Despite having a vast amount of experience not only in the political realm but also in life itself, John McCain is not the rock star that Barack Obama has become. It is funny to hear people talk about how great Obama is when he only has two years of political experience at the federal level. John Mccain on the other hand has years of experience. He has ran for president before and knows what it takes to make tough decisions. He has made the right decision in choosing Sarah Palin. Where as Obama's selection of Joe Biden is suspect at best. Biden himself said that he would be honored to run on a ticket with John McCain. Obviously some democrats realize that experience is what we need.
