Why did McCain pick Palin, does such a BONEHEAD decision play to his dementia and lack of judgement?

Question

Poor little Republicans.

Answer 1

He's tryin' to git some...

Answer 2

He picked her, for the fact that she is female. He needs the Hillary/Female voters, or he is in deep trouble on that vote.

Answer 3

It is a very sneaky choice.   He thinks he'll get the disaffected Hillary voters.  Plus her youth (they think) will tone down the criticism that McCain is such "an old guy."  In other words, the choice for Palin is totally based on helping McCain get elected.   No real consideration as to what sort of VP (or heaven forbid) president she might make.   McCain is thinking first of getting elected, of what's good for the country second.

Answer 4

McCain is not supposed to win that is why.  McCain does not have the bloodline.  Obama has the bloodline.  

Answer 5

He's following in Bush's footsteps. Remember ...........Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job? lol

McSame!

Answer 6

Because McCain is bonehead. To get support from the anti abortion gun lovers.
