She'll get the Hillary vote alright.



I'm looking forward to the VP debate.

You're right, if people think that because she was/is a governor that somehow translates to executive experience, they are mistaken. She's a first term governor and was previously the mayor of a city the size of Mayberry. McCain has effectively, if not taken the experience argument off the table, at least undermined it.
