		<description>Dan V.,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Your grade-school assessment of Palin and Obama&#039;s experience is atrociously transparent.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Why is it that you libs are never without statistics to back up your claims of Palin&#039;s inexperience (mayor of 9,000 people, for only 18 months) but you never say that B.O. has only served in the Senate for a total of 143 days?  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Obama: senator for only two years, but quick learner bright, enthusiastic and young&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Where did you get that two years figure?  And, from what I&#039;ve seen, Sarah Palin is also a quick learner, bright, enthusiastic and young.</description>

<p>Your grade-school assessment of Palin and Obama&#39;s experience is atrociously transparent.</p>
<p>Why is it that you libs are never without statistics to back up your claims of Palin&#39;s inexperience (mayor of 9,000 people, for only 18 months) but you never say that B.O. has only served in the Senate for a total of 143 days?  </p>
<p>&#8220;Obama: senator for only two years, but quick learner bright, enthusiastic and young&#8221;</p>
<p>Where did you get that two years figure?  And, from what I&#39;ve seen, Sarah Palin is also a quick learner, bright, enthusiastic and young.</p>

		<description>And I don&#039;t think the Obama camp calling anyone &quot;too green&quot; is to be recommended.</description>

		<description>This conservative thrown in with the neo-cons? Sounds like nothing but frustration for her in the future. Exposing corruption in Washington is a little bit different than stepping on toes in Alaska.</description>

		<description>I thought that if he picked Pawlenty it would be a bad choice, but Palin. Her inexperience far out reach&#039;s Obama&#039;s. Government experience: mayor of a town with 9000 population, then governor for two years. Her &quot;story&quot; is pro-life, but how many times is she going to have to drag it out in every one of her speeches? She may be &quot;new&quot; and &quot;fresh&quot; but also very, very green. Look at the pairs together:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;McCain: lot&#039;s of senatorial experience, but flip-flopping all over the place. And since 2000, has voted with Bush 90% of the time.&lt;br&gt;Palin: almost no political experience at all. Governor of Alaska for only two years.&lt;br&gt;Obama: senator for only two years, but quick learner bright, enthusiastic and young&lt;br&gt;Biden: 30 years in the Senate and most of them on the Foreign relations committee. Among the four of them, Biden&#039;s got the most knowledge of foreign affairs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;O.K., you pick!</description>
