i would side with the suspending the campign boondoggle, myself....

Posted by x (aka dmuck) Nov 5 '08, 08:44

though anecdotally the funniest thing i find is that my mother--who never, ever says anything bad about anyone (she's the sort of person who could probably find some sort of good in an axe murderer) had a visceral dislike for sarah palin. she could easily have voted mccan otherwise.

I haven't confirmed but I think she turned several lean McCain votes in my family to Obama. - Mel Profit Nov 5, 08:49 1
- Depending on which exit poll is to be believed, 60-68% of people think she was unqualified. That's a lot of potential alienation. -- nm - David Nov 5, 08:52

- All kidding aside, that was a stupid mistake for McCain. -- nm - David Nov 5, 08:49
She seemed to alienate more women than she brought in. The whole vibe was "I waited 20 years for another female candidate and I got *this*?" -- nm - David Nov 5, 08:46 1
- I think when the economy tanked so dramatically, McCain was toast regardless but I wonder how a McCain-Hutchison ticket would have fared differently. -- nm - Dano Nov 5, 08:49
My mom hated Palin, too. And she usually likes pretty people. -- nm - Callisto Nov 5, 08:45 2
- I didn't "hate" her, but she really comes off fake. It's like she's a grownup "mean girl". - Trish Nov 5, 08:51
- My mom would've have voted for McCain if not for Palin. -- nm - Dano Nov 5, 08:46
