I know absolutely nothing about Sarah Palin, so I’ll reserve my comments about her political stances and what she brings to the ticket for a later time. But, it’s worth noting that multiple people in my office think John McCain picked Palin to be his VP in an attempt to woo Hillary supporters.
As my boss so elequantly put it, “McCain must think women are stupid.” Are women really going to vote for McCain now just because he has a woman on the ticket? Hillary supporters — who now will vote for McCain/Palin just to get a woman into the White House — apparently answered “yes” when Hillary asked if they were in the campaign just for her. Certainly they weren’t in it for the issues she believes in.
