[0:00]" Good morning if you don't want to vote for -- because he didn't like the way she carved up Barack Obama last night at the Republican convention that's fine. Some folks don't like aggressive women and that's their right. If you don't want to vote for -- island because you don't like her conservative views on abortion or creationism. Or abstinence education or oil drilling our taxes also fine. Those disagreements are perfectly good substandard reasons not to vote for someone. But please don't try to tell me with a straight face that you won't vote for her because she isn't qualified for the job. Even before last night she pretty clearly was qualified by any reasonable measure. She's educated has the relevant life experience that a solid marriage parenthood and a successful political career provide. And last night she showed a presidential level poison maturity as she flawlessly delivered the biggest speech of her life. The notion that gaudy or academic credentials or longer resonate in political life for necessary has been just proven time and again and our history. Did the names Carter and bush tells you anything about the disconnect between resume and leadership skill. No when someone tells -- their anti -- because she doesn't have the right experience it's suggest a writer afraid to admit with -- real reason is or simply pirating some foolish -- they heard or read it. But I have to say the same is true for those who claim Barack Obama is too inexperienced. Like -- Obama scores high marks for constancy and commitment in his personal life. For fighting his way to the top of a grueling business for poise beyond his years. Yes I believe that experience matters and that some wisdom only comes with time. But both Obama and pale and seemed to me to have all the goods to lead. So let's debate where they might lead ups but please let's drop the bony hand wringing about their resonates. The biggest red Herring of campaign 2008."
