See, there you are criticizing her for her actual positions and statements. I may disagree on the value of her experience vs. Sen. Obama's, but let's be clear we're not arguing over their token aspects.

So, I think her old comments on the vice presidency were apt. If being offered the position by a McCain Presidency, she would need to know what it would entail. The powers of the VP, other than tie-breaking in the Senate, are defined by the presidency. There's not much more "there" there. The VP was once considered the graveyard of politics. It's only since fairly recent times that the position had any power.

As to the rest, Obama's experience is is something we'll disagree on; I'm very disappointed in his performance, having given him my vote twice before this campaign - he was for a time my state senator and US Senator. He never has been in a position to decide anything in government, and Emil Jones ran him on a fast track in the IL senate.

But this, my good friend, is a good argument.
