VP Moderator Any wonder why the Obama team refused to conduct town hall style debates? It would be much harder to get hand picked questions like I'm sure we will see Thursday....what a damn joke!! |

Aren't Obama and McCain doing a town-hall style debate next? This could be a huge opportunity for Palin. If she gets tough questions and answers them well it would be a big boost for her and McCain. |

...just for the record i don't think someone who CLEARLY supports one party over the other should be moderating any debate...my co-worker just told me that she also managed Gore's campaign... |

I think your co-worker has his black female political commentators mixed up. Donna brazile managed Gore's campaign. That being said, it obviously isn't a good situation, but are any of these talking heads unbiased? |

I am not OK with that either bri....not sure who you are referring to, but I love it when your only answer to a clear WRONG is to point out another WRONG. |

I can't stand either candidate, but I do think if you are writing "The Age of Obama," you're probably not objective enough to moderate a VP debate. Just my two cents. |

I agree, unless it ridicules American society as a place where very little experience combined with great style can overcome knowledge and substance. |

I often think of Tim Russert, and how much he would have loved this campaign for the Presidency. Rest in peace, Tim... we miss you. :priest: |
