On the other side we've got a man with a degree in law from harvard who taught law in Chicago with a VP with a B.A. in history and political science.
If I want to someone to teach me how to fly a plane or ride an ATV, I'll tap McCain and Palin. If I want an intelligent person to make intelligent decisions regarding the future of our nation, I'll go with Obama, Biden.
Being a law professor = the ability to be president?
To be honest, I think both of their running mate choices suck, but MCain is far more qualified than Obama for the position. Obama is a new face that came out of nowhere and the media has a hard-on for him the same way it does for other hollow celebrities. As for "change we can believe in", is he serious? He thinks he can snap his fingers and do everything he wants to like that? The only change if he is elected is a new Trivial Pursuit card saying "Who was the first black president of the United States"?.
