So let's see if I get this right, it's ok for Obama to get "on the job training" (and don't slam me, that's Biden's remarks, not mine!), but it's not ok for Sarah Palin to have to get a little training herself, even though she won't actually be the Commander in Chief, John McCain will.

Hmmmm.....the double standards never cease to exist.

Definitely a double standard. Everything the Dems bash us for, they think is okay for them. They especially don't like threads calling Obama out for various things.

I guess you have not seen the interviews Palin gave. If I compare that to Obama, no comparison.
I don't like ANY of the candiates, but Palin is by far the shall we say "most intellectually challenged".


By the way, pot kettle black????

Replace Dems with Reps, and Obama with McCain, and the same could be said about you.

Hello. It was McPalin who has been complaining about O8ama's experecne, then McPalin selects someone with even less experience. Haha! But it was a McPLOY. McPalin is so inexperienced there is no way she can lose the VP debate because the expectatons are already so low.

I hate to say it but Palin is not in Obama's league as far as intellect.

Everyone is going to need "on-the-job training", none of them have been VP or President before.

The problem is, Palin can't answer a sentence coherently and will need a LOT more OTJ training than any of the rest of the people running.

How about we just compare their educations' and see how equally inexperienced they are? Or, as Katzenfreund suggests, we just watch each of their last three interviews.
