Reply #28: McCain spent enough time in the Senate to know [View All]

his job. He also commanded men in the Navy. Obama had held no leadership position, now he's interning in the White House.

Obama did chair the Annenberg Project but he couldn't talk about that because Bill Ayers gave him the job and he wanted to pretend he barely knew Ayers. What he actually did as chair of the Annenberg Project we may never know.

From your source:

"He chairs the Senate's Subcommittee on European Affairs, which has some oversight in Afghanistan through NATO."

"The ad starts by saying Obama "never held a single Senate hearing on Afghanistan," which is literally true. Obama, who is chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's subcommittee on European Affairs, hasn't held any Afghanistan hearings. The full Senate Foreign Relations Committee, however, has held three hearings on Afghanistan during the past two years, and Obama attended one of them."

Like I said, he never called a subcommittee meeting and, by your own source, he attended only one of three Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearings on Afghanistan.

What McCain did and didn't do is a separate issue and we know he won't run again. The OP was attacking Palin as a "quitter" and I'm arguing that Obama has been a quitter, too, and since Obama happens to be in the White House now, his faults are more important than McCain's or Palin's.

Palin will probably not get the GOP nomination because she's a woman. Recall how the liberal Democrats savaged Hillary Clinton and tell me you really believe that conservatives will unite behind Sarah Palin.
Most men are determined to keep women down and a disappointing number of women will do the same.
