Who besides me that McCain picking Sarah Palin is a desperate attempt to win over Hillary votes?

Question

Does he really think the American women are that stupid that we cannot see straight through his strategy?

Answer 1

Yes.  So, who's stupid?

Answer 2

Mitt Romney gets pie all over his face.

Answer 3

Who doesn't!

Its funny all the republicans are publicly behind Gov. Palin, but like they all know there were such better choices, but McCain is desperate to get elected, not to have teh best running mate!

Answer 4

I completely agree. You have to be blind to think that she was picked for any other reason then to win over Hilary supporters. Though this should be insult to them because she def. is no hilary. Republicans argue about obama's experience but then pick a person who isn't even a 1/4th experienced as obama for VP(She has served in state legislature for 20 months while obama has served 8 years in state legislature plus 2 years as senator). And remember a VP is suppose to take place of president if he happens to die(McCain if voted, would be oldest president).

Answer 5

I Do And As A Woman I Feel Offended And Its Obvious Now That This Man Can Not Be President

Answer 6

All the women I know who were going to vote for Hillary are now saying that they will vote of McCain (apparently they don't like Obama enough to vote the democratic ticket.

Answer 7

I'M WITH YOU - IT IS A DESPERATE MOVE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.  THE PRESIDENCY AT ANY COST IS OBVIOUSLY THEIR MOTTO! HOW DARE THEY THINK WOMEN ARE SO STUPID THEY WON'T SEE THROUGH THAT.

SAME OLD MEN, SAME OLD POLITICS....SAD

Answer 8

I'm totally in agreement with you.  why else would he choose a woman to be VP ...he figures there is a lot of Hilary supporters out there just dying to have a woman in office...and there he goes and picks Palin.  But I'm a woman who isn't going to fall for his little trick ...Palin is everything I'm not....Pro life, republican, ect ect  i will not be able to live with myself if i choose a woman who is pro life.  

Answer 9

Well, I talked to my aunt earlier today and she said that some women are women first, democrat second. So if McCain thinks that'll swing voters, it might (though probably not a lot hopefully)

Answer 10

It is desperation, and an intelligent person can see that. Im sick of the Republican spin on "Oh the Dems are scared." tactics. The Dems are not scared, and in the debates to come, Biden will eat Palin for lunch, as will Obama vs. McCain. Palin doesnt stand a chance against Biden, he will pick her apart, peice by peice. Shes just a pretty lampshade to cover a broken lamp, and thats it.

Answer 11

I agree. He would have been better off taking Grimace from McDonalds:

Answer 12

I agree, but is she that ill-suited for vise president? Do you think he would actually risk sabotaging the presidency, by picking someone he didn't think was qualified to run with him? She now represents him.

Answer 13

No, but your question shows how desperate Obama backers are to find something....anything wrong with her to stop that sinking feeling in the pit of their stomach.

It really does show your deperation, you know.
