politicalbase.com — In 2004, Mitt Romney, President Bush, and the RNC blasted John Edwards as being too inexperienced to be a heartbeat away from the presidency, despite nearly six years in the US Senate. In 2008, all three are praising the choice of the shockingly inexperienced Sarah Palin. And Republicans wonder why Americans continue to laugh at them...

akchrs - John McCain has no executive experience either. Does that mean that the Republican ticket should be reversed?I understand you want to look at McCain's pick kindly - but executive experience of a state, particularly of a state like Alaska which is very different from the rest of the Union, does not mean that that experience is transferable.If executive experience is tantamount, why isn't she the top the ticket?

This sure is a Democratic web site. To be in Presidential Politics for a Democrat, you have to have experience in Sexual affairs. Then everyone can feel sympathetic toward your spouse and vote for you.

You definately have to take some time to have extra marital affairs to be involved in Presidential Democratic Politics! Wow! Anyone who condones this must certainly have had an affair themselves. I hope all your spouses read your comments.

In the main it seems to be Republicans that are making the comparison. Dems point out that Palin has little experience and might end up being president, and then republicans come back with "She's got more experience than Obama."

A flaw in the system elected Bush. Potentially voter fraud in Florida as well.
