Question

Has Palin hurt or helped McCain & has she hurt or helped Obama?

Answer 1

LOL helped McCain?  Obama recently broke the 50% mark (50-42) and everything is going his way right now.  Palin was the best thing that ever happened to him...you might say that McCain's chances of winning are "Palin" in comparison to Obamas!

Answer 2

Absolutely helped McCain.  She seems like the perfect balance for the ticket.  And honestly, I'd rather have a VP with limited experience (although she has double Obama's experience AND did it in a more difficult job) than a president with none.

Answer 3

Palin has just guarantee Obama the Presidency. McCain should have picked Rommey or Hucklebee as his VP. Instead, McCain thought he could steal the Clinton supporters by picking a woman. A woman that lacks experience and knowledge. Palin is a small time governor with radical views. Palin's environmental views alone will ruin McCain's hope of being President. Obama did a good job of picking a VP with experience. The media will focus more on Palin's faults than they will on McCain's policies.

Answer 4

I personally believe that she's done both...

Within the Republican party, which McCant needs to run in the election, the choice of the Beauty Queen as the running mate has helped him.

Outside the republican party, (the general U.S. population which is not fiercely already supporting McCant or Obama) she is hurting McCant....

McCant could have selected a drugged out monkey to be his running mate, and the rich, the big oil, the religious right, the rednecks, and the talking heads would all be spinning it to be the "best possible choice EVER!". They would be (as they are) praising it the high heavens.

The reality is that the women McCant tried to dupe into joining him (by selecting the small town mayor to be his running mate), are smarter than that, and won't be fooled by McCant's little political ploy...

I believe that in the big picture, McCant will regret this decision, until the day he dies.  

Answer 5

Look at the polls numbers.  She has really hunt McCain.

She is truly a gift that keeps on giving for the democrats.

Hot mic catches GOP strategists trashing Palin pick.
