The experience paradox

The latest Gallup poll/show shows that Americans don’t care as much about experience as Hillary Clinton wishes they did. When asked who has the experience necessary to be president, McCain scores a yes with 70%, Clinton with 65%, and Obama gets less than half: 46%. But asked what matters when they vote, 42 percent say leadership skills and vision, 34 percent say positions on issues, and only 22 percent say experience. And, of course, experience has been Clinton’s key message.
