This whole conversation woiuld be nowhere if Obama had chosen Clinton as his running mate. Along the same line of thinking—then Palin would not be on the Republican ticket.
Now the PUMA women have someone to vote for and support, regardless of her positions on abortion and such. THis, in my opinion, was an excellent choice for McCain or whoever came up with this scheme. Since the Repubs are short on substance on “real” issues; this situation keeps the media focused on her and not on the issues trhat the American voter deserves.
None of this he said, she said, doing anything to educate the voter on issues and positions of the candidate. Confusion, misdirection and obfuscation are just what the Repubs need to make their way to the finish line.
If white middle America votes with their gut, then McCain will most likely win the election. That is why they are continuing to keep the media focused on Palin and not the issues.
