Ouch!
Responding to a question after his hurricane-related remarks, McCain made a ringing defense of Palin, who Democrats argue has less experience than their presidential candidate, Barack Obama.
“I think Sen. Obama, if they want to do down that route, in all candor, she has far, far more experience than Sen. Obama does,” McCain said.
He cited Palin’s […]

[The right-wing liberal] Sarah Palin’s national security experience: it’s more than you think
Posted by rightwingliberal in August 31st 2008 under: International Affairs, Republican Party, Sarah Palin, U.S. politics, aggregated
Comments Off
Part of the negative reaction to the nomination of Governor Palin stems from the fact that most people don’t put “governor” and “national security” in the same sentence. Even border-state governors have a hard time showing national security bona fides.
However, as any map will show, Alaska is not the normal state. It’s the only state […]
