Wiener of the Week

This week's WotW is Team Obama.

Good gravy, are these people stupid or just incompetent? They make a huge deal out of McCommie's age and "Washington insider" status for months on end, then choose as their VP candidate a guy who's only 6 years younger than McCommie and has been a Senator 14 years longer! Worse, his presence calls further attention to Obama's weaknesses in experience and foreign affairs.

Obama came out of his convention totally flat, having gained nothing in the polls. I can't remember in my lifetime a candidate who came out of their convention without some sort of "bump". This is unparalleled. And it bodes poorly for Team Donkey.

Worse still, McCommie totally stole Obama's thunder the day after the convention was over by choosing a young, pretty, and non-establishment woman as his VP candidate. Now the Biden choice starts looking worse by the minute. What more could go wrong?

The "what more" is that Team Obama started going after Governor Palin's "lack of experience". Boys, you did NOT want to go there! At least Governor Palin has filled an executive position at some point in her political career - Obama's been a Senator for about 15 minutes longer than Palin has been a Governor.

Now they're taking potshots at the Governor's 17-year-old (and pregnant) daughter. This from the people who want to teach Kindergartners about sex! They're playing with fire, and voters are going to start voicing their displeasure soon. Team Obama is rapidly setting him up for a Walter Mondull-type ass-whipping.

For running the most incompetent campaign I've seen in my 50 years, Team Obama is the Wiener of the Week.
