Plus Palin has lead something more than a rally.

Noonan: "I think they went for this — excuse me– political bulls–t about narratives. Every time the Republicans do that, because that's not where they live and it's not what they're good at, they blow it."

Murphy: "You know what's really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical."

Yes she was mayor of a town with a population of little more 5,000 according to the last census, and has been governor of Alaska (the 47th state in terms of population) for just under two years. Whoa!

I just think that it's funny that Obama's lack of experience is a negative according to the Republicans but Mrs Palin's less than impressive record of experience is above reproach.

 

edited to change: "months" to "years" & some sloppy typos

What were seeing is people matching up Palin to Obama, when the race is really between Obama and McCain. Does McCain really need us to forget about him three months before the election?

We didn't bring lack of experience to the table, the republicans have been making it an issue for months concerning Barack, then you all screw up and throw Caribou Barbie at us and cry foul when we remind you, what you were bitching about earlier.

 

Edited to add: I didn't make up the Caribou thing, I read it on another forum thing and it cracked my shit up.

Mike, it's not fussing.  It's feeling pity for you.

"Thankfully he felt the need to take a job though, as a soldier."

Obama was a community worker and a law professor. Both men have done a lot.

Scott, it is indeed, a heavy burden, having to tolerate fussing and crying from an infantile moron while trying to carry on a political discussion, but don't feel pity for us - you are our burden, and we have to live with it.
