April Fools?

This seems like it must be some kind of a joke. How can John McCain criticize Obama's experience and knowledge when he has chosen someone with literally no experience? Mayor of a small Alaskan town? Beauty pageant winner? Self-proclaimed hockey mom? Biden will bury her in a debate. An undergrad minor in politics does not prepare you to lead the world's most powerful nation and she cannot possibly be in touch with American issues growing up in Alaska. I do not see how this could play out positively anywhere.

Hussein,
You are gravely mistaken. She's got so many pro's:
-husband is unionized
-son is going to iraq
-oil/energy experience + geopolitical awareness + right next to Russia + war in georgia = she's in a good spot
-she's commander of the alaskan national guard
-she has EXECUTIVE experience!
-ethics reformer
I'm looking at this as objectively as I can. The lack of national experience is major, but I see the above more than compensating...
