This is a critical time in our nation. Indeed is it an intense battle. Many of God’s children are praying.

Sometimes, when I’m feeling optimistic, I imagine that Sarah’s just like us FReepers and after the debate she showed John where he should have pounced on Obama.

She’s good for him I think.

I went and checked to be sure before posting again... It was indeed on Monday night at her home...

Oh, geesh... Now the pink-scarfed lady just called Ifill one of the “great moderators” that the commission gets to work with...

She’s being helped to her seat, and is on crutches.

reminds me of George Carlin's perfect woman ... a beautiful nymphomaniac coke dealer with her own Ferrari agency.

He updated it subsequently , but that one definitely won't endear me to many if posted

Wow! 3,100 credentialed media at the debate - jer33 3

Everyone of them working on a negative spin on Palin. - mylife

The Associated Press is already writing about this debate in the PAST TENSE.

From news.yahoo.com:

By JIM KUHNHENN, Associated Press Writer1 hour, 23 minutes ago

The stakes were sky-high for Sarah Palin, not to mention Republican presidential candidate John McCain, as she debated Democrat Joe Biden Thursday night amid falling poll numbers and growing voter skepticism.

The Republican governor of Alaska faced off against the Democratic senator from Delaware in the most-anticipated vice presidential debate ever as surveys showed Barack Obama and Biden in a strengthening position for the Nov. 4 election...

I’m more nervous than I was when W debated. I hope we see the Sarah at the convention and not the Sarah Katie and Charlie stabbed. I’m going to turn off the TV and read this thread.

I am too, Aria. I can't watch, I am just too nervous.

“has anybody drug tested the woman to see if she’s be able to carry out her duties as moderator /sarc?”

Well they ARE claiming that she is UNABLE to take questions at this time.

UPDATE: A Newshour spokeswoman returned my call to Ifill. The spokeswoman said that “as a journalist, Gwen has to focus on the task at hand: preparing for the debate” (adding that “way before this issue came up, [Ifill] decided not to do interviews” in advance of the debate). I asked the spokeswoman about the appearance of conflict and she replied that Ifill had “proven herself to be fair and balanced and no doubt will be” tomorrow night.

I was then bumped up to the spokeswoman’s boss who said that Ifill had “set this aside,” was focusing on debate prep, and that he didn’t “think Gwen is in a position” to talk to me about this but that he would try to reach her and ask.

If I hear anything futher, I’ll update again.

Just a question — I have not heard Ifill speak a lot. She does seem to be slurring a slight bit on some words. Due to the pain meds she is undoubtedly on?

Wondering if anyone familiar with her speaking voice thinks she sounds “normal”. :)

The best parts of the Palin interview were left on the cutting room floor...

That should have been the only Republican response to the debate criticisms. In these interviews, context is everything. If the newspaper question came after several BS questions, I can see her giving a "why the Hell did you ask me that" response. We needed to see the whole thing and Republicans along with the McCain campaign should have spoken to this with one voice.
