"My understanding is that Gov. Palin’s town, Wassilla, has I think 50 employees. We've got 2500 in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe 12 million dollars a year – we have a budget of about three times that just for the month,” Obama responded.

Does anyone think Obama is doing David Axelrod's job for him?

5 stars - running for office is not managing or leading

Rule One in campaign is to not be your own campaign manager. You are too busy being the candidate, saying the lines, and meeting the voters to be managing the details of the campaign organization. Obama was too busy practicing his speech to attend to managing the Thursday production.

That was an Axelrod Production.

So will the future of the United States rest on who an inexperienced President picks as chief of staff?

And have we now lowered the bar so far to believe that the only experience needed to be President is to run for the office?
