		<description>#83 MCMetal Says: 

If McDepends wanted to garner the female vote, he should have picked a woman that had more qualifications and experience………..Like Graham.

 
 **Actually From what I&#039;ve seen.  If McCain&#039;s choice was to present a skirt in 3 inch heels to pander out the female vote it wouldn&#039;t be Lindsey Graham. 
 
 I believe Rudy Guliani has been known to wear a skirt and heels.  And he has more experience.

 At public service, that is.  Palin may have more experience at wearing the skirt and heels.</description>

		<description>&gt; What other accomplishments and
&gt; experience does he have?

Having the good judgement to see that bringing &quot;dumbocracy&quot; to Iraq would basically be turning the keys to one of the most oil rich countries over to the islamic republic of iran. You know, the guys uncle Ronnie and daddy Rumsfeld wanted saddam to gas? 

What good is all the &quot;experience&quot; in the world if someone has terrible judgement? So far, john mccains biggest claim to fame is that he couldnt avoid enemy fire. He apparently doesnt understand islam well enough to even know the difference between sunni and shia.

All the experience in the world cant compensate for terrible judgement.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Fred Says:
    But bear in mind that the 90% approval rating came from one of the most conservative, and reddest-of-the-red states out there. And that approval rating came before a series of events that have lead many Alaskans to question the governor’s once pristine image.
From Bilbo’s link about what Alaskans think about this.&lt;/em&gt;

That 90% approval rating was shortly after she took office.  Since then her approval ratings have plummeted to 67%.  I know that still sounds high, but considering the fact that Stevens is still pulling high numbers even though he is totally corrupt, it tells you more about the people who live in Alaska than it does about Palin.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;#backup Says:
Obama has run an outstanding campaign. What other accomplishments and experience does he have?&lt;/em&gt;

Graduated Harvard Law school at the top of his class.

Consititutional law professor for 10 years.

Highly respected community organizer for years.

8 years in the state legislature of a state where the major city, Chicago, has more citizens than the entire state of Alaska.

Four years as a Senator.

Yeah, that really sounds like a thin resume to me.</description>

Second, Sarah Palin more qualified than Obama and Biden &lt;i&gt;combined&lt;/i&gt;? Since when granting a huge subsidy to a Canadian oil company counts as foreign policy experience? 

That argument is as ridiculous as the idea that Palin has foreign policy experience because Alaska is, you know, right next to Russia. Seriously, what are you on?</description>
