Will Palin pick up some of Hillary's supporters?

Question

Palin is a strong Pro-lifer, anti-same s*x marriage, and pro-2nd ammendment.. Very important values for conservatives but will turn off most Hillary followers... Am I right on this?

Answer 1

There's plenty of stupid people out there, who might vote for someone because they look like their favourite relative.

What that percentage is, I can't guess, but I can guess there's a whole bunch of idiots out there, who might vote just on s*x.

Answer 2

there will be some, most definitely. More importantly it is energizing the Conservative base in a way no one thought McCain could.  

Answer 3

Yes.  McCain's pick of Palin was brilliant!  She is one of the small town, gun loving, bible girl that Obama heavily critized in Pennsylvania.  She should draw in a lot of votes.

Palin - "Hillary left 18 million cracks in the highest hardest glass ceiling in America, but it turns out the women of America aren't finished yet and we can shatter that glass ceiling once and for all."

Answer 4

OH yes, certainly not all, but yes some.

My wife has already gotten 2 phone calls from "fence sitters" who now say they are going for McCain because of Palin.

Sarah Palin

Real American girl next door

Star college athlete

Former beauty queen

Hunts, fishes

Life member of the NRA

5 children

Worked as a commercial fisherman

Plays Hockey

If you liked Hillary, then you'll LOVE Sarah.

NObama bin Biden

Answer 5

yes you are right

i think MCcain was quite dum for picking her he could of picked someone like mitt romney and maybe gotton some more votes but with her no way

Answer 6

What would you do :>)

Answer 7

Yup. If this is the reason for McBush's pick, he missed big time.

Answer 8

I think you're right.  If someone is truly voting on the issues, why would they switch from Hillary to McCain?  It makes no sense.  A lot of people wanted to do that out of spite, but I hope they listened to Hillary's speech at the conference.  She was right, you shouldn't be in it for the candidate, you should be in it for yourself.  

Answer 9

You bet she will... all the smart ones.

Answer 10

It will sway the Clinton supporters that were Clinton supporters solely because they wanted a female candidate. It will not sway any true Clinton supporter that supports her because of her beliefs.

Answer 11

When Hillary voters take a look at what she is all about, they will either not vote or vote for Obama/Biden.

Palin is hot and could pick up a lot of votes from horney guys.  

Answer 12

Very few. She's pro-choice, most women are'nt.

Answer 13

Yes you are....but than again there are some goofy woman out there that's going to be like "oh my god" he has a woman VP I'm voting for McCain i don't care what he/she stands for. I'm sorry but I'm not going to vote for a woman for VP/president because she is a woman...i couldn't live with myself if i voted for a pro life candidate and who is against same s*x marriage. Those two things i firmly believe in i couldn't' turn my back on that  

Answer 14

Hillary's supporters will ALWAYS do what she says.

If she says "support obama", i guarantee u, they will.

Answer 15

Liberal Democrat - No

Conservative Democrat - Yes

Independent - very likely

Liberal Republican - Yes

Conservative Republican - they probably go to heaven now.

smart choice McCain.  I'm trully impressed.

Answer 16

Some.  He certainly shored up the conservative base.

When you know a bit more about Governor Palin and the state she runs, you will see she is more experienced, especially on foreign dealings, than it first appears.

Answer 17

is the Pope Catholic?  

Answer 18

only if those supporters only liked hillary because she's a woman... their views aren't anything alike.  

Answer 19

YES. AND THERE IS NO WAY SHE IS QUALIFIED TO BECOME PRESIDENT SHOULD MCCAIN BE INCAPACITATED.

IN FACT THIS IS A SLAP IN THE FACE OF HILLARY DDEMOCRATS AND A DESPERATE MOVE BY MCCAIN.

Answer 20

Hillary supporters wanted Hillary not just any woman.  When you take public office you need to put the people first with Palin getting pregnant after serving for a short time shows me she has no control. Hillary supporters might just sit this one out, but I do think they should stop crying and work with what they got.

Cmon girls a guys whom marries a girl for her brains not her looks can't be all that bad.

Answer 21

The only thing they have in common is that neither one has a p***s, and.....

Well that's about it....

Answer 22

You are right. I say she might pick some non-feminist or non-liberal women (probably the older ones), as well as a handful of irrational persons (wo are morally, though not pragmatically, undesirable anyway)... That's my guess.

Answer 23

I'm a undecided voter

Barack Obama or John McCain's vp choice haven't switch who i'll vote for. I'm still a undecided voter. Although I think John McCain and Palin is a exciting ticket.  

Answer 24

Yes -- I'll bet this peels at least 3 million voters away from the Democrats.
