she could have been honest from the get go with the commission....she did not let anyone know about the book that was involved with picking the moderator...which is yet another concern....proof she is not honest

PBS is probably the most neutral station on TV, outside of C-SPAN. And Iffil is a lot more center than Gibson of ABC. What other woman is more capable and neutral than Gwen?

Get a clue, crowe and shrew. Even McCain says she will be impartial. http://voices.washingtonp ost.com/the-trail/2008/10 /01/ifills_book_is_no_sec ret.html

So you are naturally assuming that the book in question is completely biased in favor of him.

Actually that wasn't a debate.  Obama and McCain were invited to to Saddleback to answer questions and express their views to the Evangelical Christian Community.  It was agreed they would both recieve the same questions, and wouldn't be in the room at the same time, it wasn't a debate.

It's not for sale yet.  It's due out on inauguration day in January.

I guess you forgot about Obama accusing Rick Warren of giving McCain the questions ahead of time.
