For what it is worth, I think we should have two moderators for the Vice Presidential debate tonight (wishful thinking):
1. Al Gore
2. Dan Quale
Their respective experience as past Vice President's would lead to some very interesting and quite possibly entertaining questions and answers. They could make both Palin and Biden look either very strong or very weak, but in any event would probably result in some excellent, (well, ok, very interesting), TV for all of us.
Considering how scripted the format will be, this really is not even close to being a true debate.
What do all of you folks think.....Am I on to something here?
To carry the "prior VP" concept a bit further, wouldn't it actually be interesting to have some of the prior VP's at some sort of panel discussion, to talk about their perspectives on historical events? If you could keep present-day politics and partisanship out of it, it could be fascinating. Sort of the idea of just having a beer with some of these guys.
I LOVE both of those ideas. As to Ifill's bias, her background, writings and statements make it clear that she is incredibly biased and in the tank for Obama. How well she conceals that bias will be plain to see later tonight.
