Gwen Ifill was a true journalist: fair (Quadruple Barf Headline from LA Times)

I thought Gwen did a good job.

I particularly loved Gwen's question on climate. Being in the ag industry I completely agree with what Palin said.

Thanks for the summary of Ifill’s extremely unfair moderating. Folks, it’s not just the questions she asked! She gave O’Biden the last word on all most every question.

She gave the two-questions-at-once on health care that clearly set up Palin and favored Biden. This was not in the agreed format!

She had two separate questions on nuclear weapons that clearly were softball set-ups for Biden to talk about Barry’s nuclear weapons bill. This topic is high on the Dem talking points list the last few days. You can’t tell me that wasn’t set up by Ifill.

Finally, the last question, “What would I have done differently as a senator?”. Biden was way to ready with a pat answer for that one.

Ifill was extremely biased and should never be allowed to moderate one of these debates again.

the rest of their potential customers don’t know how to read in English

there...fixed it!

I didn’t hear it; but I saw Palin and her family leave the stage and there was something there. I also saw Biden’s wife give Sarah a curt and short sarcastic answer which I didn’t not hear the exact exchange. It was Biden’s wife’s face that said it all. A lot of jealously there.

These bitter, nasty people can't hide what they are. The dark ones cannot stand the light of truth.

I hope millions of undecided voters saw that exchange too and see the Obama/Biden campaign for what they are: fakes.

I noticed, too, that Biden got a lot more speaking time than Palin did.

Just so long as most voters were looking at her and not listening to him.

As powerful as the media thinks they are, they can't make up our minds for us, though they would like to.

That's the part that scares them.

I find this peculiar:

CNN Transcript:
“I want to let you know what I did as a mayor and as a governor. And I may not answer the questions that either the moderator or you want to hear, but I’m going to talk straight to the American people and let them know my track record also.”

Actual words of Palin (CNN’s transcript ommitted words in brackets):
“I want to let you know what I did as a mayor and as a governor. And I may not answer the questions [the way] that either the moderator or you want to hear, but I’m going to talk straight to the American people and let them know my track record also. “

True

[SkyPilot]

What side of the coin gives one FIRST and LAST chance to speak?

Rush noted this in his opening monologue.

He said the ratio of Biden "last words" was 3:1 his advantage over Palin.

Great analysis in #46.

Finally, the last question, “What would I have done differently as a senator?”. Biden was way to ready with a pat answer for that one.

That was the one that clinched it for me.

Plugs had a 7 point answer with 5 sub-bullets. He was itching to answer even before Obama's Disciple starting asking it.

Remember - this is the Joe Biden who tried to rip apart Clarance Thomas with quotes that Thomas never made, or were taken completely out of context.

Biden is dirty. Period.

Dear God,

Please let an e-mail or leak be known if Ifill cheated and gave the Obama/Biden Campaign the questions ahead of time.

Give us justice and truth.

I stand with you on faith that prayer will be answered! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
