Throw the flag against: Carly Fiorina and the McCain campaign.
Call: Pass interference.
What happened: Fiorina, a top McCain adviser and senior officer on the Republican National Committee, called a news conference Wednesday to complain that the media's questioning of Sarah Palin's experience is "sexist." She charged that nobody has "been concerned enough to ask the question" about Barack Obama's lack of experience.
Why that's wrong: The news media have been questioning Obama's depth of experience since the first day of his campaign.
