So . . . Sarah Palin

Before today, I would have asked, "Who?"

What do you think?

I think McCain is nuts. But then, I thought that anyway.

This undercuts his argument that Obama's too inexperienced to be president. If he really thinks he's going to get the women's vote this way, well, it just shows you how little he thinks of women.

I'm glad it's not Pawlenty.

Yup; I agree: Obama's too inexperienced to be president. And the folks who are objecting to Palin as VP are -- unwittingly -- agreeing with you and me.

Please don't put words in my mouth. I never said Palin was too inexperienced, only that, in tapping her, McCain has undercut one of his own arguments about Obama.

It takes more than "experience" to make a good president.

And more than sweethart real estate deals with a convicted Rezo. Err: felon.

Right; what the person said below. The "inexperience" frame is a Republican one, not a Democratic one. The cognitive dissonance is on the Republican side, and seems like a needless giveaway.
