Did you watch the campaign? Did you see her answers on Foreign Policy, the VP Job Description, or the Katie Couric interview?

Do you even know who Joe Biden is? According to him, J-O-B-S is a three letter word.
Your problem is that your comparing Sara Palin to Obama, and not Biden.-

Let's compare the two, then.

Biden has 7 terms as a senator in Congress.
Biden served on the following committees in the 110th U.S. Congress:[
* Committee on Foreign Relations (chairman)
As chairman of the full committee Biden was an ex officio member of each
subcommittee.
* Committee on the Judiciary
Subcommittee on Antitrust Competition Policy and Consumer Rights
Subcommittee on Crime and Drugs (chairman)
Subcommittee on Human Rights and the Law
Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security, and Refugees
Subcommittee on Technology Terrorism and Homeland Security
* Caucus on International Narcotics Control (co-chairman)
* Biden was co-chair of the NATO Observer Group in the Senate.
Sarah Palin was elected twice to the city council of Wasilla. She served two terms of Mayor of Wasilla.
Palin was appointed to the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission and served a year in that post.
She is governor of Alaska elected in 2006.-

And what's wrong with that comparison?

You've just pointed out that one person has held an executive position, while the other has held a legislative position?
And you've boasted that Joe Biden has been part of Washington for over 20 years while Sara Palin has never been a part of Washington, ...which is the PROBLEM. Washington is broke.
Joseph Biden, an honorable man, has never successfully managed. Sara Palin has spent her life managing.
And don't forget, the VP is an executive position. Only Sara Palin had executive experience.-

What the hell does managing a small town and a small state (in population) have to do with the qualification for national office that requires an understanding and experience in national and international affairs?

You and the rest of the Republicans make such a big deal about managing with executive experience but that doesn't mean a thing when you don't understand national or international issues and have no experience in those feilds. Prime example: George W. Bush.-

And see? Now that I've pointed out how foolish and stupid your comparison is, you've gone changed the comparison to George Bush.
You're an idiot for falling into that simple trap.-

My explaination is as follows: you called me an idiot in comparing Bush's executive experience as governor of Texas to Palin's executive experience as governor of Alaska as invalid qualifications for national office and you see where those qualifications got us. Bush has made this nation weaker and left a big mess for Obama to clean up. I made a comparison and so did you. VP to VP and executive qualifications to executive qualifications.

You won't answer my questions but throw up tangent statements of your own to muddy the water and make your comments sound logical but you're evading and attacking which are the tools a demagogue uses.

First: executive does not equate to THE Executive. Her experience in Alaska compared to government of the US is like running a 100-person company vs running a million-person one. Meanwhile Biden has been a member of the million-person company, and has worked with and directly for the executive thereof. I'd expect he'd know a little more about it.

Secondly: If Joe is tainted by Washington's 20 years, the Sarah must also be considered tainted by Alaska's corruption. If you excuse her, then you should excuse him.
Third and finally (since your last point is the same as your first): You say Biden has never successfully managed, but many would argue that neither has Palin. Her mayorship of Wasilla resulted in debt where none existed before. Her governorship of Alaska is plagued with scandal. Sure, she's been a manager, but has she successfully managed? Don't confuse them as being the same thing.-

On the contrary, the lack of experience isn't damning. It's the lack of wisdom. Sometimes the experience can directly show that lack of wisdom.

McCain wasn't a horrible person; neither was Palin. I think most of us those on the left just though Obama more fit to be President.
