CNN's Wolf Blitzer has been warned not to focus Thursday's Dem debate on Hillary. 'This campaign is about issues, not on who we can bring down and destroy,' top Clinton insider explains. 'Blitzer should not go down to the levels of character attack and pull 'a Russert.'' Blitzer is set to moderate debate from Vegas, with questions also being posed by Suzanne Malveaux... Developing.

You all wait. She’ll get softball questions. Then for the next two weeks all the talking heads will allave cerebral orgasms telling us on how well she performed — and how 2 weeks ago was just a small “speed bump” on her downhill ride to the nomination.

If Wolf had any guts he simply phrase his first question to Hillary like this: Since I have been forewarned not to put any tough questions to you, Ms. Clinton, what question would you like me to ask?

Let's get it right. Russert did not ask her a tough question. He asked her a question based upon her waffling and contradictory position. That was an obvious question.

Here's a tough question. Why didn't you fire the guy you hired who illegally obtained 900 FBI files? What should a woman do when another woman accuses her husband of rape? And there are so many other "tough" questions.

What you saw is Russert treating Hillary like any other candidate and she imploded.

Wow, now Hillary is threatening reporters? Hey Wolf, better keep your cat in the house for the next couple of weeks and keep your car in the garage. What’s it gonna be like if this fascist gets elected?

Wolf Blitzer is probably highly outraged at this story, and I predict that he will preface his moderation duties at the Vegas debate by saying:

"There have been some news reports that I was 'warned' not to give Senator Clinton a hard time during this debate, and I want to go on the record by saying that NOBODY tells me how to moderate a debate, I take instructions from NO campaign, from NO political advisors, from NO elected officials, and I will ask any questions that I deem pertinent to this debate, and if any candidate doesn't like that, they should recall the words of Finley Peter Dunne who said "politics ain't beanbag", and if they can't take questions from the media, how on Earth can they expect to serve as President of the United States?"

Now for the first question, to Senator Clinton:

Senator? I may be a member of the media, but like many Americans, I do worry about global warming, could you tell us about how you would approach this problem which affects us all?"

LoL - I sat next to Chris Wallace on a train several weeks ago and I asked him about that interview with Clinton. He said he was afraid Clinton was going tp punch him - said he is a really big man and uses his size to intimidate people. Wolf Blitzer is a small man - I’ll bet they sic Bubba on him before this debate starts.

Are you going to let the Clinton's drive you out to the Hamptons or will you be a man?

And the Hillary fanatics will be telling the media to rip apart her opponents.
Scary to think of the control Hillary will have over the media when she is crowned Queen President by Divine Right.

Take your ball and go home Hillary.

Just further evidence you’re not competent for office.

Blitzer should not go down to the levels of character attack and pull 'a Russert.''

NEW CATCH PHRASE -- "Pulling A Russert"

We have 'Borking' (Borked), 'Swiftboating' (Swiftboated), and now 'Pulling A Russert' (Pulled A Russert).

oops almost forgot - 'Getting A Monica'
