Palin doesn't hurt so much there because no one can argue about McCain's experience

What experience? Being tortured and kept in a small isolation cell? I know he suffered and my heart goes out to him for that as a fellow Naval officer and shipmate, but that doesn't make him an expert on anything other than the subject of being a POW.

What about his Amnesty Bill he cosponsored with none other than Edward Kennedy? I guess no one remembered last night to list that among his "accomplishments."McCain's voting record is checkered with party disloyalty and crossing party lines and voting with most liberal of Democrats.

He made being a wild card an entire career.

Fine, then vote for Obama, you sickening troll. I’m sick and tired of you bellyaching clowns bitching about McCain. He’s the Republican nominee, so either vote for him or against him.

For his service McCain won the Silver Star, Bronze Star, Legion of Merit, Purple Heart and Distinguished Flying Cross. He gained valuable experience as the Navy's liaison officer to the U.S. Senate before starting his 25-year career in the Congress. While there he chaired the Commerce Committee and authored/sponsored several pieces of major legislation (many of which I disagree with). He has also obviously done extensive work on the Armed Services Committee. Aside from not being a governor, if he doesn't have the experience to be President I don't know who does. Even the libs know better than to go after McCain on the issue of experience. That would only show how lacking Obama's truly is.

What about his Amnesty Bill he cosponsored with none other than Edward Kennedy?

Plus McCain-Feingold, plus the gang of 14, plus McCain-Lieberman, plus a bunch of other stuff. There is no doubt he is a hundred miles away from being an ideal candidate. AND, he picked a pro-life, conservative running mate and they are what we've got. :)
