			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In defense of his own executive experience, Barack Obama pointed out that his campaign is a larger organization than the Anchorage suburb that Sarah Palin was mayor of. <a href="http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0908/An_experience_trap.html">John McCain&#8217;s campaign called this circular logic.</a></p>
<blockquote><p>
The McCain campaign, happy to talk about Obama&#8217;s experience, calls his using his campaign as an example &#8220;desperate circular logic&#8221; and pointing to Palin&#8217;s tenure as governor.
</p></blockquote>
<p>It&#8217;s not. Circular logic is when you assume something is true and then you use that assumption as a  premise to argue that the original thing you assumed was true&#8230; is true. Something like: A is true because B is true because C is true because A is true.</p>
