At any rate, Palin’s citing Alaska’s proximity to Russia was at least as good a qualification as Obama running his own campaign and being a community organizer, both of which were put forward as evidence of executive experience.

Newsflash: No presidential candidate other than a sitting vice-president or a military leader, ex-secretary of state or foreign adviser has foreign policy experience. To say that Palin doesn't have foreign policy experience is really a disingenuous argument. But I would argue that Palin does have some foreign policy experience, because she was briefed on North Korea firing missiles and she dealt with Canada on the pipeline. If that isn't a pre-requisite then nothing is.

I'd include some Senators on that list as well.
