While she was attending beauty pageants and going to University of Idaho, Obama was receiving honors at Harvard Law School While she was in “elected office five years before Obama”, you mean on city council, Obama was teaching constitutional Law to more students than people in her town By the way, if she was in elected office “before”, I’m sure you would mention that after losing an election in 2002 she was “OUT” of office Largest state? Okay, but IF you wanted to be honest about what’s relevant you would say, “the third LEAST populated state” The rest? BS, pure and simple. Talk of religious affiliation, birthplace, real vs. (not real) reform, (lack of) accomplishments Blah, Blah, Lies, Blah, Blah, more lies. Kinda funny though. It says more about those who say them</p> This one is easy and you are correct, there IS NO comparison between Palin and Obama.

Can you provide a link that shows that the Obama campaign is comparing “their number 1 to our number 2″ as you say…

All I can find are conservative sources that are attempting to compare Obama’s experience with Palin…I can’t find any comment from the Obama camp that reflects what you are claiming..

Thanks!
