" hasn't McCain has just blown his experience argument out of the water?"Experience: did anyone really place much store in that trope of desperation anyway? Nixon had all kinds of experience and Dan Quayle was a Vice President. Abe Lincoln had practically none.

Then some comment about Palin, being a heart beat away from the Presidency.
It is not my kind of advertisement that I like, but it would be powerfully effective.

As everyone is saying - what happened to the "experience" gambit?
The best she can hope for is to appeal to "values" voters who actually don't give a damn about anything but censoring the public library for things Christians don't like.
Good luck to them both. This sort of thing is enough to make me give up and start a new hobby.
