Bush's Experience As Governor Of A Large Oil Producing State Was Really Helpful

I know that the McCain campaign keeps on touting Palin's experience as governor of Alaska, but it is just infuriating how the MSM just ignores the obvious parallel that could be drawn to Bush. Indeed, I would argue that experience as Governor of a large oil producing state creates a bias in favor of the oil industry, and away from alternative energy sources, because such competing energy sources would tend to depress an oil producing state's revenues.

Sadly, this may be too complicated for most voters, and the MSM is not going to take the time to address the issues in any event.

1. no one's buying the "experience" claptrap.

that's just filler.

most palin/mccain (the tranposition is deliberate) voters are hearing "blah blah blah" and thinking "sarah pretty. me like sarah. me get bad grades too.".
