Why did Sarah Palin's Speech, receive 5 million more female viewers than, Obama ?

Question

Was it due to the vicious attacks on Sarah's Children by the Obama Radicals. I have read, where there is already a Voter backlash against Obama Fans and their attacks.

Answer 1

Because she was somewhat of a mystery. She is like millions of women, mothers and women can relate to her. REAL women do have problems within the family and STRONG women don't give up. She's a very likable, relatable person.

Answer 2

OH PLZ OBAMA SAID NOTHING ABOUT HER KIDS SO EVERYTHING ELSE DON'T  MATTER AND TO BE CORRECT MCCAIN ATTACKED HIS FAM .

Answer 3

Yet Obama's had more viewers than the RNC altogether.

Answer 4

Because people want to see who John McCain thinks should be the President if he croaks.  I still can't believe it.

Answer 5

Because they are curious about a woman that is being trashed so badly and in a postion to be come the most powerful woman in the USA.

She is them and they vote.

Please provide some links where you read this so I can read it for myself.

Answer 6

I think the more important question is "Why did Sarah Palin's speech interest 10 million more viewers than John McCain's?"

Is it too late to switch it to Palin/McCain?

Answer 7

/ Obama dissed women.  Not just by ignoring Hillary, but by ignoring women in general.  He is too much about himself to realize his mistake there.

McCain/ Palin '08 !

Answer 8

care to backup your claim with a source ?

always absent is the source.....typical

Answer 9

Yeah, I feel bad for him, its not his campaign its the left winger fanatics...they are taking the bait and its making them all look bad.  

Answer 10

That's not true.

2 million more watched her but they can't distinguish if they were women or men.

And since Palin doesn't give interviews, naturally people were curious to know more aobut her.

That's the only reason she had more people watching.  Because there was such hype about her, folks wanted to know who she was.

Answer 11

It's feminine nature to be curious about other females.  Especially the ones who are in the spotlight.

This in no way means that all the women who watched approved of her.

Answer 12

She's just awesome, and people are curious!  

Answer 13

i think because for women...she is alot like them a mom...and a woman...how many times have we had a woman this close..one other time in history...its a big deal...not the only reason to vote for a republican..but a huge one regardless of your party affiliation

Answer 14

I think some women need to see what she has that Hillary Clinton doesn't.  She sparks curiosity.  And we need to see if she's going to make history.
