The answer, whispered but unmistakable: “Yeah, but she’s hot!” She has no foreign-policy experience, has barely traveled overseas. “Yeah, but she’s hot!” She gets mixed reviews from politicians in her own party in Alaska. “Yeah, but she’s hot!”
...I went to a party (all conservatives) the night of the Palin announcement. Over and over from the guys you heard, “Yeah, but she’s hot”, “She’s also very hot”, “She’s smart and hot”, “She hunts and is hot”.
Yes! I do believe that conservative men WILL vote for her partially because “she’s hot”. Women (except Feminazis) like her because of devotion to family and church. Palin is a winner.
And mainly because she's conservative, duh. Who else were they going to vote for, anyway ... Osame bin Biden?
My husband hasn't mentioned her looks at all.
Yes, for the reasons you specified, but millions of women will also vote for Palin because she's a woman. My wife has badgered me for weeks speculating on McCain's veep choice. When she found out about Palin, she became immediately more enthusiastic. And get this, my wife (unlike yours truly) is pro-choice on abortion. So the lib idea that many pro-choice women will not support Palin is built on a shaky platform. A platform of losers.
Yesterday my hubby was explaining to my son-in-law and another daughter’s fiance why Palin is fully qualified and a great choice as a running mate for McCain. He was actually doing well; mentioning her business experience, and her experience as mayor and governor and being CinC of the Alaska National Guard...I am the onery one, I had to say that it sure didn’t hurt that she was an awesome looking moose hunter. The two young men laughed; hubby was not so amused.
