was all Ifill. The ususal script is pre arranged questions...

12. Everybody don't expect a fair debate! Obama, Gwen and the dems have stacked the deck against Palin.
Gwen Ifill says she is not close to Obama! It don't quiet look like that here. Those who pray together, will play together!

13. How low can the GOP go? They are so desperate and afraid its funny to watch supposedly intelligent republicans lower themselves to lying to any fool who believes that they believe that Palin is presidential material. What a JOKE. The only ones republicans are fooling is themselves if they think AMERICANS are going to be "Moose Winked" into voting for MCPalin. Sure some will be "Moose Winked" but the majority of Americans realize our countrys economic,foreign,educational policies are far more important than turning this presidential race into a popularity contest...So go on and sit down somewhere and prepare to cringe over Palins debate performance tonight, Oh thats right the bars have been lowered so far down she cant lose tonight...Now that IS sexism...
