letterman ask mccain serval times if palin would do his show. after mccain said yea i think she would, letterman hammered palin. he had a fair arguement, but if i was her i wouldn't go on knowing he was gonna hammer her. your wondering what letterman's problem was? palin saying obama hangs out with terriost's. letterman said (paraphasing) ok lets say bill ayers is one..she said "terriosts" who's the other ones? fair question and i have no problem with her being ask the question. does biden get the same scurinty?
Another thing, at NObamas speech yesterday he insulted sarah palin for not being experienced enough saying "Is sarah palin the most qualified republican to run for vice president?" and the crowd met him with a roar of "NOs!". If i was there i would have gotten up and said "Is Barack Hussien Obama the most qualified democrat to be PRESIDENT?" Then would have gracefully left while being mobbed by 20,000 angry democrats.
I think the point would be that Obama subjected himself to a lengthy series of Primaries to get the nomination. In other words his position was validated by winning the primary process.
Palin was the nomination of one person - John McCain. She was not subject to scrutiny by the electors (Republican and Independent).
So - Obama can claim that his party judged him to be the best qualified by his winning their primary process whereas Palin has no such validation - and her qualification is therefore open to challenge
