Do you really think voters will buy the On the Job training argument? I don't.

The point is McCain will have to answer a question about her qualifications. It's going to be difficult for him to say she's qualified and then turn around and attack Obama's qualifications. I'm not saying he won't do it, but it's definitely more difficult than if he had someone like Romney.
