I take it Chuck that you haven't investigated "The Breakthrough" and what it is about. You won't get the jist of the book by reading WorldNutDaily articles. Here's a 3 minute video explaining the book without the WND distortions.
You don't actually frequent the WorldNutDaily site do you Chuck?

Beem... did you actually read the WND article? There's nothing in there you alluded to. In fact, it links to the same video. Assume much?
Now, let me ask a question... would you have a problem with a moderator who was pro-Palin, who had a book coming out talking about how Palin was changing the nation for the better? Who was forging a "bold new path to political power" for women? Would you? Who had been criticized before for bias in favor of republicans?

Were those pro Bush books theo?
Why not take someone off the reservation like a libertarian who is an equal opportunity offender or someone like Bill Oriely who is not exactly firmly in either camp. Ok oriely is a bit of a stretch but. harry browne perhaps?
or some lower level constitution party/ libertarian party moderator who is not already a politician but rather just a thinker.
Why would is a reporter be the best choice for moderator?
I vote for Tony Macrini (he is a norfolk Talk AM790 show host, but he is not bound to a party) because he is an equal opportunity offender that does not like either candidate and wont let either one get away with non answers.
No because she is in bed with one of the candidates.
Oreily (maybe (not completely in bed with candidates)
Harry Browne (Really not in bed with candidates)
Tony Macrini (by far best choice hates both candidates and would like both of them to look equally bad.)
The right, led by Michelle Malkin, is up in arms about the fact that Gwen Ifill is writing a totally mega-positive book about the fact that Barack Obama is black and that’s both unusual and progressive in American presidential politics.
But there is nothing “moderate” about where Ifill stands on Barack Obama. She’s so far in the tank for the Democrat presidential candidate, her oxygen delivery line is running out. In an imaginary world where liberal journalists are held to the same standards as everyone else, Ifill would be required to make a full disclosure at the start of the debate. She would be required to turn to the cameras and tell the national audience that she has a book coming out on January 20, 2009 – a date that just happens to coincide with the inauguration of the next president of the United States. The title of Ifill’s book? “Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama.” Nonpartisan my foot.
There’s only one conceptual problem here: Ifill’s book is a study of Obama’s impact on politics, particularly in light of the fact that he’s, you know, black. Or Arab. Or Martian, whatever, the point is that he’s different. Alas, the recognition of this fact is improper in light of the fact that John McCain is, too, different.
Ifill and her publisher are banking on an Obama/Biden win to buoy her book sales. The moderator expected to treat both sides fairly has grandiosely declared this the “Age of Obama.” Can you imagine a right-leaning journalist writing a book about the “stunning” McCain campaign and its “bold” path to reform timed for release on Inauguration Day – and then expecting a slot as a moderator for the nation’s sole vice presidential debate?
In a way, I’m glad that Malkin is so falsely color blind that she’s willing to pretend that a black man being a credible frontrunner for the presidency of the United States is the same thing as an old white guy grousing about how things in Washington need to be reformed. It’s like the person who turns the channel when an athlete is nearing a scoring benchmark that’s stood for forty years because hey, people play this sport every damn day. Well, it’s like that, except damaging to the very fabric of our nation.
Uhh, ... isn't the book being released on inauguration day? ( that is January 20th. Right? )
Seems like a financial interest in the final outcome would be in her interests.
Bill
Yeah, because if she were to release it earlier you could then rationalize she's aiming to influence the outcome of the election instead.
