I didn't realize that ABC brought back Commander in Chief. Given that McCain is all of 89 or 90, she could be the next president, much like the TV drama.
I've been critical of Obama's campaign playing right into McCain's hand. McCain must have decided to return the favor with his selection of Palin.
Look, she seems like a great conservative. But how do you bang on someone's lack of experience with this selection. This selection communicates that experience isn't important.
You can mix the four of these picks any number of ways and they look like the same thing.
McCain must have some kick ass polling that shows some truly pissed off Clinton supporters.
Unlike these other three senatorial ding dongs and derelicts, at least Palin has actually run something. These other dolts have never even run a lemonade stand.

A common argument I've heard today, except McCain can still argue on the inexperience of Obama as prez. If they try and pick on her inexperience, the reponse is to the effect of 'If she is too inexperienced to be VP, Obama must be too inexperienced for president'. It doesn't work the other way around since her inexperience has led her to the VP position, not the number 1 spot like Obama.
If they want to pull the 'but she's one step from the number 1 spot' then you can make the argument that so is Biden, and if Biden moves into Obamas place for whatever reasons, then there goes the idea of change and electing new faces instead of the same old Beltway faces.
I think criticizing the VP as though they were the presidential nominee is stretching it a bit.

I agree with your assessment. Obama's already begged off the experience issue.
I was luke warm to this pick initially but it's clear that this nomination has picked up the energy level for conservatives in ways a man couldn't do.
