Why are most Americans too stupid to see through McCain's transparent attempt to get votes?

Question

His campaign makes it a point to criticize Obama's lack of experience, when Palin has been senator of Alaska (the state with the second smallest population) for just a year and has no experience whatsoever with foreign policy. McCain met her six months ago and had only talked to her once on the phone before choosing her as his running mate. What if McCain dies during his presidency? Would you really want someone as completely unqualified as Palin as president of the United States? It's just an attempt to gain feminists' votes, when everything she stands for is the opposite of progressive; for instance, she opposes same-s*x marriage. It is obscenely insulting how McCain believes America is stupid enough to vote for him because his running mate is a pretty face, and the worst part is many people will fall for it.

Answer 1

idk but even if im too young to vote im not falling for it. McCain is just more George Bush, too an extent. Obama leads change for the U.S.

and yea lol, i dont want some idiot lady to run our country lol. Too bad Obama will eventually get assasinated =[

Answer 2

way to make a fool of yourself.

Answer 3

Because most of Americans are stupid. We are after all in a country where one in five Americans cannot locate their country in a map. So it is not surprising that the republicans, although spending like drunken sailors, creating a huge deficit, and driving the economy to an abyss, still succeed in pulling the wool over people's eyes.

Answer 4

Your question is most transparent, too, Sir.  Some voters held off in their opinion until today.  I'm a registered Independent and now will cast my vote for Obama after hearing of McCain's choice of VP.  We're not as stupid as you think, Sir.  McCain has NO chance of winning the election.  I'll cast my vote for Obama.  Buck up, buddy and stop making idiot assumptions.

Answer 5

Helloooooooooooooooo if you are running for the President of the United States, you do/say things to get votes.  It's what we call politics.  It's what politicians do.  If you can LIVE UP to your campaign promises once you're elected, that makes you a great American and role model for future generations.  And McCain, I believe, will be a great President.

Answer 6

Look into her record. Stop discrediting her just because she is a women.  

Answer 7

Don't be a hater...

Palin is a great choice. She has a lot of great qualities that Conservatives love to see. That is what bothers Democrats the most. She's not running for Secretary of State, so don't worry about her foreign policy experience so much.... Come to think of it, Obama doesn't have any foreign policy experience either. Just a couple meetings which he talked about nothing important through a translator.....  

Answer 8

You see, its a win win proposition for those of your ilk.  If for some reason she ascends to the presidency, you will now have change.  Ah yes, Change.  Beautiful change.  Like a warm wind of change.  Change is so good.  What could be better than change?

And if he survives his term, she will have attended a bunch of funerals.  Perhaps she could finish up a book on global cooling.  And Obama, can go back to voting present and being the good father/husband that he appears to be.

Answer 9

Same reason people are duped into believe someone who uses change as a political platform and takes 18 months to think about what you might be able to do.

Answer 10

i am hoping soo soo much that it WONT be most americans. i pray to God that people wil see that Mccain is only doing everything to gain unfair popularity. I believe that obama will make the greatest president this country has ever seen. and...mccain owns seven houses.

Answer 11

Answer 12

Barak Hussein had his party crashed by an the "old man" and a girl.

Answer 13

IDK. Maybe your just too stupid to see they aren't.   Biden 08"

Answer 14

trust meh I am not stupid. w00t! Obama!

Answer 15

And yet the main topic on Palin's nomination over at Hillary's offical forum is resulting in hundreds of posts of Dem women who say they'll vote for McCain.

It may be easy to see through for us, but it's working on a lot of currently disenfranchised women.

Answer 16

if its so transparent how come you can see it?

Answer 17

Almost as stupid as falling for Obama's "charismatic personality"......He''s a jar of fluff, It looks full but it's really just air.....

Obamabots will begin to understand during the debates.

Answer 18

same reason obama's getting the black vote.  come to think of itl I haven't heard a single campaign promise from him.

Answer 19

And it's insanely stupid for black people to vote for Obama on the basis that he's black.

Answer 20

Palin is not running for president. The empty suit (Obama) is. And most people who are supporting him have already fallen for a line that is laughably unbelievable.

It's the American way.

Answer 21

Believe it or not were not all so blind we can not see.  Were going to hold his feet to the fire until they are exposed for what he is.  A rich old coot with too much time on his hands.  His policies are wrong , and everyone will see the light,  Their bad for the economy their bad for the middle class, and their bad for the rest of the world.  Here's a typical McCain promise...I don't want to raise taxes on anyone....What he means is he'll raise taxes on every one.  Here's Palin's plan for Alaska This is what she has in mind for the rest of us. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/lo...

Answer 22

Transparent? Let's talk about over 90% of the Black vote going Obama? Hmmmm...

Guess that's not high on the agenda for you...

Welcome to politics n00b, learn to play the game.

Obama got ***** slapped in this game and you know it. He has been VERY quiet since McCain Palin was givin the nod for VP...

Reason?

They did not expect it! McCain worked it perfect!

Again...

Welcome to politics...

It's an ugly business... Not just an empty speach...

NObama 08!!!!!!!!!

Answer 23

why are you too stupid to be posting this pointless question?

Answer 24

I agree with you. well said. McCain wants the votes of Clinton supporters. simple as that.  

Answer 25

I don't know.  

It is as though McCain could even lie to get us into a war, lie about 911, take away our privacy, restrict our freedom of speech, have his party get caught time and time again with lobbyists, destroy our reputation abroad, approve water boarding and other torture techniques, destroy our economy, destroy our environment, and lie to everyone and people will still vote for him.

Oops, I guess that happened already with Bush 2,

Answer 26

Go back and read the story again, you missed a few things, like she was not a senator. As governor she faced an experienced but corrupt administration and brought them to justice.

Answer 27

i agree with you.  i'm pretty much thinking wtf!!!! I hope people aren't stupid enough to fall for this.  

Answer 28

You said it best! Stupidity! Who the heck is Sarah Palin? Alaska!!! Hahahahahahaha! That is hilarious! If Hilary's voters fall for this then Hilary surely did not deserve to be president! Come on Please tell me that you women are smarter than this! Sarah Palin, I don't think so! Why is he playing games with our future?! Now I know I have seen enough of his ridiculous politics! No more of the same! Don't vote McCain!

Answer 29

>> when Palin has been senator of Alaska

d**n man, you're seriously ignorant.

Answer 30

She is still more qualified than Obama.  When you are ripping the second on the republican ticket, you rip the lead on the democrat.

There are debates still to come.  Why not shut your pie hole and see what happens there.  Not that it will change your mind but at least your opinion might have something to go from.

fs

If she had chanted: Hope, Change, Hope, Change, would she be qualified then?

Answer 31

You should do a little more research on her.  She has maintained a consistent 80% approval rating and has performed the "change" that America has been seeking in government on the state level... she cleaned house in Alaska of corrupt politicians.

Don't bash her because she actually has a record of acting on what she says she is going to do.

You are just scared because all your boy Obama does is talk.
