Ifill biased

PBS "Washington Week" anchor Gwen Ifill will be the moderator for tomorrow night's vice presidential debate. Ifill is coming out with a book, on Inaugaration Day, 20 January, 2009 entitled, "The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama". The McCain camp, when they were negotiating the setup for the debates, did not realize that Ifill was coming out with a "pro-Obama" book. This begs two questions: 1. how "objective" will Ifill be at tmorrow night's debate?; and 2. why didn't the McCain campaign properoly vette Ifill?...New polls released today show that Senator Obama has broken the 50% mark in three key battleground states: Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania...Sarah Palin is in Sedona, AZ at "Debate School" getting ready for tomorrow evening's showdown with Senator Joe Biden. Many conservatives are nervous about how she'll perform...The Senate is getting ready to vote on its own version of the bailout that has some new goodies including raising the FDIC limit to $250,000.00and amending the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). It should also include the abolition of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Community Reform Act.

There are 34 days until the presidential election. There are 110 days left in the Bush presidency. And, it's been 2,774 days since there's been a terrorist attack on US soil. Good day and God bless!
