Why are Democrats underestimating Sarah Palin ?

Question

She can really excite conservatives. Conservatives ranging from the National Review, to Rush Lambaugh, to James Dobson (who until now said he wouldn't vote for McCain) are really excited about the pick.

And she can excite conservatives without alienating independents. Sure, she might be a pro-life zealot, but she's a female pro-life zealot, which makes a difference.

Also, she'll inevitably attract a certain percentage of Hillary supporters, which could be enough to swing a close election McCain's way.

And she gave a flawless speech without flubbing a single line, unlike Biden's "Barack America" speech.

Answer 1

These dumb b******s fell for Obama, what do you expect. There all idiots. But John McCain will have the last laugh, that you can be sure of.

Answer 2

No one is underestimating Sara Palin but her own party members who are deep into pork barrel politics

Answer 3

Me personally...I don't underestimate anyone. And yes I am a democrat.  

Obama 2008-2016

Answer 4

She doesn't care about anyone but herself. Imagine a pregnant president. never. never. never. she beleives if a woman is raped and gets pregnant she should be forced to have the child and not be able to have an abortion. talk about a idiot. this woman is a no life from alaska who has no experience whatsoever. she was mayor of a town of 9,000..wow thats great experience. !!!!!!!obama 2008-2016!!!!!!!

Answer 5

You haven't factored in the REAL republicans who have been mortified that will stay home after today....but that's okay, you guys are real amateurs.  

Answer 6

sarah palin is pro-life, she hunts, she is a member of the NRA, she has 5 kids, she is a "good christian woman" all things the republicans are using to get the "average" (especially rural) women to vote for them.

yet they don't want these same women to get healthcare or our public schools to get decent teachers and decent funding!

it's her image, she is a pawn!

i see right through it (and i am one of those women they are trying to get!!)
