Do you think McCain picked Palin..?

Question

Because she is a woman and he wants Hillary supporters? Not necessarily saying I think so but what are your opinions?

Answer 1

Yes, I do.  

Answer 2

By assuming that women will vote for Pailn just because she is a woman is probably insulting women's intelligence. That's like me saying that I was gonna vote for Obama instead of Clinton because i'm a man and so is he. Hillary and Palin are on the opposite sides of one another when it comes to all the major issues..woman's rights to choose is the biggest. I couldn't see how a woman who wanted Hillary to win, would then vote for a a candidate who shares nothing in common with Hillary just cause she is a woman.

Answer 3

Good morning, sweetheart, you've finally figured it out!

Answer 4

That was a large part of it. She also makes the conservative base very happy and is a proven reformer.

Answer 5

he may need to replace his last mistress and this give the excuse of traveling together.

Answer 6

That woman is being investigated for corruption

Answer 7

I think he probably wanted to give us a historic election because if he wins and the VP is say Romney then it would be just the same old thing and people would be disappointed.

Answer 8

Absolutely, I think if Obama had of picked Hillary McCain would not have chosen Palin, she has none of the qualifications that other respectable republican women have. She is a far cry from Hillary. He's playing identity politics.  

Answer 9

The last thing we need is the Cons telling people how they should think and feel- and what they should do. It will only cause more of a divide and that is what scares Liberals

Anyone but McSame 08

Answer 10

This woman is qualified, and is the best candidate I've seen, as a staunch conservative. I am in disagreement with Michael Savage about this.

All decent women will be drawn to this woman.

THIS IS THE SORT OF WOMAN WHO SHOULD BE A ROLE MODEL FOR TODAY'S GIRLS, not a disgraceful liberal like Hillary Clinton.

Answer 11

McCain is besetted by the thought of being a Bush 3rd term candidate and considering that his vetted Vice Presidential listings are all considered Republican BUSHmen, McCain went to the extremes as dubbed "The Maverick" and implemented his own accord in selecting an unknown for his VP nominee. If to consider the issue's that should be talked about in all campaigns, McCain is resorting to campaign jokes, maybe with the thought that his jokes will divert issues that he cannot answer directly.

Answer 12

No. He probably knew that Hillary supporters would never go for Sarah.  The two of them are like night and day.

Answer 13

I think so.

Answer 14

Obviously,

Why would a person who always talks about Obama's (inexperience) pick a person who is just a runner up contestant in a pagent and a alaskan senator. I mean really, who knows her? It was also last minute as well. This will all but help McCain. He may get a few voters, but many will still be undecided until after the Republican convention.

Answer 15

Yeah but I think the biggest reason he picked her is because she's headstrong and like him, can get the job done.  

Answer 16

McCain googled her up.
