Point one: They're not my party. Want to see my voter registrations for the past 20 years?

Point two: The GOP may play to win (doesn't everyone?) but the Dems exceed them in vituperation and slander. Far. Exceed. Them.

>We agree. I just read that 12% of the American public still thinks Obama is Muslim. No wonder so much outrageousness is flying around. Your party (partial tip of the hat) is the one that plays to win, no holds barred.

>>I think you're both half-right. Tamar is right in that thinking women will overlook the gender of the candidate and vote principles as would thinking blacks. You're right in that there aren't that many thinking voters :-)

>>>>>McCain just eviscerated the Democratic party with his VP selection. The women are going to flock to her!!!!! I see McCain winning 350 electoral votes......
>>>>
>>>>Which women? None of the women I know. Palin is anti-abortion, for teaching creationism in schools, and sued the Federal Government because they put polar bears on the "watch" list for being endangered. I imagine that as we learn more about her, the list of issues on which she's far too conservative for many Americans will grow.

>>>>Your suggestion (and, of course, the McCain campaign's) that women will automatically vote for a woman against their own best interests is insulting.

>>>You mean like the fact that many women were going to vote for Hillary, just because she used to be a woman? Or that 98% of blacks will vote for Obama? It's called reality, deal with it.
