Anyone watching this?

I honestly think Hillary might have lost it. She seems to think there is some conspiracy against her, she keeps saying how it's "curious" that she always gets the first question. I was honestly laughing...

The Farrakhan thing is absolutely sleazy journalism to begin with. Here is the logic that's going through the head of the moderators here.

1. The title of Obama's book, "The Audacity of Hope," came from a sermon delivered by Jeremiah Wright. Wright is Obama's pastor.

2. Wright is the "head" of United Trinity Church.

3. Wright said that Louis Farrakhan "epitomizes greatness."

4. Wright went with Farrakhan in 1984 to visit Muammar Gaddafi in Libya.

5. Farrakhan has said that Judaism is a "gutter religion."

6. Wright said that when Obama's political opponents found out about the Libya visit, Obama's Jewish support would dry up "faster than a snowball in Hell."

Russert's question is then "What do you do to assure Jewish Americans... you are consistent with issues regarding Israel and not in any way suggesting that Farrakhan epitomizes greatness."

This makes NO sense. If you have to stretch that far to attack a candidate, you really need to be laughed off the airwaves permanently.

what does that have anything to do with the peoples interest? people want to know their ideas on healthcare, economy, and the war. not some shady anti-semetic.
