And Obama's executive experience is like what? Nine months as editor of the Harvard Law Review? I didn't ask you about Obama's experience. I have already read up on his. I asked you about her experience. And I did so because there is not much anyone knows about her. Her ability to become President would soon be on display on Wednesday of next week (unless an act of God moves that date.)

Obama's Convention Bounce Grows tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com By Eric Kleefeld - August 29, 2008, 1:08PM Today's Gallup tracking poll shows Barack Obama continuing to enjoy a convention bounce, and it may still be growing. The numbers: Obama 49%, McCain 41%, well outside the ±2% margin of error. Yesterday, Obama was up by a 48%-42% margin, after having fallen behind McCain by two points in Gallup just as the convention was beginning. This morning's Rasmussen poll had Obama moving into a 49%-45% lead. Note that this is a three-day sample that is just starting to take into account the impact from Bill Clinton's full-hearted endorsement of Obama, and we have yet to see any polling from after Obama's big speech last night.

Obama's executive experience - CEO and chief spokesman for a presidential campaign that has raised and effectively spent hundreds of millions of dollar in a nationwide presidential campaign, including a major foreign trip under intense press scrutiny 24/7. Took on and defeated one of the most formidable political organizations ever assembled in Washington, full of veteran national political players. Result - became the first ever African-American nominee for president, winning the nomination and making history at the same time.
