Dems' Résumé Gap

I couldn't have said it better myself, and this comes from the dean of the WaPo's political reporters, David Broder: The Résumé Gap:A Democratic Field Without an Executive. It takes one of their most experienced observers to point out the latest Dem big government wannabe emperor and empress have no clothes.

It was fascinating to watch the three top contenders for the Democratic nomination discuss their concept of the presidency during Tuesday night's MSNBC debate in Las Vegas. But it was also stunning to realize that the three current and former senators who have survived the shakeout process -- Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards -- have not a day of chief executive experience among them.

By contrast, the Republican field is loaded with people who are accustomed to being in charge of large organizations.
Well, it is stunning to Republicans how Democrats would even consider running themselves, or supporting candidates with such thin resumes.

But then with the Dems it's always how they feel, not what they actually could do. Democrats never actually solve problems, they just like to talk about them and demagogue, so why would we expect anything different in their candidates?

UPDATE: Ross Perot calls Newsweek to slam McCain. (And supports Romney). He's still a character.

UPDATE: VDH. Hillary has gone wild. It's not what you think. Then again who would think that of Hillary.
