Via Think Progress, video of vice presidential debate moderator Gwen Ifill who appeared on Meet the Press over the weekend. Ifill commented on Gov. Sarah Palin's evasive answers and refusal to answers many questions—by one report, "on at least 10 occasions, Palin gave answers that were nonspecific, completely generic, pivoted away from the question at hand, or simply ignored it."
Gwen Ifill said that Palin "more than ignored" her questions. "Blew me off I think is the technical term."
Maybe Gwen should take some lessons from Queen Latifa. That Baked Alaskan shiksa is certainly trying to copy Tina Fey.

That debate was a bit much. Palin said she would answer what she wanted to. Aint that a blip.

I guess when you don't know what to say and have only been 'trained' to answer initial questions, and not follow up ones, I'd keep my mouth shut too, and blow off the moderator:-) Palin is a joke as vice-president. Tina Fey would be much better. At least she is intelligent, articulate, and interesting. Tina Fey FOR Vice-President!!!
