MSNBC already bashing her experience to be Pres when Mac’s heart stops beating

IMO, this won't fly with the public. Joe Public sees a governor as someone that CAN handle running a large organization, while a Senator just sits and votes and acts snobbish. More governors have been elected president than senators, by far - so I think this perception of their abilities is widespread. The McCain camp just needs to keep referring to it - but it will be hard to compare since McCain's only experience is in the Senate as well.

Well, sorta. McCain also has a lot of real-life experience outside of politics, which Obama does not. Beyond that, McCain tends to state specifics, and it's clear that he's a practical guy -- he recognizes bad guys, for example, and names them in public. He understands the limits of personality.

Obama's strategy seems to be, "I'm a great guy, and everybody wants to do what I want them to do." His entire "I will..." laundry list last night drove this home.

I wish PMSNBC would chant this 24/7. Essentially, what they are saying is that a black guy with no experience can handle it but a woman can't. We must encourage PMSNBC to keep this up!
