It's only reasonable to conclude he would have made mistakes in 30 years. He has done a creditable job as Senator from Delaware. Ask the people of Delaware.

McCain, just the other night, cited her PTA experience as preparation for office! Hell, Steve, if that's a real criterion, I'm qualified to be Vice President. I was an officer for 3 years and head of committees for 5 more.

Sarah Palin is a lot like a squirrel. She's clever but not smart, cute from a distance but vicious when cornered, and I wouldn't trust her anywhere near my birdseed.
