I predict Gwen Ifill will do a far better job moderating the debate than Palin will do answering the questions.

Gwen Ifill was one of the Obama hacks, sent out by the Obama campaign as one of their minions that couldn't be traced directly back to Obama, to spread the offensive and sexist message that Palin cannot run for VP and be the mother of five children.

"...what advice can you give her?"

That's the bias?

Please.

There is no evidence of bias ANYWHERE on that clip.

Try again.

Oh, but wait Jovial.... she's a "minion" an "Obamabot" a "lib" or whatever label you think you can give her if you are wearing righty glasses. It must mean something!

She is a woman that wrote about about Black folks in politics, what is the questionable bias, the fact that she is Black and they are Black?

I've seen more bias in this thread than I have from Ifill.

Are you really as much of a sexist as your posts indicate or do you look down on everyone this way? This woman is the GOVERNOR of a state - who beat down two very prominent long standing political veterans and got voted into her position by hundreds of thousands of people. Surely you are not implying that the populous of entire state are just idiots?

Ifill is biased - she stands to gain financially, and she should have recused herself based on the potential for the appearance of impropriety, heck, otherwise we should have just held this debate on the unbiased "THE VIEW".

How is she biased?

Uh that is usually why you sell a book is to gain financially, what is your point?

She wrote a book on Black folks in politics, where is the impropriety?

Again I ask how is she biased?

Okay--for those of you who don't seem to "get it." Ifill stands to make a lot of money on her book about Obama----more so IF he wins. It's a question of having a conflict of interest. But obviously you all think that's just fine----as long as that conflict of interest favors Obama. Maybe she can be fair and professional. But it does NOT negate the conflict of interest she has.
