Well she better watch out if she tries to cross the McCain campaign:

"...I think the moderator will have some...some.. questions to answer...uh.....if they do go so heavily foreign policy..."

- Nancy Pfotehnauer, Sr. McCain Campaign Strategist

Yeah, doesn't Gwen Ifil know that she needs to beware of the minders? WTF.

Question to Gwen Ifil from McCain campaign: Why did you go so heavily into foreign policy?

Answer by Ifil: Because the United States is engaged in two wars, China owns a big percentage of our assets, North Korea has nukes, Amadinajad is threatening to destroy Israel and 7 years after being attacked by Osama Bin Ladin, he's still out there somewhere. Next question?

what are they suppose to ask her about? Icing? Checking? Russian borscht? Pipeline politics? Subsistence hunting? All hot issues in the lower 48! How about increased FEDERAL funding for roads and bridges, where will she come down on that issue?

They should be talking to her and asking her about Alaskan airspace and how they monitor Russkies when they fly over head.

Every time someone from the McCain campaign opens their mouth in defense of Palin, they merely advertise the fact that they selected a completely unqualified candidate. What happened to their "pit bull"? What a bunch of clowns.
