Barack Obama Proclaims he has More Experience than Republican VP Candidate Sarah Palin

Did Obama have a senior moment? Has he forgotten who is is running against? It also seems that he has more memory loss in the fact that Palin is a Governor, not a Mayor. How incredibly sexist that Obama would try to dismiss Palin as the little woman.
Can Obama get any more juvenile? What’s next … Obama going to say his daddy can beat her daddy up? As Town Hall adds Obama new slpogan is … “My Campaign Is Bigger Than Her Small Town.” Could Obama and his campaign get any more childish?
Today Obama defended his nearly non-existent executive experience by stating that he was more experienced that Republican VP candidate and Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin. That might actually mean something if Obama were actually running against Palin. Maybe someone in the Obama camp may want to tell Barack that he is running for President against John McCain, not Palin. I really must say the Obama campaign talking points have really been lame lately.
Barack Obama defended his experience in dealing with natural disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina, and took a swipe at newly minted GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
In an interview on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 Monday night, Obama was asked about whether his experience in the U.S. Senate dealing with weather-related situations compares to Palin’s executive experience running the state of Alaska and as the small town mayor of Wasilla, Alaska.
“My understanding is that Gov. Palin’s town, Wassilla, has I think 50 employees. We’ve got 2500 in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe 12 million dollars a year – we have a budget of about three times that just for the month,” Obama responded.
Who knew Obama was running for Vice President?
Hey Obama, as The Corner states, did you forget the fact that Sarah Palin is the Governor of Alaska, not the Mayor of Wasilla? I would dare say that the State of Alaska has more than 50 employees and a larger budget than your campaign. By the way, it is not Obama that is managing the 2500 employees or the campaign budget, his people would be doing that. Thus in the end, Obama manages nothing.
Just for the record, Alaska’s FY2008 operating budget is $11.2 billion, and the state employs approximately 15,000 people. Those certainly aren’t huge numbers in federal terms, but they’re a good bit bigger than the Obama campaign.
