I could show you a link that says that Obama's running for president. I think that implies that he thinks his overall experience makes him fit to be president, as silly as that is.
The Republicans started trashing the community organizer stuff after the Democrats started trashing Palin being a mayor of a small town. (And I'm sure some did it before then, but the direct attacks at the RNC were clearly a response to the Obama camp's critisisms of Palin)
And beyond that, if Obama tries to play up that experience as anything relevant (which he does), it's not unreasonable for the other side to downplay the experience. That's what you do in a campaign.
