. "He's never run a city, never run a state, never run a business, never run a military unit. He's never had to lead people in crisis," said former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani of McCain's rival. "This is not a personal attack ... it's a statement of fact — Barack Obama has never led anything. Nothing. Nada."

. "In politics, there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers," she said in another cutting reference to Obama's campaign theme. "And then there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change." ----- Sarah Pilan in her speech today at the RNC

. "I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a `community organizer,' except that you have actual responsibilities," ----- Sarah Pilan in her speech today at the RNC

McCain can't answer how many house he has and Palin can't even monitor her daughter properly how to control US of the A?

Mccain and Palin has their flaws. But they have experience. Obama has no experience at all! Are the Americans willing to gamble on a newbie??

Better in what sense?

Better in the sense John McCain has got more experience than Obama.

What did Obama do? Here's the comment by former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani:

"He's never run a city, never run a state, never run a business, never run a military unit. He's never had to lead people in crisis," said former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani of McCain's rival. "This is not a personal attack ... it's a statement of fact — Barack Obama has never led anything. Nothing. Nada."

So what is the biggest achievement for McCain?

Obama is a noob. He has no experience in leading. So, tell me, how could he be the president?

Did Bush have any experience? :biggrin:

Wanted to add that our PM got plenty of experience, are Sporeans happy???

One of his greatest achievement was he survive as a prisoner of war of the north vietnamese from 1967-1973.

"while on a bombing mission over North Vietnam, he was shot down, badly injured, and captured as a prisoner of war by the North Vietnamese. He was held from 1967 to 1973, experiencing episodes of torture and refusing an out-of-sequence early repatriation offer; his war wounds would leave him with lifelong physical limitations." -----------wikipedia

short intro on john mccain at wikipedia:

"John Sidney McCain III (born August 29, 1936) is the senior United States Senator from Arizona and presidential nominee of the Republican Party in the 2008 presidential election.

McCain graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1958. He became a naval aviator, flying ground-attack aircraft from aircraft carriers. McCain nearly lost his life in the 1967 USS Forrestal fire. Later that year while on a bombing mission over North Vietnam, he was shot down, badly injured, and captured as a prisoner of war by the North Vietnamese. He was held from 1967 to 1973, experiencing episodes of torture and refusing an out-of-sequence early repatriation offer; his war wounds would leave him with lifelong physical limitations.

He retired from the Navy as a captain in 1981 and, moving to Arizona, entered politics. Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1982, he served two terms, and was then elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986, winning re-election easily in 1992, 1998, and 2004. While generally adhering to conservative principles, McCain has gained a media reputation as a "maverick" for disagreeing with his party on several key issues. After being investigated and largely exonerated in a political influence scandal of the 1980s as a member of the "Keating Five", he made campaign finance reform one of his signature concerns, which eventually led to the passage of the McCain-Feingold Act in 2002. He is also known for his work towards restoring diplomatic relations with Vietnam in the 1990s, and for his belief that the war in Iraq should be fought to a successful conclusion in the 2000s. McCain has chaired the powerful Senate Commerce Committee, and has been a leader in seeking to rein in both pork barrel spending as well as Senate filibusters of judicial nominations.

McCain lost his bid for the Republican nomination in the 2000 presidential election to George W. Bush. He ran again for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008, and gained enough delegates to become the party's presumptive nominee in March 2008."

Obama survived Indonesia? Achievement or not?:rolleyes:

Saw over CNN special.. McCain actually finally cracked under Vietcong torture and confessed his "crime".... not that I'm saying he wasn't patriotic or brave... for info only

Obama is just a smooth talker. Thats all he is.

All he has is just "Jig gi chui" (teochew: one mouth).

Only in the US can a governor suddenly rise to the position of a Vice President. I've always thought the Westminister System is better.

How does surviving being a POW make someone good leader?
