Now that McCain has chosen a woman as a running mate will all the feminists back her or not?

Question

All we here about is how racists and sexist conservatives are so now that Palem is the new VP running mate will all the feminist groups support her or is the ideology only founded around liberal women who have had abortions or are single moms?

Answer 1

She is an anti-choice homophobic bigot, so NO, intelligent women will not vote for her.

Answer 2

The feminists  I know would vote for the candidate who will do the most FOR women, not necessarily the one who IS a woman.  Palin is anti-choice, anti-g*y rights, and favors teaching creationism in schools--a fundamentally non-feminist agenda.

I don't think people will fall for it.

Answer 3

McCain trying to fast-track a "beauty contestant/local sports color-girl" PAST all of the women who have supported equality for women for decades, and into the second highest position in the free world, for the sake of adding window dressing to his campaign is the single most damaging thing he could have done to his campaign.

It is not only HIGHLY INSULTING to women, but he simply squandered the chance to add something substantial to his ticket.

McCain's "maverick" judgment malfunctioned.

I'm not sure this is the type of "strategist" that we want playing around with our national security.

Answer 4

Probably not. She isn't close to being a feminist.  

Answer 5

Palin will not get any support because of gender - she is far to extreme.  Right winger's will support her because of her radical right views.  Moderate and liberal leaning voters will run away in droves.  

No, feminists will not back her - she would set women's rights back 1,000 years.

Answer 6

If the democrat feminist failed to support Hillary, their is little chance that the they would support Palin. But what could happen is those undecided independents could go towards McCain.

Answer 7

h**l no!

she is anti-women and staunchly anti-abortion in every instance...even if the life of the mother is in jeopardy.

Answer 8

I doubt radical feminists will suport this choice.   But there are many Conservative women who will.  We know that most real decisions are made at the kitchen table anyway.

Answer 9

Not.

!. She herself is not a feminist.

2. Feminist are way too smart to fall for a stunt as stupid as this.

Answer 10

She doesn't represent squat for woman's issues. Woman vote with their minds not v****a's

Answer 11

She isn't a feminist.

She's a monster.

Look at how she devours this cake:
