Palin Spokesman: She is older than JFK and more experienced than John McCain.
Palin, the next JFK?
from AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth by John Aravosis (DC)

You can't make this stuff up:

Palin spokesman Bill McAllister said on the same call that Palin is older than John F. Kennedy was when he ran for president in 1960 and that ``of four people on two national tickets, she is the only one with executive experience.''

So she's more qualified than John McCain, who she now says has no executive experience? Keep it coming.

2. Someone please "put her down". This is a Presidential Election not a side show
Please, McSame, do the right thing and get rid of her. You're making a laughingstock of your party and our system of government.

3. Executive experience?
The only "executive experience" that really matters to the GOP is Chief Executive Officer experience.

4. I'm getting confused
McCain says that BO has no experience and has been campaigning on that for months. The Dems are saying that Palin has no experience because...well...she doesn't have any. Now Palin is saying that the guy that is running for high office actually has no experience. WOW! My head is starting to spin.

I just heard someone on the radio ask a caller "Did Bush have any experience?" Before the caller answered th host said "because if he did have experience and he has a 28% approval rating I'll take my chances with BO with no experience then."

I need a drink.

5. That's how they think they can get around the "experience"
She has no experience.

I'm sorry this is such a slap in the face to everyone. If she has so much experience, why didn't she run for President instead of McPoopy Pants!

6. I'm telling you, if McShame has an accident on the campaign trail, look at Sarah
If you watched her acceptance speech you can tell she wants to bump him off the ticket and run for President herself. I get the logic of comparing her to Presidents but she ISN'T running for President but it seems her handlers want people to see her as presidential.

Something stinks here...

11. honestly, she needs to get over herself
those in alaska warned of this -- her self-aggrandizement and egomania...and here it is.

This is just appalling.

How DARE she compare herself to JFK????

Just who else does she think she's more experienced than? and instead of embracing the truth and dealing with it, they've chosen to LIE to us again-- spin it and belittle others in the process. What a bunch of GOPPERS. Typical.

16. She isn't fit to carry HRC's bags, much less JFK's
Miss Mooseburger is perhaps fit to run for state senator from Moosebreath, not any Federal officel

15. And then this weekend I heard a conservative radio guy call her Sarah Obama
So which is it? She's so very experienced, or they're going to hammer Obama using Sarah as the weapon? One is ludicrous and the other might hurt Obama, but will take Sarah with him if both are considered to inexperienced.

It's very Sybil-esque.

18. She may well be the most qualified republican in the country to be president.
Perhaps she should replace McCain at the top of the ticket.

After all:
1. She was for the Bridge to Nowhere before she was against it.
2. She lied about her positions on the Bridge to Nowhere.
3. She was for some of the most corrupt Alaskan elected officials before she was against them.
4. She lied about her active and ardent support for those corrupt elected officials.
5. She illegally abused her power as Governor of Alaska for vengeful, petty, and vindictive reasons.
6. She lied about her illegal abuse of power as Governor of Alaska.
7. She was for Neo-Confederates before she was against Neo-Confederates.
8. The Founding Fathers of her America were hate mongers who lived in the 1950's
9. . . . . And so it goes.

These are extremely strong republican qualifications for power and they are only the tiniest smattering of the early results of the only recently begun republican vetting process. Her republican qualifications may well increase by leaps and bounds as the vetting process proceeds.
I would like to see how republicans would respond to the assertion that Palin is the most qualified republican in the country to be president.
