McCain Ad: Palin More Qualified Than Obama

This Ought to Leave a Mark. Dems Thought The Experience Question Was Behind Them.

Editors published 9/3/2008 8:21:00 PM
Politico.com reports:
The McCain campaign will launch a television ad directly comparing Governor Palin’s executive experience as a governor who oversees 24,000 state employees, 14 statewide cabinet agencies and a 10 billion dollar budget to Barack Obama’s experience as a one-term junior Senator from Illinois.
This should get the liberals revved up.

Being a Mayor and now a Governor has given Ms. Palin the exposure to Governmental functions. To cap it all, her spunk and boldness in taking on te established types are a fresh breath to American politics.
Its pretty telling that Obama is adding "Campaign" management as "Executive" experience.
I hope the media can stop being Obama's water boy and give some credence to the world of journalism by calling it as they see it.

The words "qualified" and "experienced" only dance around the real requirement for high office which is capability. Obama isn't just inexperienced and unqualified to be president but also terminally incapable. In other words, he never will be up to the job. If he had any talent for leadership at all, it would have shown itself by now.
Sarah Palin, on the other hand, was showing leadership early as a high school athlete, and demonstrating good judgement as Mayor of her hometown.
It is actually funny that Obama tries to forget that she isn't a small town mayor any longer, but a sitting governor making major decisions. Next to her, he looks like a child bragging about how long he can hold his breath.

Plus, Governor Palin is the commander-in-chief of the National Guard in the largest state in the Union. The Alaska Naitonal Guard maintains 116 armories and is in 88 different communities. According to http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/agency/army/arng-ak.htm "The governor commands AKNG while it is not in active federal service. The principal executive officer of DMVA, the adjutant general, is an appointee of the governor." On Senator Obama's resume exactly how much military experience does he have?

I hope they point out that Obama's whole time as US Senator has been spent running for POTUS. He's not even qualified to be a Senator. Also why is the Obama camp trying to say he is more qualified than Palin anyway? He is not running for VEEP. She is a hypothetical heartbeat away from POTUS but we would be electing him to be that.

I think when the dust all settles, people will make the wise decision and not put Obama in office...the last president we had that spoke so well and gave great speach's was more concerned who was on their knees in the Oval office than crossing the bridge of bipartasinship and getting important issues passed.

I would rather have an inexperienced Govenor, than an inexperienced Senator, in the Oval Office. If more people had of taken civil/social studies, in school, they'd know the difference between a Govenor/Senator. Being a great orator does not make for a great President. The world is too scary for someone unproven. BTW...I have NEVER heard/seen more sexist comments about a candidate.
Go, Sarah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
