"If Obama were ever to undergo the kind of colonoscopy of his political and personal past that Palin is now getting, he'd be cooling his heels in Chicago watching the progress of the Hillary candidacy. There is no way that his rotten associations and total lack of meaningful experience would survive this kind of media attack. Of course, since most of the media are totally in his corner, that will never happen."
Obama was running for office for 2 years and went through 25 debates and collected 18 mm votes. He's written two books about his life story. He has been vetted quite well.
Fact:
Obama is smarter that Palin (Harvard Law, Columbia > U of Idaho
Obama has better judgment: opposed the war. Palin does not believe in global warming! (she also thinks the world is flat)
Obama has better experience: lawyer, constitutional law professor, State Senator 8 years, Congress 2 years. > beauty contestant, sports reporter, mayor of tiny town, 2 year Governor of a vacant state.
