    If you switch the pieces, Biden/McCain have comparative experience more than Obama/Palin. Obama's edge isn't that drastic.

    Does Biden use Amtrak?

    what a move of desperation. this woman, besides being totally unknown, gave birth four months ago the a baby with down's syndrome. the GOP will no doubt play up that she opted to go through with the pregnancy even after she learned it had down's.

    bravo to her. but how will the gop spin the fact that she's a woman with a four-month-old child with down's syndrome is about to embark on the ultimate campaign -- and if the ticket wins, she'll be a mom with a down's syndome infant one tragedy away from the presidency.

    she's a first-term gov, right? but we're supposed to be scared crapless by barack's "inexperience?"

    what fun is ahead! the spin doctors on both sides of the aisle are in full drool.

    You know, the comments on this board are becoming increasingly insulting to parents with kids who have downs syndrome.

    Downs kids can live fairly functional lives. Do you not believe that the woman will have a nanny? Are parents with downs syndrome kids incapable of handling high-level jobs at all? That's weak, people.

    Tell ya what, I guess we can just cart the kid off to one of those "Homes for the Feeble Minded." Would that make you feel safer?

    Inexperience at VP is a lot less important than inexperience at the top of the ticket. No matter how old the Prez candidate is.

    Nanny isn't parenting.

    That's why my upstart third party will announce tomorrow its ticket of the Ghost of Abraham Lincoln and Paris Hilton.
