17. I don't want her to step down - they know Sarah won't get anywhere by batting her eyes at Gwen... |
|
...that's why they're complaining.

3. It wouldn't matter who the moderator was... |
|
Palin's rambling, incoherent responses make her look like an idiot.
They are just setting up an excuse for her monumental failure tomorrow night.

5. They're trying for a no-lose situation. |
|
If she breaks down in tears or foams at the mouth & bites somebody, it's all Ifill's fault.
I really hope Ifill is replaced, for our sake and her own..

11. If that were the case, it would be a pretty stupid argument for them to make. |
|
She could break down in tears or foam at the mouth because of a debate moderator, but we're expected to believe she can handle delicate talks with foreign leaders?

14. I don't recall Dems whining in 2004 |
|
when Ifill was the moderator - she is a good friend of Condi Rice, if I recall?

15. Ifill is very even and unremarkable |
|
at least in my opinion. There is nothing about her that is annoying or irritating and her personality is so low key.
They're not going to be able to use her as the reason for Palin's bad night. (well, I know in their little heads they will)

16. They have their excuse now for when Palin implodes the room with her vacuity. |

18. Have you ever heard the term "working the refs"? |
|
Ifill, from my viewpoint is already in the pocket of Corporate America. The problem for the Rethuglicans, is that she doesn't want to blow a prosperous gig. Ifill sees that the Rethugs are history. They just don't want someone who was on there side to help take them down. Sorry thugs, some whores know on which side there bread is buttered (and who put it there).
