On the other hand, what is "experience" really worth, anyway? I imagine that, in the lives of some, it's worth a great deal, but it doesn't benefit everyone. The suits that have been running the corporation I used to work for -- McClatchy -- all have plenty of "experience," but they still sank the company.
Personal characteristics -- integrity, intelligence, mordant wit, proper respect for my money -- are more important to me than what the CV says, especially in big politics. Actually, I'm generally disilussioned & perhaps even repulsed by the Newt Romneys & Mitt McCains on Capitol Hill -- all their hundreds of years of experience amount inevitably to pandering, corruption, & tyranny.
