What they are seeing is a woman who has a baby with down's syndrome, (I think), and a pregnant, unwed, teenage daughter. Although I don't agree with the statements I hear, most are wondering where her real commitments are, and that they should be with her family. They feel she has enough on her hands at home and shouldn't have accepted the possiblity of VP.Still just mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18111486751043606303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36379445.post-42376303526992247402008-09-02T14:05:00.000-04:002008-09-02T14:05:00.000-04:00I pretty much agree with everything you wrote:) An...I pretty much agree with everything you wrote:) And a CNN anchor was being so ridiculously bias last night that I could feel my blood pressure rising. Among other comments, she suggested that Palin was an awful mother for subjecting her pregnant teen to the scrutiny of a campaign.

We always have to be careful about what people tell pollsters after an emotional event and what they actually do on election day. By the time the election rolls around, I would be shocked if there were any substantial number of die-hard Hillary supporters that actually showed up to vote for McCain.Accidentally Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01869100744451468800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36379445.post-67213893024534590632008-09-02T13:16:00.000-04:002008-09-02T13:16:00.000-04:00I guess I'm off my rocker.

A head PUMA was on CNN saying that they want a women in office. Period. I obviously don't think that's the way to use your vote, and I do think logical people should be able to see the clear distinctions between Clinton and Palin, but there is some women out there will will vote for her only because she is a woman.<BR/><BR/>Also, you can tell that their goal is to reach Hillary Clinton voters. Listen to Palin speak the high praises of Hillary- she continually makes references to her and invites comparison. Doing so is just one more way to get the die hard, hold out Hillary voters.brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14353594558144154909noreply@blogger.com
