Laurie Mar- Your state is already decided. Your vote won't count.....but just in case you need to know his real experience.
He spent 7 years in the Illinois Senate. He's been a US Senator for 3 years and 10 months. Where'd you get your facts? Not even the RNC has lied about that....must have been Limbaugh!

Well I got it figured out, and I wasn't even a Poly Sci Major smile

If you READ my post Pug you will note I did not reference the specifics of the post. I referenced his experience. He was a senator in Illinois for 7 years. He was a US senator for 810 days before starting an "exploratory committee". He didn't quit being a senator during those 810 days and he didn't stop being a senator once he formed an "exploratory committee".
My last statement is where did you get your facts? Pretty plain English. My search found nothing to verify the 143 day assertion. I even checked the RNC website. Lay off the Rum Pug...it's blurring your vision.

Pug- I found Laurie's source....the web address is revealing (www.gopusa.com).....and no links associated to verify truth or fiction! Spin at its best!

Where his favorite vote was "present". So experience as a state senator, no experience taking a stand on issues.

You both are wrong. He was sworn in to the US senate on 1/4/2005 and he started his exploratory committee on 1/17/2007.

That is 740 days by my count. Still two years of experience? hmmm... I'll take two years of executive experience over two years of legaslative experience for a CEO position.

I just want to know: executive experience in WHAT? deciding where the first stoplight was gonna go? Neither are very experienced in terms of executive experience and neither have any real foreign policy experience to speak of - but seriously, at least Obama can and has pointed to some actual accomplishments. So far all I know about Palin is that she wears lipstick. OK - so she was governor for almost a year and a half - what did she DO????? shocked
