Does the GOP think Americans are that uninformed on the issues that Hillary supporters will vote for Palin?

Question

In reality they couldn't be any different on the issues

Answer 1

Only the most sexist feminazis would change their entire political ideology just to vote for a woman. I think McClone is showing his age.  

Answer 2

Yes, and the horrible truth is that they're probably right. Americans are unbelievably ignorant when it comes to politics. I mean look at these questions and answers we get in Yahoo Answers. Obama will raise taxes on 5% of Americans while giving a tax break to 95% of them. And McCain as many people believing that HE will be the one to give the tax break while Obama raises taxes on everybody ! That's a perfect example of how ignorant people are. And of course you can come up with many examples yourself.

Answer 3

I agree that Hillary and Palin share nothing political in common.  Highly refreshing.  

I doubt the choice had anything to do with Hillary supporters, personally.

Answer 4

Seems like a pretty desperate ploy to me.  For Sarah Palin to talk up Hillary Clinton when her positions on a woman's right to choose and her entire political philosophy are antithetical to Hillary's is completely disingenuous.  It is a transparently cynical ploy and most Hillary supporters will see through it.

Answer 5

Exactly!  Additionally, Hillary is a woman of substance, how can McSame think that people will fall for his little ploy to get her voters by offering them someone like Palin.

Answer 6

If they are smart they would for two reasons

#1 Hillary could run again in 2012 if McCain wins

#2 Palin stands for what she believes in unlike Obamas many many senate votes that he voted present on not yes or no.

If you stand for nothing you will fall for anything.

Answer 7

Hillary supporters won't vote for McCain/Palin; they are too smart to vote for more deficit spending, ongoing wars/rebuilding, and other inept acts performed by the current clowns in office.

Answer 8

Yep, that's what they hope for.

It's very clear McCain is willing to risk having that unqualified lady become commander in chief in these troubled times just to win a few votes. Can anyone seriously argue she'll be ready on day one if that should be necessary?

Is that country first? Risking the future of America's children to pick up some female voters? What an insult to the intelligence of the good American people.

Hillary supporters are way too smart to fall for this ploy. McCain is embarrassing himself.

Answer 9

Karl Rove is behind this scheme

Answer 10

No.  Senator McCain baited a trap.  So far, it looks like you've bitten.

EDIT:

Trap #1- She STILL has more elected, executive, and foreign diplomacy experience than the top of the Democrat ticket.

Trap#2-  Senator McCain is making Senator Obama's "attack dog" treat her very carefully lest there be a backlash amongst women for whom abortion is not an important issue.

Trap#3-  Senator Biden is now going to be forced to defend the Democrats energy policy (by the way the majority of Americans do favor domestic drilling) which is not his strength.

True, Senator Obama may still be elected.  It's also true that he hasn't been able to seal the deal with those he has antipathy for because they are not like him.

Answer 11

IMO, Palin isn't going to persuade that many people. McCain thinks Hillary supporters are stupid enough to vote for Palin just because she's a woman. I think he made a really bad choice in choosing her.  

Answer 12

Just because she is a woman doesn't mean she can't handle the job of VP.  What's with denigrating the ability of women to get things done even when the good ole boys won't let them in.  Palin has gone up against the establishment at every step in her public service career, unlike both guys on the Democratic ticket who got the help of political insiders.  Dems say they want CHANGE but the only real change seems to be in party name only.  All indications are that it would be business as usual.

Answer 13

do no teven mention hildebeast in same sentence as Sarah Palins, Sarah is MILES ahead a better women than that lying scumbag hillary

Answer 14

What issues?  People don't give a d**n about issues.  They just want low taxes and deficit spending to give them all those goodies the government can hand out.

Also a lot of people enjoy a good war as long as they don't have to fight in it.  It's like watching a football game on TV rather than playing the game yourself.

Answer 15

Hopefully all American voters will get informed & vote on their beliefs.

And Sarah Palin is a very accomplished woman, well suited to be in high office, whether you agree with her views or not.

Answer 16

Bottom line is, "the People" are getting wise about Obomba, and want to vote for an American who is gonna be the best person for the job.  You is just to blind to see it!  Keep that trap door open for O, when he does a big boom boom...lmao
