Do you think McCain chose a woman VP just to get more voters?

Question

Whoa....I'm not downplaying her at all! I think she's pretty awesome.

And I'm not liberal...I'm more conservative.

Answer 1

Of course. Naturally, isn't that one of the reasons a candidate chooses a running mate?

Answer 2

Yes!  

Answer 3

If John McCain thought that choosing Sarah Palin would attract Hillary Clinton voters, he is badly mistaken.

The only similarity between her and Hillary Clinton is that they are both women. On the issues, they could not be further apart

Answer 4

That's not the only reason. But that's one of the reasons that any VP is chosen.

Answer 5

Yes, that is always the highest priority for selecting a VP candidate.
