Ferraro just interviewed by phone. Predicted that as many as 1/3 of Hillary voters will switch to vote for McCain because Palin is his running mate. Indicates that millions of women feel Hillary was "left out to dry," never considered for Obama's VP. Says anger at Obama not assuaged by DNC Convention platitudes...
Do you have any links? hillaryclinton.com doesn’t have a search feature and no forum link is visible on the page.
Media saying she’s a Bush/Cheney supporter....duhhhhh
After Obummer called her a Racist, who do you think she’s voting for??

LOL... Hillary supporters know that 2012 looks better with McCain in 2008!
Media talking heads on MSNBC and CNN have already started to talk Palin down.
They didn’t listen when the Hillary Pantsuit Brigade complained about the media dissing Hillary and fawning over Obama.
If the media persists in this attitude (and they will) they will drive more and more disgruntled Hillary supporters to Sarah each time they appear to show disrespect.
Many longtime democrat females who have worked their way up in the party might not risk their liberal creds by speaking openly about splitting the ticket.
But when they get in the voting booth and close the curtain many will vote for Palin.
If we go state-by-state...I think McCain gained a 20-percent win in fifteen states now, with this announcement. I’ll even make an educated guess that he gained another five to eight percent in the second group of fifteen states. By a national vote...Obama can’t come close at this point. So it’ll be curious how badly the election goes from this point on for the Democrats.
Never ever underestimate the memory-span of the Clintons. If they, for one moment, think Barack is a potential two-term-candidate, they are going to work very quietly behind the scenes to push their voters to McCain and set up a bona fide Clinton/Palin showdown in 2012.
Seriously. McCain is going to win, and the Clintons are going to help him do it.
Obummer was Selected Not Elected and then Dissed her at the Convention. Great Pick-up Mav.

So which term do you hear most, Cradle Robber, Pedophile, or Pervert?
I've been reading their comments for the past hour or so...THEY DON'T CARE!!
...oh, the irony of it all.
I predict that every woman in the USA in her right mind will vote for John McCain.
Lady Palin is rather the statement of a lifetime for women.
She will admired around the globe.
Well, it’s moot now, as the forum moderator over at Hillaryclinton.com is now allowing only registered users to enter. But, trust me, most of the posters over there were even more enthusiastic about the pick than Freepers. Their reactions were amazing. Lots of the posters were talking about crying tears of joy!
“Having Palin on the ticket is likely to make some of them who would have voted for McCain stay home altogether.”
Ridiculous. Anyone who “would have voted for McCain” already could only have been turned off by a pro-choice or donk pick. This won’t lose one of those voters. It will, however, help draw the pro-life crowd, the conservative base, the “Hillary supporters for McCain” crowd, the “we need a Washington outsider” crowd, the corruption fighter crowd (in her short tenure as Alaska’s Governor, Palin really cleaned house), etc.
its OK, we’ll take their money, Its green like everyone else’s
AOL commie news is running polls asking who are the rising stars among Democrats. What a bunch of zombies.
Thanks, that makes sense.
Geraldine Ferraro predicts many Hillary supporters will vote for PalinMaybe yes, maybe no.... Predicted that as many as 1/3 of Hillary voters will switch to vote for McCain because Palin is his running mate. Indicates that millions of women feel Hillary was "left out to dry," never considered for Obama's VP.
Let's not forget that your typical Dem *female*, let alone Hillary supporter, looks more like a Bag Woman or 'Jake The Plumber' than Gov Sarah Palin -- who just happens to be Babe-A-Licious hot. As such, Hill's Pants Suit Brigade may be turned off, or out right angry with Green Eyed Jealousy over Gov Palin's looks.
Then again, Gov Palin may pick up some single Male Dem voters. Those that aren't flaming gay anyway -- all five of 'em.
