Its this kind of willful blindness that drives me nuts, and honestly, drives a lot of independent minded voter's nuts. All they're doing is bringing more attention to Barack Obama's inexperience, as he is the one running for national office.

I don't know about all that the hippocracy isn't in his opinions on it, its in the fact that Mccain chose her dispite using inexperience as a weapon against Obama. He picked someone less experienced on the national stage, and who a lot less people even know about. I think anyone who was bashing Obama for lack of experience, but who is now strongly supporting Palin are the biggest hypocrites there are personally.
(Yes, I'm twisting it back.)
The truth of the matter is the majority of the people are going to vote off of who's in the party they support regardless of how unfit they are for the job. They'll find every reason to defend their canadate and bash the others even if they share in the same downfalls. Most "democrats" and "republicans" are guilty of this.
I think that palin's a cool person with a cool story, but I really think Mccain picked her for all the wrong reasons. It just makes a bigger joke of what this whole election is. If Obama and Mccain are the only two people left fit to be president, then this country is pretty sad right now.
