<p>Sure so, being governor for a day is better than being senator for 30 years? Point is both time and position are important. Furthermore, some may argue being Senator is more important because Senators know Washington and how to get bills passed which the President needs to do. Also, remember she’s governor of Alaska-they have a different set of issues than most other states.</p>

<p>So Obama ran a terrible campaign because he was a virtual unknown and was able to beat one of the most established political families in this country to the Presidential nomination? Everyone, Republicans and Democrats alike give him kudos to his campaign well run. However the Republicans think he’s an empty suit and say thats all he knows how to do. At least get the points straight. Also, Axelrod didn’t manipulate anything, those were the rules. The only reason McCain is this close is because he’s a different type of Republican to the American public. They are still thinking about his 2000 maverick image and deny the past 8 years thinking he just whored to the Republican base to get his spot. I’m not so sure.</p>
