Judgment vs. Experience
In the past few days, John McCain has been touring the Middle East while Clinton & Obama duke it out at home.   In the general election, McCain will obviously be campaigning as the most 'experienced' candidate in terms of foreign policy.   But man oh man, all those years of experience haven't paid off this week.   On FOUR occasions in interviews, McCain ended up confusing the Sunni's and Shiites, and demonstrated complete obliviousness about which political extremists have & have not been supported by Iran.   At one point, Senator Lieberman had to lean in to correct him in attempt to keep McCain from further embarrassing himself.

Yep... that's who I want as President:  someone who isn't even sure who's who in the Middle East.   

Meanwhile, Obama stopped in Fayetteville, NC to give a major speech on the Iraq War & foreign policy.    For anyone who isn't sure that Obama has the experience to lead, this is a must see video.   He clearly demonstrates his knowledge and insight.

Experience or Judgment.   You decide.

I think Obama's experience compares favorably with Abraham Lincoln's when he ran for president.
