There’s Inexperience You Can Believe In … Majority Polled Think Obama is Too Inexperienced to Lead … McCain is Ready to Lead

Think this question won’t be on people’s minds right before they select a candidate?

Wonder why Barack Obama and his surrogates have been attacking Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin on her experience as well as everything else under the sun? Ever wonder why Barack does not take McCain head on in an experience debate? The answer, Obama does not want the same Palin question of inexperience shined on him. Obama does not want the focus to be on his lack of experience to lead and for a very good reason. After more than 18 months of campaigning, the American public still thinks that Obama is not ready to lead. According to a recent Rasmussen Poll, a majority of voters say that only McCain and Biden are prepared to be President. 63% of voters state that John McCain is ready to lead right now, while only 44% think Barack Obama is. As a matter of fact, voters thing that Obama’s VP Joeseph Biden is more qualified to lead than Obama.

Sixty-three percent (63%) of voters say John McCain is prepared right now to be president, and 50% say the same thing about Democratic vice presidential candidate Joseph Biden. Forty-four percent (44%) say the man at the top of Biden’s ticket, Barack Obama, is ready, but 45% say he isn’t.

Just 26% say McCain is not ready, and 34% feel that way about Biden, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.
Over half of voters (52%) say McCain’s running mate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, is not prepared to be president, but 33% disagree

With such a wide gap in this all too important question as to who is more ready to lead, many last minute deciding voters may lean toward McCain when the election draws more near.

UPDATE I: A mjaority of American voters think Obama is not ready to lead. Even deep down Obama’s own VP does not think he is ready to be President.

Obama Dares Question Palin’s Experience to by VP … Isn’t the President the Head of the Ticket?

Does Obama even know what job he is running for? EXPERIENCE???

Does Barack Obama really want to get into a debate regarding Sarah Palin’s qualifications and lack of experience to be Vice President? The lst time I checked Obama was running for President against John McCain. Interesting how the Obamamessiah cannot debate McCain on that experience question, after all it is McCain who is his opponent, not Palin.

However, Obama, Biden the media and every other Democrat know that the one term US Senator who has spent more time campaigning than doing the job of a Senator has no experience or qualification to be President. The fact that Obama compares himself to Palin points out the fact that he does as well.  It is actually laughable that Biden thinks one year later after he said Obama was not qualified now thinks he is because Obama has campaigned for the office. Oh yea, because that makes one qualified. What a farce!

UPDATE I: Co-Workers: Obama Inflated His Resume

Indeed, there would seem to be an especially conspicuous absence of witnesses to the years after graduated from Columbia and before he moved to Chicago to work as a community organizer.

Well, it turns out that one of his co-workers, Dan Armstrong, has in fact written about Mr. Obama during those days. And while he is an admitted fan of Obama’s, he claims that he has inflated his resume considerably.

Others who worked with Obama at Business International have subsequently chimed in.

SNL, Tina Fey & Amy Poehler Take Jabs at Sarah Palin & Hillary Clinton … Obama Barbs No Where to be Found

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler take their pokes at Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton

Of course it was funny, but how far in the tank is SNL for Obama? SNL and the lack of pretense of an actor poking fun at Obama show America one of the very reasons why people cannot vote for Obama. Just as in the case with John Kerry, the candidate is stiff, rigid and not real. If one cannot laugh at themselves, who can they laugh at? What it does show is the continued media bias.

What a shocker, Saturday Night Live makes Sarah Palin fair game and to some extent Hillary Clinton; however, the Chosen One Barack Obama manages to escape the roast and ridicule.

During the skit Amy Poehler, aka Hillary Clinton, tell the press “to grow a pair and if you can’t I will lend you mine” in an obvious cry for the liberal MSM to go after Palin and question her. Hey Amy and the rest of the libs at SNL, have you been watching? What do you think the MSM has been doing in an all out vicious and unprecedented manner. I guess Amy Poehler, in her liberal bias missed these media articles:

• Palin Disclosures Raise Questions on Vetting
• Can Sarah Palin survive NY Times ‘attack’ piece?
• ABC’s Gibson grilled Palin hard, but it may backfire
• Bristol Palin’s pregnancy raises issues of privacy, judgment

The attack dogs have been out in force since Sarah Palin was announced in an attempt to destroy her. Barack Obama has even made an obvious dig at Palin with his lipsticking a pig comment.

So the question to SNL is why can’t they seem to find it in themselves to poke fun at Barack Obama? It is not as if SNL did not do skits that were not flattering to Democratic Presidential hopefuls like Al Gore and John Kerry. SNL has certainly had their fun with Bill and Hillary Clinton. Darrell Hammond and the late Phil Hartman were and still are the best depictions of Bill Clinton. Also, Hammond’s “lock box” skit of Al Gore is legendary.

So why no Obama? Do not tell us that Obama has not provided the SNL writers with material. Of course he has. Why is it that The Chosen One appears live vs. having someone imitate him? SNL had no problem nailing Hillary Clinton last Halloween.

If SNL can spoof McCain for his age, why can’t they pike fun at Obama in the same manner wearing a diaper and a baby rattle? If SNL can attack Palin for her inexperience at being a VP, at the very least one would think that they could do the same for Obama’s lack of experience to be President. Isn’t that the fairness doctrine that the Democrats have been railing about? Of course Sarah Palin should be asked questions; however, Obama should be asked the very same ones in the very same manner and tone.

UPDATE I: As The Corner states the best line of the SNL skit was Hillary saying, “I didn’t want a woman to be president. I wanted to be president.” It was actually a toss up as to who SNL was slamming more … in many respects it seemed as if it was Hillary.

UPDATE II: Sure Palin may have laghed at the skit; however, the Washington Monthly misspoke when it said the following: It’s a sketch comedy show. It mocks everyone, exaggerating shortcomings and creating caricatures. That’s the point. Ph contraire, SNL does not mock everyone. It does not mock The Chosen One, Barack Obama.

Minnesota, a Battle Ground State? McCain and Obama Tied … Land of 10,000 Headaches for Obama

REVERSAL OF FORTUNE FOR OBAMA IN MINNESOTA POLLS … LAND OF 10,000 HEADACHES

Who knew that Minnesota would be a battleground state in the 2008 election? The Democrats and the Obama campaign sure did not. There is more trouble in paradise for Barack Obama in the polls, this time the state is Minnesota. The one time 13 point lead in the Land of 1000 lakes has for Barack Obama has all but evaporated and a new Star Tribune Minnesota Poll shows that it is a dead heat between McCain and Obama. This is now beginning to be a trend everywhere as even once safe Washington State, Obama only up by 2. The McCain/Pail snowball is rolling down hill and picking up momentum everywhere.

Minnesota has become a battleground in a presidential campaign that has dramatically tightened nationwide.

A new Star Tribune Minnesota Poll shows that the race is now a dead heat between Barack Obama and John McCain, each supported by 45 percent of likely voters in the state.

The poll found that McCain has made gains across the board since a May Minnesota Poll that showed him trailing by 13 points. He has picked up considerable support among men and to a lesser degree among women. He also has boosted his standing with whites, young voters and all levels of household income and education.

Powerline is cautiously hopeful of these new polls and points out that between the boost from the RNC, a decisive win for Norm Coleman running for US Senate and the popularity of Governor Tim Pawlenty … it is possible.

Real Clear Politics: Minnesota

The continual trend since the Republican National Convention and McCain’s pick of Sarah Palin has been one of extending leads in red states, making pink states red and making one time purple and even blue states now in play. The end result is that Obama will have to use money and resources in states that he never dreamed he had to only a month ago. Sarah Palin was 100% correct when she made the comment that Obama regretted not picking Hillary Clinton as his running mate. However, you will never get him to admit it event hough his VP choice Biden has.

Strata-Sphere points out that the O-Bomba’s “Arrogance-Express” Is Derailing. Yes they are. Just as they were unwilling to listen and pull the trigger on picking Hillary, they are also unwilling to listen as to how to stop the bleeding poll numbers.

The Continued Sliming and Smears of Sarah Palin by the Democratic LEFT … Randi Rhodes Says Palin Likes Teen Boys

Just when I thought I had heard and seen it all, the LEFT has actually shocked me, unreal …

As Hot Air so apply puts it … just when you thought that the LEFT could not sink any lower in their attempts at smearing Sarah Palin … they have. It is no longer an issue of how low the LEFT will go to smear Sarah Palin, its only a matter of when.

Randi Rhodes of Air America/Nova M Radio told her listeners that she knows Palin’s type — the type that can’t be trusted with teen boys in the neighborhood.

The LEFT just does not get it. The more they unfairly attack, smear and slime Sarah Palin, the more Americans are outraged and poll numbers go up for the McCain/Palin ticket. However, this one is way over the line. Since Sarah Palin was picked by John McCain as VP she has met with such vicious, hateful and unfounded attacks the likes we have never seen. Why is the LEFT so afraid of Sarah? There used to be a satirical over the top joke that we would use when dealing with the LEFT, the liberal MSM and their cohorts. The question they would always ask a Republican is “so how often have you beaten your spouse or slept with little children”. Who knew the LEFT actually would insinuate such hateful comments and portray them as real?

So the LEFT feels that anything can be said about another person and be damned whether there is any proof or a shred of evidence. The more morally depraved, the better. It is character assassination at its worst and no one on the LEFT is willing to say its wrong. Whether it be the Left blogs or MSM, the ends justify the mean. This is what supports Barack Obama and will have power and influence if he wins. SICK!!!

Randi Rhodes embodies exactly what is wrong with the LEFT. And what is wrong with Democratic Party is they have fallen in line with the far LEFT. The following transcript from Rhodes show on Friday from Radio Equalizer:

RHODES (HOUR TWO — 47:59): “She’s the woman who shows up at the kid’s birthday party and starts opining about everything from politics to lawn care. This is the woman that knows it all. Will shout you down, will get revenge on you. That’s who she is.

She’s friends with all the teenage boys. You have to say no when your kids say, ‘can we sleep over at the Palin’s? No! NO!”

The LEFT and the Obama campaign actually wonder why main stream and thinking Americans are running away from Obama and Democrats in mass.
