Campbell Brown Suddenly Concerned Over 'Lack of Experience'


Can anybody recall Campbell Brown pestering Democrat officials over Barack Obama's lack of not only foreign policy experience but overall experience? I sure can't but here is Brown hectoring McCain Political Director Mike Duhaime about her sudden concern over lack of experience. Here is a transcript of the interrogation but to get the full flavor of Brown's attitude complete with cynical facial expressions, be sure to watch the video (emphasis mine):

BROWN: Political insiders were pretty impressed when there was all this talk about who was on McCain's short list of V.P. candidates, most pretty well-known Republicans, but he didn't choose any of them. Instead, everybody now getting to know Alaska Governor Sarah Palin tonight.

And Michael DuHaime is McCain's political director. And he is joining me to talk about what some are calling a pretty risky move by Senator McCain.

Mike, John McCain has said that he would pick a running mate who would be able to step into the president's shoes on day one. I don't have to tell you, Sarah Palin's only been governor for less than two years. Of all the Republicans out there, is she really the most qualified person to be commander in chief in a crisis?

MIKE DUHAIME, MCCAIN CAMPAIGN MANAGER POLITICAL DIRECTOR: She was a great governor and is ready, will be ready on day one to be president of the United States.

As you can see, what she did in government in Alaska, as governor, she was a true reform governor. And that's what John McCain was looking for, somebody who shared his values, shared his vision, basically a maverick, like himself, somebody who passed landmark ethics reform.

This is somebody who did two years -- did more in two years as governor than most people we're talking about in government in either party.

BROWN: But, Mike, we're fighting two wars right now. She has no foreign policy experience.

(CROSSTALK)

DUHAIME: Well, she's the commander of chief of the Alaska National Guard and has a son going to Iraq.

I think that's somebody who has great perspective on what's going on in this world and what is going on in this country and how it affects real people in America. So, I think she is ready. I think she brings a different perspective maybe than a U.S. senator who can put 80,000 people in the stands.

I think that's a different perspective, what she brings as an executive, as a governor, as somebody who sent troops to Iraq, as someone who has her own son in the Army. I think that's a different perspective, and I think it's one that Americans are going to respect.

BROWN: So much of your campaign's case against Senator Obama has focused on how little time that he's been in the Senate and how inexperienced he is on matters of international affairs, on military affairs.

I mean, doesn't naming Governor Palin as his running mate really undermine your entire argument against Senator Obama?

DUHAIME: I don't think so at all.

I think, right now, what you're talking about is Senator Obama's inexperience. I will actually match up Governor Palin's experience vs. his any day. He started to run for president when he had been in the U.S. Senate for two years. I would say that his accomplishments, next to Governor Palin's, are relatively insignificant.

This is someone who had no record of crossing party lines, no record of significant accomplishment in the U.S. Senate, vs. somebody who actually made government work, made change, took on power structures of both parties and big business. This is somebody who really was an effective governor.

Hillary Clinton said that Barack Obama was a speech.

(CROSSTALK)

BROWN: Mike, just give me a reality check here. She hasn't even been governor for two years. Prior to that, she was mayor of a town of less than 8,000 people.

DUHAIME: Campbell, I mean, that's, I think, one of the problems with the Democrat Party and maybe with big media, that you think only smart people come out of maybe New York, L.A., Chicago.

(CROSSTALK)

BROWN: I'm not suggesting that at all. A lot of people come from small towns. What I'm saying is, she's managed, as mayor and governor, not on a substantial level. I mean, you understand. Look at John McCain. No one has ever questioned his experience, what he has gone through.

DUHAIME: Campbell, rightly so. Rightly so, you shouldn't question his experience.

BROWN: So, compare the two. I mean, compare John McCain to her experience. You're comparing her to Barack Obama.

(CROSSTALK)

DUHAIME: Campbell, I realize you're very upset about this, obviously. This is somebody who...

BROWN: Nobody's upset about it. But I'm asking you to try to be honest with here -- let's cut through the bull and give me an honest answer. What I think is that she may bring many, many qualities to the ticket, many wonderful qualities to the ticket.

DUHAIME: She does. Yes, she does.

(CROSSTALK)

BROWN: But a long wealth of experience probably isn't one of them. If you can be honest with me, you have got to concede that point, right?

DUHAIME: We can be honest.

BROWN: And I'm not by any means arguing that Barack Obama brings all this experience to the ticket either. But I'm saying they're both in a position of not bringing a lot of experience. And maybe other things outweigh that. But can you concede that point and just be honest with me on that?

DUHAIME: No, I will not concede that point, and, yet, I'm still being honest, as fascinating as that may sound to you.

BROWN: OK. All right. I know.

DUHAIME: She's somebody who's done incredible work as a governor. She was a fantastic governor, brought real reform. And that's what John McCain is looking for, somebody who mirrors the way he wants to bring reform to government.

You're talking about Barack Obama, who chose a senator who has been -- a U.S. senator who's been there for 30 years, taken another person out of the old boys network, vs. John McCain, who has taken a governor, someone who has been a reform governor, somebody who is from outside of Washington. I think she's going to connect with the American people because she is going to -- she would be a good vice president, as she has been a great governor.

BROWN: OK. Well, how did he come to decide on her? Because they met, as I understand it, just one time, right, before he chose her.

I mean, John King was just talking about this, and John McCain has been up front about this, how important personal relationships are to him, knowing and trusting the people he works with and spends time with. It's a bit of a roll of the dice, from his perspective, isn't it, given how he barely knows her?

DUHAIME: Well, I think John McCain is somebody who has been around leaders his entire life.

This is somebody who understands leadership and knows a leader when he meets one. And this is somebody who, as I said, if you just look at her record, she is somebody who is a leader, because she didn't just go along to get along when she won in Alaska. She took on people of both parties. She took on big business in her state because she wanted real reform. She passed a landmark ethics reform.

This is somebody who really governs the way John McCain would govern. And I think that's what he's looking for. And I think -- I certainly trust his instincts. He knows a leader.

BROWN: All right, Mike Duhaime, we appreciate your time tonight. Thanks for coming on and chatting with us.

Suddenly the liberal media types, including Campbell Brown, are concerned about "experience." Something they didn't think was all that important with Barack Obama who as yet has no executive experience which Palin does. And kudos to Mike DuHaime for his great replies to the suddenly concerned Campbell Brown.

Its a Simple Answer

Well Campbell, she has about as much experience as your guy Barack Obama.

Shame on Dan Senor.

Campbell, could you please

Campbell, could you please tell the good viewers of CNN how many National Guard Troops that Biden and Obama have commanded? What's that? Zero?

Ok, then how many budgets have they proposed? Zero again??

Ok, what about working with Homeland Security and FEMA to make a state ready for emergencies etc? Zero again Huh?

I'm sorry, now what was your question about her experience in roles of government of being ready to lead?

Of course I guess Palin is at a disadvantage because she doesn't ride a train everyday like Bankrupt Amtrak Joe Biden does.

Maybe you should tell us

Maybe you should tell us how many National Guard troops Palin commanded. Really, I want to see hard numbers. Like that one time when some Moose ran over some trashcans. That was a close one. True leadership.

 

It Could be 22 - Who Cares ?

The more they talk about  Palin's inexperience, the more it highlights Barack Obama's lack of real world experience.

"real-world experience" A

"real-world experience"

A much-used phrase this campaign, but I've yet to hear anybody explain what that it actually means. Let me know, and I'll get back to you.

How about....

....vetoing spending measures passed by the state legislature?

....actually taking responsibility for making decisions as a mayor and governor instead of voting "present" when things got uncomfortable

...tellling Congress to stick the Bridge to Nowhere where the sun don't shine

...taking on your own party and throwing corrupt members of your own party in jail

For a start.

 

that's nothing prester!

Let's look at Joe Biden's accomplishments:

-grew up in Scranton and thus feels my blue collar pain

-singlehandedly keeping Amtrack out of bankruptcy

-managed to win six elections in a row to stay in Congress

-earmarked some 60 million dollars in one year for the folks back home

-called for America to bomb the Balkans before almost anyone else

-insisted on attacking Iraq even before the Bush administration was ready

There's change we can believe in!

Candance

Did anybody question Biden's ability to serve as Senator while he had "special needs" children at home?

But here we have the press questioning Sarah Palin's ability to raise her kids and doing her job too.

Torches & Pitchforks

"real-world experience"

It's about making decisions. Issuing directives others will live with.

Or perhaps die with.

Much different than voting "present" for most of your legislative career.

Or making decisions that send $100 million down the crapper with nothing to show for it. (Then trying to hide it.)

Now you know. Go back to your turntable.

Does the number of troops

Does the number of troops matter?

motherbelt

Bill Clinton thought it was easier to turn American Troops over to UN leadership.

He was OK with that Commander in Chief title until it came to functioning as one.

Expect the same from Khofi Obama.

Torches & Pitchforks

Campbell Brown... All

Campbell Brown...

All Bias...All Bull.

She proves what her real logo should be night after night.

...for those who may not know, she has labeled her show NO Bias No Bull...now that is a laugh...is it not?

Btw...Brown...as far as population and Mayors...you may want to talk to Kwame Kilpatrick about how well he had done experience wise in Detroit...and get back to Palin.

When Michael said "NO I will not concede"...I couldn't of been more tickled...more people need to do just that. 

"America isn't the problem...America is the solution." ~ Rush Limbaugh

Mike Duhaime, way to go......

....this point needs to be hammered home to the MSM. How many times are you going to compare the experience of the (R) VP candidate to the (D) POTUS without making the connection? You know, we vote for the latter and not the former!  So when Campell Brown doesn't agree with the spokesman she's interviewing they need to cut out the "Bull", and the only way to see things her way he would have to be "honest" with her. Way to go Brownie, keep up the good work!

 

This town needs an enema! - The Joker

This isn't about comparing

This isn't about comparing Obama to Palin, it's that Palin really is the least experienced figure on a national ticket in modern times. And with McCain's age as a serious issue, Palin's readiness (or lack of) is completely legitimate. No matter how you slice it, Palin is a neophyte.

you'd have a point

if Obama wasn't running but he is and he is inexperienced.

"You can not support the Troops if you do not support their Mission" 

The difference is that more

The difference is that more than 18 million people decided he was going to be the nominee. Now, the public at large only has two months to get to know Palin.

Which might be a problem if

Which might be a problem if she was running for the Top Spot.

But she isn't.

With McCain's age, his VP

With McCain's age, his VP selection is critical. She might be the most important VP nominee in our history. He showed poor judgement in his choice. She's not ready to lead. Two months is simply not enough time to prove it to me.

the back-up must have experience

but the starter can be a neophyte

are you really making that argument?

"You can not support the Troops if you do not support their Mission" 

Grooming vs. Training

THIS should be the question:

What would you rather do:

Groom a VP (Palin), or provide a POTUS ON-THE-JOB TRAINING (Obama)???  

Whoever casts a vote for Obama-Biden is nothing more than a common thief.  Whoever fails to vote against them is nothing more than a moral coward.

What would you rather do:

Groom a VP (Palin) with proven executive and leadership skills, or provide an unaccomplished teleprompter-dependent Marxist POTUS ON-THE-JOB TRAINING (Obama)??

botg

Vinyl is making that argument. Pretty hysterical, huh?

Also, haven't half the presidents in the past been close to 70 or 70 and over at some point while in office?

Man, talk about reaching for excuses to shoot down the Palin pick. Please.

I've heard her a few times, and I'm already sold that this is one tough customer.

Also, watching a repeat of McCain at Saddleback, and MAN, no wonder this gave him a big bump in the polls. Obama looks laughably inadequate and sophomoric next to this sharp, experienced candidate.

Shy

i could come to the same conclusion but that's above my pay grade

"You can not support the Troops if you do not support their Mission" 

Thanks to McCain you get to debate this

I call it how to shoot yourself in the foot.

Yes he is making that

Yes he is making that point.

When I made the point that it's better to have the neophyte in line for the Presidency instead of as the President,  he reverted to the Liberals' game-winning shot: he told me it wasn't a valid comparison.

HOV so are you saying

number of votes equals experience???  what does that have to do with experience?  please explain.

"You can not support the Troops if you do not support their Mission" 

The difference is that more

The difference is that more than 18 million people decided he was going to be the nominee.

And how many people decided that Biden was going to be the VP nominee?

I just read somewhere this question: Given that you have two
inexperienced candidates, would you rather have one of them a hearbeat
away from the Oval Office, or actually IN the Oval Office?

Every Anti-Palin arguement

Every Anti-Palin arguement the MSM comes up with just reflects back on Obama.

And when people realize he isn't a heartbeat away from being POTUS, he will be POTUS, then the stupidity of voting Obama will be painfully obvious.

delete double

delete double

it's that Palin really is

it's that Palin really is the least experienced figure on a national ticket in modern times.

I guess you never heard of Geraldine Ferraro ?

I most certainly have. And I

I most certainly have. And I stand by my statement. Three terms in the House is nothing to sneeze at.

The House of Representatives, that great exec breeding ground

Indeed, I agree.  Three terms in the House entitles one to a GREAT retirement plan 100% exempt from SocSec AND is adjusted for inflation!!!

Yeah, that great breeding ground of executive experience, the HR.  Do you recall when was the last time a President was elected that came directly out of the HR?  Hmmmmmm?

I'd rather groom a VP than provide a POTUS on-the-job training...

Whoever casts a vote for Obama-Biden is nothing more than a common thief.  Whoever fails to vote against them is nothing more than a moral coward.

ah-choo !

ah-choo !

Harvest, can you honestly

Harvest, can you honestly say that, of all the Democratic candidates, Obama was the most qualified?

Again, these sound like

Again, these sound like talking-points from cable news. The options you gave me aren't always mutually exclusive. And to me, experience doesn't necessarily equal competence. Never has. Over 18 million people decided Obama would be their nominee. He defeated the Clinton machine. I can't help but be impressed by that.

so HOV

it is naught but a popularity contest to you???

are you like ah skipping school to be here dude?

"You can not support the Troops if you do not support their Mission" 

Contradictions collapse

Much like your cable-news talking points on Palin's "inexperience"?

Too bad for you that Palin STILL has more executive experience than Obama... 

Whoever casts a vote for Obama-Biden is nothing more than a common thief.  Whoever fails to vote against them is nothing more than a moral coward.

HOV

What impresses you more:

The fact that George Soros has unlimited amounts of money to prop up his New Commie protege after throwing al those millons at his former protege John F Kerry or

That HRC grossly underestimated his success in trumping her "Gender"card with the "Race" card. After that game, set, match!

Chris Matthews: Obama's Win a 'Magic Moment,' Like 'Camelot'

This town needs an enema! - The Joker

HOV, trust me, Barry-O will rue the day he dissed HRC...

...but that wasn't even his biggest screw-up.

His biggest f-up (to date) was when the brain-dead idiots running his campaign accused Geraldine Ferraro of being a racist.

While Hillary is detested by many, Geraldine Ferraro is respected by many more, including me.

In case you haven't noticed, Ferraro has been saying some rather positive thinks concerning McCain's choice for VP.

What is more, McCain is essentially a L*I*B*E*R*A*L, which will make him a very attractive alternative for many women dems in November.

 

-Dave.

There's a slogan for you:

Obama: More corrupt than the Clinton's

I loved "She managed as

I loved "She managed as mayor, as governor, not on a substantial level"...

Campbell, what has Obama managed?

And I love how Duhaime got her to admit that Obama lacks experience too! LOL!

I just wish he had asked her if, of all the Democratic candidates, she really thought Barack Obama was, to use her own words the most qualified.

You know...

You know, Tim Kaine was given quite a bit of attention as a VP candidate for Obama, and he has no more experience than Palin, possibly less.

And yet, I don't remember people criticizing him this way.

Far be it from me to play the gender card, but...I'm just pointing out what I've noticed. I report. You decide.

You are really equating

You are really equating managing the city of Richmond to a podunk town in Alaska? That's like comparing apples to oranges, man. Unbelievable.

Obama's Experience

Obama's lack of experience is not nearly as important to me as his appaling lack of judgment.  He seems better suited to hosting seminars with Bill Ayers and Father Flager.

Please mentally graduate from High School!!!

A "podunk town in Alaska"?  My Obama, your Leftist elitist snobbery reeks... 

Whoever casts a vote for Obama-Biden is nothing more than a common thief.  Whoever fails to vote against them is nothing more than a moral coward.

Thank you. Vinyl is a broken record of snobbery.

wow harvest

I bet next you'll be telling us the sprawling metropolis of Richmond rivals Chicago!

My dear I live in Richmond and know a thing or two about Kaine. He was not even voted into the office of mayor but was appointed by the city council. His illustrious terms as mayor and governor have given us bogus gun control laws, higher taxes, toll increases, and little improvement.

Now compare the fact that Palin has made swift reform in the time she's been given. You might be satisfied with 35 years of status quo (Biden) or four years of running for president (Obama) but some of us like to see the proof in the pudding. 

Well to these civil-service

Well to these civil-service snobs experience means "a lifetime of public service" (read: never had a real job.)

That's why Governors beat the pants off Senators in elections. The only reason a Senator will win this time is that there's no other choice.

No, I'm comparing...

No, I'm comparing being Governor of 17% of the nation's land area to being a "community organizer".

What a stupid statement.  I'm talking about being Governor of AK vs. Governor of VA.  Exactly as I said. This "mayor of Wasilla" stuff is crap. Every time someone bring it up, just say "community organizer". I think they'll get tired of this game pretty quick.

Charlie Crist

Charlie Crist has about the same amount of "experience" as Palin.

Two rich white guys...

Two rich white guys, both with lots of experience in national/international politics are running for office. Both have very inexperienced running mates.

Question is, do you want the inexperienced one to be a heartbeat away from the oval office, or would you rather the inexperienced one to be IN the oval office?

I REALLY like Palin. She's pretty much the reason I will now vote for McCain. She seems to be a true conservative that backs the second amendment. In less than two years in office, she purportedly has turned the AK budget into a budget surplus with a savings account to boot.

I'm all for the balance between female and male in power. I think that the reason the nuclear family was so strong was that it was ruled by the hard-headed logic of the male, with the soft-hearted compassion of the female. I think these two will make a GREAT team in the white house.

Fascism is a religious conception in which man is seen in his imminent relationship with a superior law and with an objective will that transcends the particular individual - Mussolini

If the Dems aren't worried

If the Dems aren't worried about how Palin will stack up against Biden, they should be.

Here's a couple of observations.

Biden is the bar bore loud mouth. The old guy trying to look young with the almost comb-over, who thinks he knows it all, and let's everyone within earshot (which would be for five blocks in either direction) know his misguided opinion on everything. All the time.

He tells the same stories all the time, because he's gotten fat and lazy vegetating in the same job for thirty-five years. He expects respect, because, well he's Big Man on Capitol.

Palin is the good-looking woman barkeep Biden patronizes as he hits on her at the bar, because he naturally assumes she's bound to be dazzled by his brilliance.

Except she's smarter than him, faster than him, and actually tougher than him.

So when the smack down comes, he doesn't even see it coming till she's left him on the side of the highway like week old roadkill. Which is kinda funny, because that's also what he has sitting atop his head.

I was watching CNN during

I was watching CNN during that interview. Campbell Brown, who has demonstrated her liberal bias many times on her shows, was obviously frustrated with the selection of a woman on the Republican ticket. It was the same frustration I saw throughout the day on CNN and MSNBC. All of them were visibly frustrated that they had to discuss this woman, Sarah Palin, who was now on the Republican ticket rather than The Magnificent One's speech the previous night.

You got the distinct impression watching all these liberal media types that they felt that John McCain was just not playing fair in selecting a woman!

As the governor of Alaska

As the governor of Alaska she has had to deal with two neighbors. 

First she shares the longest international border of any of the 50 states with Canada.  She has negotiated with them to build a natural gas pipeline that wil run from Alaska to the lower 48.  She also shares fishing grounds with Russia who in recent years has become more begligerent. 

 Now I realize that none of this riviles B Hussien Obama's experience of living in Indonesia from when he was 6 until 10, but I think its pretty good.  She was elected to public office for the first time in 1992 when BHO was just starting his time as a Law Professor.  Oddly, BHO has never seemed to think he needs any experience as he got a job as a Law professor before he graduated from Law school and along time before he passed the Bar. 

 I think the experience fight is one that we can win and I welcome it. 

"The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it." -Ronald Wilson Reagan

If I remember my 8th grade

If I remember my 8th grade civics lessons about the Balance of Powers correctly the office of the Vice President is in the Executive Branch. Saying that experience in one branch confers wisdom in another is nonsense. It's like if you call up looking for an electrician the person on the line says, "Nope, don't know any thing about 'lectricity but my partner knows gobs about plumbing."

Palin has experience in the job she is seeking -- Obama and Biden have none. There is a reason that most Presidents have been Governors -- not Legislators. And having zilch experience in Washington is considered terrific news among most of the electorate.

Another thing

She had her fifth child in April of this year. She was told in her fourth month that the baby was likely to be born with Down Syndrome. I mention this because she was still able to govern for nine months during what must have been a difficult pregnacy. Palin's way tougher than either of those two Senator Mamby Pamby's.

One more thing

when GWB chose Cheney as his running mate the MSM kept up with experience factor. CHENEY'S! How many times did we hear how he was the brains of the business. Now that Bambi's running it's a whole different spin, unless of course you're John McCain. Liberal bias in the media indeed. Keep up the good work NB!

Darth Biden

Great point connman!

We can't have Darth Biden running the Shadow Government.

Yes!

"I think the experience fight is one that we can win and I welcome it. "

I could not agree more, but the fight on experience needs to be focused squarely on Obama vs Palin.  The Media is trying to compare Palin to everyone but Obama and for a very good reason -- at worst, Obama has virtually identical credentials in terms of experience but he and not she is running for the top job.

All this identity politics is just a foolish distraction.  Compare Obama and Palin and their experience.  Then tell me Palin is not qualified to be VP but Obama is qualified to be President.  It can't be done with a straight face.

 

BIASSSSSS?

Breaking News: AP reports

Breaking News: AP reports that a source close to the McCain campaign has revealed that Sarah spent the night before the anouncement at a Dayton Holiday Inn Express.

That should pretty much put the 'experience' issue to bed.

BTW, it is well worth your while to look at the link in an earlier post to a youtube video of an OBVIOUSLY SLOSHED (or loaded) Joe Plugs Biden on the campaign trail with Obammy. Looks to me like there is a set-up going on for Obammy to dump Plugs Biden and pull in Hillary. Watch the skies.

CapR... Has that ever

CapR...

Has that ever been done before...dumping a VP pick before the election is over? Oh I take that back, wasn't there Eagleton (sp) or something like that with the drug issue with wife, and mental illness/shrink with him supposedly...I should take the time to google it...too lazy. 

Not that I think for a minute a leftist wouldn't do it..whether it has been done before or not...the msm would back whatever the messiah does with glee...being the dumb lemmings they are...the question I wonder about though...is would Hillary even accept the offer after all this, when she knows he is going to lose and is getting her sweet revenge and ducks in a row already...

I just don't see her doing it now....unless she could guarantee she ruled all....and I mean all.

Michelle would never bend to that...never.

Yes, it was Eagleton. If

Yes, it was Eagleton. If you got a chance to look at the youtube video I referred to in my post I think you will see what I mean. If it was as appears (and is obvious), I wouldn't be surprised to see an anouncement by tomorrow afternoon that Sen Biden has suddenly taken ill and it appears he health will not allow him to tolerate the riggors of the campaign.

This promises to be very, very interesting. I wonder if any of the MSM is going to pick up on this whopper of a story.
