Unfortunately, I know many people who turned against McCain because they saw that Palin was not qualified and was picked as a gimmick. Spending all that money on her clothes, they knew she wasn’t qualified, they knew they were marketing her in a manipulative way. They knew she didn’t have the qualifications. I had to talk people into voting for McCain by informing them how bad Obama was. Palin didn’t help McCain at all. He would have gotten the base anyways. McCain needed to convert people, he didn’t need to sing to the choir, and he didn’t need a cheerleader who didn’t understand what she was talking about either.
If this was KOS or the DU you would have set a record for brevity while still being a hero.
Perhaps if you would hang out with more conservatives you would be less inclined to buy the DNC party line...

Please do your homework you are incorrect in your feelings about Palin.

She never did spend that money it came from the GOP and she never wore the stuff.
also if you were to watch the FoxNews report you would have known this and she has a very modest attire from a second hand shop for her cloths and shoes.

It is sad but you really are off base here and it is unbecomming of you to harbor this misguided roomers.

Sorry but McCain was handed many opportunities to win this and he refused so he was either too stupid or game playing us to use them.
Apparently you didn't see the reports of millions of GOP voters staying home because of McCain...
Incredible.
Your really need to look at reality. The Governor garnered a tremendous interest in the McCain ticket that would not have happened with the other obvious picks....including Mitt.
She drew huge crowds of enthusiastic voters.. but I must say the McCain side of the ticket was a REAL drag.
McCain has sold out conservatives too many times to gain their trust in this election. He waffled back and forth even DURING the election and did not show determination in the face of the economic melt down.
He appeared 'afraid' to debate Obama when he tried to cancel the first debate.
For the so called seasoned veteran he acted like a scared little schoolboy. His campaign made decisions that were detrimental to Palin, but she has taken the attacks "like a man" (more so than ANY man in this race took ANY attack levied at them or their family).
I voted for Mitt in the primary out of a LACK of anyone else to vote for... not because I felt he was the best we could offer for POTUS. I was surprised at the complete lack of support by those candidates who did not win the nomination and were not selected as Veep nominee for their own party's ticket. This lack of unity gave us Obama... not the selection of Governor Palin.
Your criticism of Palin is over the top and unbecoming of a conservative Republican. The very fact that you use the drive by media mis-characterizations of Governor Palin shows your utter contempt.
Anecdotal. I know quite a few who voted McCain/Palin BECAUSE Palin was on the ticket. Duh.
“Spending all that money on her clothes, they knew she wasn’t qualified, they knew they were marketing her in a manipulative way”
Spending money on clothes? You gotta be kidding me. This is why you don’t like her? Marketing her in a manipulative way? What planet do you live on, what substance are you abusing? LMAO!
