WHEN ALL OF PALIN'S WACKY BELIEFS AND DEEDS COME TO LIGHT AND IT SINKS IN THAT SHE COULD SHORTLY BE PRESIDENT, SHE WILL PROVE TO BE THE BIGGEST MOTIVATOR FOR DEMOCRATS AND INDEPENDENTS THAT

OBAMA COULD WISH FOR.

I'm a Hillary supporter that was really leaning McCain. I hoped Palin would be inspiring. I had two impressions of her speach.

1- George Bush with lipstick

2- The Republicans found a man in a dress - e.g. A woman who appeals to men and whose hobbies are masculine.

It's an insult to woman. They picked her because she doesn't throw like a girl. She's one of the guys. If I hear one more reference to moose hunting, I'll puke. The fact that she likes to kill God's creatures and then skill them is not inspiring to most woman.

That Palin woman should not be MENTIONED in the same sentence as Hillary Clinton. Ever. There is no comparison. Hillary is a dream, Palin a nightmare. She knows NOTHING about ANYthing and her attempts at humor are very contrived and unnatractive..

ahem, permalink: I doubt the women who let their men do the decision making for them were voting for Hillary in the first place. . .why would their husbands let them do that?

The Hillary supporters are (like Hillary) bright, educated and fiercely independant. This Hillary supporter isnt buying it. I wasnt so sure about Obama before, but after this McCain stunt now Im definitely on the Obama wagon. What a poor decision maker McCain is proving to be. Go Dems!

Yeah, Hillary supporters really dig women who...

1. Want creationism taught in schools.

2. Say that the Iraq War is God's plan.

3. Want Roe v. Wade overturned.

4. Want to ban books from the library and ban sex education in schools.

5. Then reduce the budget for Covenent Houses' pregnant teen program.

It appears that pregnant teens like her daughter are wonderful, but those pesky underprivileged teens just eat into her state's budget. Palin has a lot more "get overs" than a scandal over the firing of a state trooper.

Hold your nose and vote for McCain-Palin. Then put Hillary at the top of the Democratic ticket in 2012. If Obama wins, he'll hold office for 8 years, and then Biden will be on the top of the ticket in 2016 with Hillary as his VP. Can we wait that long?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I thought you were referring to the Arkansas Troopergate in which the State Troopers delivered Hil to her frequent rendezvous with another lawyer, Vince Foster, in her firm who later put a bullet through his brain (or was the shooter someone else?)in Washington, D.C. because he was about to be called to testify on Hillary???

OF, Are you and idot? It is very apparent that you are not married. If you think that "Church going women" are the way that you portray them submissive to their husbands like that well you don't know my wife. And you think that church going men would want to dominate their wifes in such a manner. Your an idiot.
