Sarah Palin, mayor of a small town
I’m just wondering why the media keeps referring to Sarah Palin’s experience as “mayor of a small town,” and not as governor of Alaska. Calling her a mayor diminishes her importance and experience. She’s a governor. Get it right.

Are you really wondering why they are doing this? To me it is obvious. They are heavily biased and will do anything to swing the election to their candidate.
Here is an interesting fact… Obama claims that his position as director of the Developing Communities Project qualifies him to be president where he was a community organizer. Just to put things in perspective – the annual revenue during Obama’s best year at the Developing Communities Project was $400,000. The annual budget for Wasilla, Alaska is $13 million. Let’s see…. 13mil vs 400,000! Based on your argument, Obama is far less qualified than Palin to be president!!
Who said that qualified him? That happened right after college. There are a few intervening years in Obama’s life you might want to know about. In Palin’s case, there have been a few intervening months since she was the mayor of Wasilla.
Here’s an opinion piece on the organizing:

And here’s an article mentioning ACORN, the group for which Obama did his “organizing”:
