Rell Heads to National Convention With Her Political “Barameter”

Friday August 29, 2008

Gov. Jodi Rell just met Capitol reporters for a few minutes in her office, to react to the selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate and talk a little about the GOP National Convention.
But she took an inadvertent slap at Barack Obama,
“We’re in the 2st century,” she said of Palin. “Being a woman shouldn’t make any difference.She was also a mayor of a city and certainly is governor and I would guess if you looked at the experience of Sen. Barama, he was a state senator and a one-term US senator and he’s spent half of that term campaigning for president and I don’t know if his experience is certainly greater.”
The Blogster guesses that mistaking Obama for a weather-prediction advice isn’t quite as bad as calling him “Osama.”
