Since Republican nominee John McCain has been woefully unable to explain whether the US economy is "fundamentally strong" or "in crisis," his campaign has dispatched Carly Fiorina to tout McCain's position on the current economic crisis. Recently, Fiorina claimed that Palin was unqualified to run a major corporation. Responding to questions from Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC a short while ago, Fiorina made the following claim:
Well, I don't think John McCain could run a major corporation. I don't think Barack Obama could run a major corporation. I don't think Joe Biden could run a major corporation. But on the other hand, a major corporation is not the same as being the President or Vice President of the United States. It is a fallacy to suggest that the country is like a company. So, of course! To run a business, you have to have a lifetime of experience in business. But that's not what Sarah Palin, John McCain, Joe Biden, or Barack Obama are doing.
(A fallacy, eh? Well, if John McCain knows about anything lately, he knows about fallacies.)
