Is McCain’s VP pick a slap in the face to women?

Question

Does he really think women can be bought so easily? It’s obvious to all that he’s trying to mop up all the Hillary supporters, most of which are ardently Pro-Choice. What in the heck does McCain think he’s doing?

Answer 1

Hillary supporters are voting McCain sorry obama will join all the losers he had at his convention

Answer 2

Before this morning, I didn't know who Sarah Palin was.

I've been searching for information on her, and by what I've found, McCain made the perfect choice!

Also, she's Pro-Life.  So if he were trying to mop up all the Hillary supporters, I don't think Palin would have been his pick!

Answer 3

Is America a chessboard where John McCain must risk it all to win at any cost?

Sarah Palin sounds like a good person. I only ask at what point did she had aspirations to be READY as president of the USA. At least Obama put USA first as someone who can step in at a moments notice. McCain attack Obama for his inexperiences and bad judgments. McCain has put America at risk and I will not stand for it, if McCain should wins and god forsake something happens to him, I sure hope that the risk that YOU have made was a wise decision out of your faulty ones. I sure hope that RUSSIA does not attack anyone else...Lastly I do not want my children to be at risk because we have to put faith in your DECISION. I heard that she was at the Bottom of the list and for some reason jumped to the top really quickly. You must know something about her or know her very well...  

Answer 4

A slap in the face? Why?  Somone is responding since 3 million dollars has been raised since the announcement.  

Answer 5

He is definitely pandering to the Hillary Democrats.

Those who think a woman does NOT have the "right to choose" should vote for McCain.

McCain "believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned."

McCain and the Republicans believe a woman does NOT have the right to decide whether to have an abortion!

Answer 6

I find it insulting.  

Answer 7

If I were a woman, yes - I would find it very insulting.  As you said, it makes it appear like he thinks women supported Hillary SOLELY because she was a woman.

If it were a man with Palin's record - he would not even be considered a possible VP.  In fact, the thought of him being VP would be probably be laughed at.

Answer 8

ALL LIBERAL WOMEN find it insulting I wonder why?

Stop watching MSOBAMNBC.

Answer 9

No... it's not a slap in the face... but that doesn't mean it's going to work either...

McCain just keeps painting himself to look more and more like a political machine and he doesn't seem to realize that...

I voted for Hillary (in Florida, where it will really count...) and I am not persuaded...

Answer 10

I find it totally insulting of all women's intelligence
