Obama's experience vs. Clinton's experience
Obama, after 4 years in D.C.: "So THIS is what you've been up to."

Clinton, after 16 years in D.C.: "So THIS is how you play the game."

The big difference? Judgment.

1. How did Hillary's (and McCain's) experience help them with that gas tax holiday?
Seems to me having tons of experience screwing up and being wrong, is not the type of experience we want in a President. Look how well that sort of experience served george bush.

2. Their experience taught them how to pander with ridiculous ideas.

5. Thanks!
Another SD just switched from Clinton to Obama, did you see? Joe Andrew in IN wasn't impressed with her experience either -- cited the gas tax holiday fiasco as one of his reasons.
