I question the use of pbs people anyway and whether this woman is impartial or not I don’t know, but it certainly looks bad for her to remain as moderator.

Ifill said Wednesday that she hasn't even written her chapter on Obama for the book "The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama," ... I call total B.S. on that statement. The book is subtitled "the Age of Obama' and she's not even written the chapters about Obama? And the book is being released in 3 months?

How much you want to bet one of the questions will be something like...”How would you work to improve the situation of minority groups in this country?”

So...does Gwen's answer mean she does not have a financial interest in the outcome of the election ?
No, it does not. Case closed. At least, her appearance requires a disclaimer at the top of the show.

I support McCain 100% but if this backfires, i will be the first to say....Is McCain a dud like Bush??? Where is the fight in McCain, im waiting for his fight?
To: SkyPilot
She is racially biased, and politically biased. Not ready for primetime debate moderator. Maybe she will grow intellectually, but until then, she should be canned as an appropriate moderator for debates between people that view the country as populated by Americans...not black Americans, and democrat Americans. Extremely poor choice for moderator.

Ifill has used the race card to get where she is. She is the quintessential Liberal affirmative action hire.

I don't know of anyone who is questioning her impartiality. That would be sort of like questioning whether water is wet or fire is hot. She's in the tank for Obama. 99.9% of the MSM "journalists" are in the tank for Obama. She probably is no less impartial than most of the rest of them.
What I do find truly remarkable is how quickly she whips out the race card. Who wants to bet that she asks at least one question along these lines: "Ms. Palin, what do you say to all of your supporters who are voting against Obama solely because he is black?"

...is writing a book that includes material on Barack Obama. "Includes material"?????

"The proof is in the pudding. They can watch the debate tomorrow night and make their own decisions about whether or not I've done my job." How, pray tell, will we know when you or someone on your staff prepped Biden on which questions would be asked? Since that part of your "moderating" won't be on display, how about if we require that questions be drawn from a drum, witnessed by both parties immediately before the debate?
Not that we don't trust you or anything.

“The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama”
The title says it all. She will benefit financially if Obama wins. Clear conflict of interest and its not even a close case.

Not that we don't trust you or anything. I'd be really worried if they said they were putting Obama in a "Cone of Silence".
