Campaign Spot reader Bill offers a good idea:Maybe Governor Palin could compliment Ms Ifill on her book.
Palin (to Ifill): I understand you’ve been writing a book about black political progress, including Senator Obama’s campaign. I’d just like to take a moment to congratulate you on your literary endeavor and wish you great success. Having written many speeches, political and others, I find that it’s very rewarding to translate your personal, original thoughts to text — don’t you agree, Senator Biden?
UPDATE: Oh, yeah, she'll be objective. She's already displayed her disdain for Palin, boldly and publicly.
UPDATE: I'm sure glad I was only drinking water when I read ExLg's list of Ifill's prepared questions. Cola would have been much harder to clean out of my keyboard.
BTW: I don't want Ifill to recuse herself or be replaced. This may be the closest we will get to transparency in this whole campaign. Her bias is well known. Her conflict of interest is obvious and documented. Better her than someone the general public believes to be "objective".
UPDATE: Treacher has some questions, too.
