Lets Put the "Experience" Argument to Rest, Shall We?

Commenting at Hot Air.Com, 

Ironic how the Palin cult can’t seem to realize they look exactly the Obama cult they fought against in the last election.

          She still leads Obama in executive experience:
           2 1/2 years vs. 1 year and 2 months

I'm sorry, but whatever argument there once was for Palin's experience over Obama's during the election, that argument is now effectively destroyed.  1 year and 2 months of running the federal government of the United States of America during a global financial crisis in the midst of two wars while addressing various and sundry natural disasters worldwide trumps running Alaska for 2.5 years.  Period.  I dislike stupid arguments.  This is one.

    His experience is greater, he is running the nation into the ground, committing us to higher taxes, an enormous deficit, socialized medicine, whereas her experience was in running a state, taking on the oil companies and getting money for every man, woman and child in the state, keeping taxes low, and letting people have their freedom. I think I would take her experience over hers any day

  2. Well, thats one way of looking at it. I think your opinion suffers the defect of being really lopsided. She's not the glorious Goddess of the Right nor is he the Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse. While I doubt her capability to lead the entire country, it is probably true that, as I say about Obama, the United States could and would survive a Palin presidency. It would be politically interesting times.
