Teaching Political Science Has Its Benefits

Andrew Sullivan finds this a compelling argument:

[T]he thrust of the Dems' argument will not be that Palin is too inexperienced; it will be that McCain is being disingenuous when he argues that Obama is too inexperienced. This argument will gain wide acceptance among the pundit class, and it will also succeed with voters -- largely because it is correct, and obviously & instinctively so.

If they actually believe this it only proves they know nothing about American politics.

Name me a study in mass political behavior studies that show people operating in such a manner? (Hint: There isn't one.) Any half-way competent Political Scientists could tell you this is embarassing from anyone claiming to be an expert on politics.
