If you want to talk real, firsthand experience, McCain wins hands down. He has what, 22 years in the senate? More than Obama and Hillary combined. I'm not claiming that senate experience makes a good president, but that's the only real experience any of them have.
Last week there was a pretty good article in TIME about how unimportant supposed "experience" really was per a future prez.

Mentioned the great presidents such as Lincoln and FDR who had little experience along with lowly regarded VP's such as Chester Arthur and Truman who also became very highly rated presidents.

Then there were the LBJ and James Buchanan types with a mountain of experience who basically "failed miserably."
