Does having a husband and five children prove that Sarah Palin is out of touch?

Question

In lower Manhattan and the left coast?

Answer 1

Imho, yes.  Considering the current global human population, 2 kids should be the maximum for any couple.

Answer 2

who in their right mind would WANT to be in touch with those nuts.

Answer 3

No, it means she "Doesn't get it". Since she's married she is obviously submissive and subservient to a man. She has five children which apparently means she hadn't had an abortion. That's a mandatory step to womanhood according to the left. Also having children indicates she is not a L*****n. She's white which means she must be a racist. Being the Governor of Alaska she also welcomes global warming so her greedy Republican friends can open seaside resorts on Alaska's southern coast. Additionally being  the Governor of a state that produces oil she must be getting some kind of kickbacks form the oil companies that are gouging the American consumer. She thinks oil spills are funny and giggles at dead Polar Bears. On top of that she's attractive.

He list goes on. She is the left's worse nightmare.

Answer 4

No, I'm OK with it.  

If she says she's not sure how many children she has, and will have her staff get back to us, then that is more of a concern.

Answer 5

No and that's a pretty silly thing to say.  

Edit: Then give me best answer because I live in lower Manhattan and I understand your question quite well--hence my answer.

Answer 6

it proves that she cannot be VP, cause taking care of 6 people and being a governor of a sparsely populated state is waaaaaaay different from running a country and if McCain doesn't get that, he is not ready to be president despite his claims of experience.

Answer 7

Huh? Because she's a married mother of five she's an idiot? Is this what you are asking? Because if it is, you need a reality check. Quick.

Answer 8

Of course...and I'm out of touch with Manhattan and the rest of the east coast (by the way, I live in NY -- 30 minutes from Manhattan) because I have two kids, two dogs, and teach 200 students in a high school.  How could I possibly have ANY time to do anything that would require any cerebral function?  The only things I'm capable of include a mop and bucket, a vacuum, and a can of Comet.   What CENTURY were you born in???  

Answer 9

It means she is in touch with "real' America!

Answer 10

No, having a husband and five children doesn't mean she's out of touch.  Very unlike a lot of "unwed others", who do nothing but have kids to soak the "ever-so-generous" government out of more of our tax payer dollars by being on welfare and crying...."poor me".  If something doesn't stop soon, the country will be nothing but half-brothers and half-sisters, because they are never bred from the same father. Its pitiful, and disgusting!

Answer 11

If having to deal with more than the average family does, means out of touch to you.Sure,,,

I'm liking this feisty gal.

Congrats Sarah Palin !

Answer 12

How can she be vp or President when 90% of us dont know her.... She's not ready or Deserve to be president.

She Has 5 Kids... One that is ill... she need to take care of whats most important HER FAMILY  

Answer 13

I would suggest it's lower Manhattan and the left coast that are "out of touch" (and I've lived in both Manhattan and Ohio).

You can read up on Palin with the links to local Alaska media coverage of the announcement in the special Sarah Palin section on the front page of http://www.USAMediaGuide.com, including a link to the Anchorage newspaper's biography of her.

Answer 14

McCain should agree with insurance for BC because she definitely needs some!!

Answer 15

yeah! a working mother of 5.. HAS to be an elite GOPer... right!??! ...yeah!!

(man did they EVER break the stereotype the Dems were banking on)

Answer 16

Eve, maybe you spend too much time with your clitoris? This woman made something of her life.

Answer 17

Yes. Her patriotic American values are anathema to everything those type of people stand for

Answer 18

I think McCain did an excellent job in picking his VP.  She's got a great resume for someone of her age and can do it all and be a mom too.  Good for them both!!  It blew Obama right off the front page!

Answer 19

Out of touch?  Idk...but maybe Out of her mind.  That's a lot of kids...

Answer 20

What?  You want her to be unmarried with five children, all with different fathers, who were on welfare until their mother made it in politics?  I think it means she is a emotionally mature, loving, nurturing woman who also is Governor of her state.

Answer 21

Its cold and dark 6 months out of 12.  What else is there to do?  Thank goodness she can come up for a breather for a few months.  It'll probably keep her from having another kid.

Answer 22

I would have thought that qualifies her moore than most.

Answer 23

What? LOL

With children in every age category and a husband, I'd say she's more in touch with the middle class than Obama or Biden could ever hope to be.

Also, Sarah Palin has more executive experience than Obama and Biden put together!

One more thing... There's something I get from her. Maybe it's the heart and honesty of a person that lives on the frontier. Does that make sense to anyone? It's hard to explain but for some reason I trust her more than any other person in the race.

Any way, I think McCain made an excellent choice!

Americans for America

McCain/Palin for America

Answer 24

She is in touch with a whole lot more of us moms and women than you think!

Answer 25

Lower Manhattan is the financial district and those who live there are proportionately more male.

Answer 26

What I want to know is does she actually take care of her kids or does she have a nanny

Answer 27

I think it may make her more aware of reality as we live it.

The real life that you and I both live - the cost of everything has gone up everything except salaries. And yes I think having a family keeps you from thinking you are hot stuff-- kids have a way of keeping a Mom's ego in check.( lol ).

Answer 28

I would hardly call a fine lady with proven strong leadership ability 'out-of-touch'-----she refused to pander to big oil and other special-interest groups and will be able to take Pelosi and other left-wing liberal head-on.

What the democrats really object to is a woman with a proven strong leadership track record that will help President McCain lead us in the direction we need to go. Vice President Palin will give women new hope and be a breath of fresh air. The time to suppress us us before we were given the right to vote----the cat is out of the bag and we will be heard.

McCain/Palin '08

Answer 29

Well five children no. Many of Baracks aquantices from south Chicago have five children. Yes she is out of touch as far as having a husband and not living off welfare.

Answer 30

It proves she needs to be at home with her kids! I bet they ain't latch-key kids like alot of us working mom who have children that come home to an empty house.  

Answer 31

She is out of touch with a women's right to choose. Sarah Palin is Pro Life and that will not get her those Hillary Clinton voters.
