I agree and disagree, I guess. In a democracy it is the voters' who get to decide who will or will not lead them (duh, I know). The press, if they are doing their job, have an obligation to give us the facts on the candidates. Where we are getting so confused is that the line between news and opinion/entertainment is pretty blurry. So we have facts mixed with opinions.

Me, I actually don't think Gov. Palin has the experience to be president (and that should be the test for VP)--it's a really hard and important job. One that requires years of experience. I like her. I like what she stands for and the future of the GOP she represents.

The best place for her to GET the experience would be as VP, if McCain acts like a good officer and treats her as his XO (Executive Officer) and grooms her with a view towards her being his successor.
