New McCain Campaign Ad: McCain Really No More Experienced Than Obama
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 03:41 PM by ihavenobias
By now you've probably heard about or seen the .

The Republicans have seemingly embraced the idea that executive experience is the only experience that really counts, and the logical conclusion of this ad is that John McCain has no more experience than Barack Obama (because neither one of them has any executive experience).

It's pretty amazing that they would concede this point.


PS---Make sure you read and send the updated mass email, It's got hard-hitting, easy to read and sourced facts that low-info voters need to know before November. And if you don't like #'s 9 and 10, go ahead and leave them off.

5. Then the transitive property would apply
If A=B and C>A, then C>B and Palin would be more experienced than McW

6. Exactly. If only executive experience counts than Palin is also more qualified than McCain n/t

2. I can't believe McCrazy is so high in the polls. His campaign has been nothing but,
a comedy of errors. I guess the people that can't see him for what he is are blind, deaf, and dumb.

7. Republican Tim Pawlenty of Minn. was on Race To The Whitehouse about 30 minutes or so ago...
Republican Tim Pawlenty of Minn. was on Race To The Whitehouse about 30 minutes or so ago.

He made the argument that Palin is more qualified to be president because she has executive experience and added that executive experience is different/better than Obama's legislative experience.

Apparently he hasn't read this thread yet.

8. Hilarious they would concede that point if you ask me.

They are really pulling out all the stops to defend this joke of a VP pick. Palin, the gift that keeps on giving.

9. I said earlier that I was glad McCain admits he isn't qualified to be president
his idiot supporters won't get how the Palin has more experience than Obama bullshit as a way of claiming he isn't qualified to be president is the same as admitting McCain isn't qualified

12. So Palin is the "experience" part of the ticket? I wonder if Republicans ever
get tired of living in upside-down world. Really, sometimes this stuff just gets ridiculous.

13. That's perfect!
And add this one to your outgoing emails as the punchline:

Rove on Tim Kaine as a potential Vice-Presidential candidate:

"With all due respect again to Governor Kaine, he's been a governor for three years, he's been able but undistinguished," "I don't think people could really name a big, important thing that he's done.

He was mayor of the 105th largest city in America. And, again, with all due respect to Richmond, Virginia, it's smaller than Chula Vista, California, Aurora, Colorado, Mesa or Gilbert, Arizona, North Las Vegas, or Henderson, Nevada. It's not a big town."


Sarah Palin vs. Kaine

Governor: 20 months / 3 years
Able but undistinguished
Mayor of a city of less than 10,000 residents / Richmond - 200,000+
Governor of a state of 670,000+ / Virginia - 7.7 million)
