Palin and the inexperience, unqualified double standard

Compare the key political experience of the following politicians:
  • Sarah Palin: Governor of a state since 2006.
  • Barack Obama: Senator of a state since November 2004. In February 2007, announced his candidacy for the presidency.
Many in the media have seemed to report on Obama's inexperience as a Republican allegation and Palin's inexperience as a disqualifying fact.
