Yes.  Executive experience is  more helpful than Legislative.

Right.

Being mayor of a town of five thousand and spending two years as governor of one of the smallest states in the union is much more helpful to a commander in chief than serving on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee or the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Actually, it is better experience.  Obama's fly-by visits at Senate committees while running for President are no substitute for having to make decisions and being responsible for them consequences, no matter what the level.  There is also the fact that unlike any President or Vice President in recent history, both McCain and Palin will each have a personal reason to consider before committing American troops to action.  (Unless you consider the "high-risk" position Biden's son has as a National Guard JAG to being even close to being equivalent to being a marine or an infantryman.)

My newspaper pretends that this pick was a big surprise. Huh

When she was listed on all the shortlists, and the only reason I didn't think it likely was that it seemed too obvious, including too obviously pandering.

Nah, she was on the long lists and most medium lists, but not the short lists I saw in the media.
