McCain: Obama Lacks Experience Running 5,000-Person Town in Alaska,
But Extolls Veep Pick’s Qualifications

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz) used the announcement of his vice-presidential
pick, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, to blast the experience of his
Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill), arguing that Sen. Obama has
never been the mayor of a 5,000-person town.

"The Presidency of the United States of America is the toughest job on
the planet," Sen. McCain said. "And my friends, the best testing ground
for that job is being the mayor of a 5,000-person town in Alaska."

Sen. McCain unleashed a savage attack on Sen. Obama, claiming that his
Democratic opponent would be "at a loss" when faced with the challenges
of running a 5000-person municipality in Alaska.

"Let's say a constituent calls you and says that a caribou has wandered
onto his front lawn," he said. "My friends, Barack Obama wouldn't know
what to do."

He used the hypothetical situation to draw a sharp contrast with his
vice-presidential choice: "Sarah Palin would take out her gun and shoot
the caribou."

Mr. McCain said that an understanding of foreign affairs, Congress, and
other issues that a president has to deal with is "overrated," adding,
"That's what ‘Presidency for Dummies' is for."

While saying that her "vast experience" was the main reason he selected
Gov. Palin, Sen. McCain said that she also had the other three
qualifications he was looking for in a vice president: "She is pro-life,
pro-drilling, and willing to housesit."

McCain is right though, Obama has NEVER run anything successfully. He
has NO executive experience at all. Palin is at least Governor and
has that experience.

Actually, Palin has more executive experience than Biden and Obama
combined. Obama bringing this up only shows his inexperience and lack
of knowledge.

She is totally completely uniquely unprepared to fill McCain's shoes in
an instant if he is disabled or dies suddenly.

Obama is totally, completely, and uniquely unprepared to fill Bush's shoes
should he leave office in January.

But *you* are a respectable guy.
