    How about the notion that running a state is more similar to running a country than NOT running a state? How about that notion?

    That consideration makes me even more likely to vote for McCain. And getting her some experience as VP makes me more likely to vote for her in 4-8 years.

    One thing about this pick, it should definitely add some fuel to the Clintons' motivation to work for Obama's election.

    I doubt she sees a 74-year-old Joe Biden as a big rival in 2016.

    Sarah Palin on the other hand...

    Hillary wants to be president, and she wants to be the first woman to do so.

    Fact is, you surrendered a long time ago. She's run a state, she's given birth WHILE RUNNING A STATE, she's struggled with the idea of abortion in her own life, and she's got a son in the Army.

    That's a checkmate right there. Or, in your terms...

    KING HER!

    Come on no girl is hot enough to do that.

    From first glance she seems a very good fit for him, hell think she could be the president one day.

    You guys might catch us up one day.

    Another plus. Someone who actually knows about energy... But he's not running so it's kinda moot.

    So by that standard, John McCain's sole qualification for president is having a son in the military. Gotcha.

    While Palin is governor of a small state in population, I would like to point out that it is a state geographically larger than some 100 countries around the world.

    And it is a state that is roughly 20% or so of U.S. land area that produces 25% of U.S. domestic crude oil.

    I have. He votes with his heart, and does what he thinks is right, and I commend him for that. However, the issue isn't Obama vs. McCain or Clinton in this argument. Its time spent as a senator versus time spent as a governor in terms of similarity of role to the presidency.

    I see your purposely missing the point AND desperately looking for a way to cut 'n run (like Obama) from this discussion. I didn't say being governor qualified you to be president. I've said all along that executive experience makes you MORE qualified to be president. I know it's a subtle distinction but I have confidence in you. You can get it.

    So... when I talk, do you hear words, or is it that Charlie Brown 'Wah wah wah' thing? I'm having a hard time keeping up as you tilt and wheel through myriad arguments while grasping at straws.

    To clarify:

    Obama vs. Palin. Qualifications. Nothing else matters now between you and I.

    I await a response in the form of a REFUTATION, which you have yet to do.

    False analogy. Obama isn't running against Palin.

    Obama doesn't have the qualifications to run against her much less McCain.

    I'm not making an analogy, we're talking about overall experience between two people objectively.

    Does Obama have more experience in Administrative Government in an executive capacity than Sarah Palin?

    Yes or no will do.

    The first is questionable, and the second is an outright lie.

    Obama has never been a governor, so the answer is no.

    But John McCain has never been a governor either, so this is a road you might not want to go down.
