Karl Rove On Sarah Palin’s Experience

Watch what Karl Rove has to say about Tim Kaine’s experience as Governor as Virginia & Mayor of Richmond, Virginia (a reasonably large city and the capital of Virginia, not a small town like Wasilla, Alaska.)

Republicans who are now praising Sarah Palin’s “executive experience” are being completely disingenuous. If they were being honest they would admit that Palin is totally unqualified. Watch what Rove has to say about Obama possibly picking Kaine (this was before Obama had chosen Biden and Kaine was considered a favorite) and imagine what an honest Rove (if there were such a thing) would say about Palin who has far less experience than Kaine?

Also consider that the “executive experience” argument they (GOP talking heads) are using to build up Palin’s thin resume also means that according to them Palin has more experience than John McCain. Think about how utterly ridiculous that is. And it’s just as ridiculous to say that Palin has more experience than Barack Obama who has 3 years experience on the foreign relations council. Palin’s foreign policy experience? “Alaska is close to Russia.”
