CNN

I look at America in disbelief for wanting to elect the same folks that has almost brought the world's greatest economy to its knees. Over What? Gender, race or pure hatred. I think America will look back to this mistake for a long time if they make it. From my perspective, the Democrats have the far better ticket. Can't even compare...

I rather vote for a brain not lipstick!! Both Palin and McCain make me sick,
Palin is an extremist and McCain is a liar.

I can see George Bush laughing his way out of the White House now...."we pulled the wool over their eyes once again" hahahaha Good work McCain!!

LOL, way to go my liberal CNN. See that you are only posting liberal's comment. With time you be left out in the cold with the other liberal stations.

GO FOX!!!

Go McCain $ Palin !!!

mmmm wonder if CNN going to post this comment???? LOL

It's laughable that republican's are insinuating that Obama called sarah palin a pig I think what he meant to say was she's a fraud and a liar and you cant dress her up to be anything but what she is. By the way were republicans offended when she called herself a pit bull in lipstick?

To Go Obama! – it is the white people of this country who has Obama where he is today. So please don't EVEN talk about white bigotry! Is we were bigots, he would not have won the primaries.

When do we get a chance to hear her talk? On her own. Why so secretive? Oh, wait, she's a Republican.

I am a retired white woman , and I support Obama . I like McCain more before he picked Palin than now , because it seemed to me pandering to women as if we are not smart enough to see the difference in a qualified women and an unexperienced one, More is coming out about her that is certainly troubling to me. To think she is a heart beat away from being President ,McCain did not put 'Country First! with his choice. Just looking at his own ambitons and betting that many women would jump on his bandwagon. Looks like many have , Maybe they will start sorting through the untrue statements this "Christian " women is continuing to make,

My, how many angry comments. The only democrat defense is that McCain/Pail is the clone of Bush/Cheney. I'm bored with that strategy, surprise us with something new. Just please be mature.

Community outreach is a great start and should not be littled, but it is by no means qualification for the office of President of USA. I appreciate the idealism of Barack's speeches but where is the foundation of action that I can reliably say he will champion America and not special groups? This political race is about America and how best to serve her. Sen Obama touts the democratic line but what America needs is compromise and a willingness to cross party lines; he is a liberal democrat. Likewise, the current republican base is too conservative and has not worked for the past eight years. Too much space separates the two. How best to span that gap...?
We need someone who will fight for America, not more divisiveness. I see little to commend either candidate so bring on the debates!!!!

Please my American neighbours to the South...please do not get caught up in the wolf in sheep's clothing...the McCain/Palin ticket would be a nightmare...and a step backwards...and from our perspective...more of the same negativity!

Mark from Englad – who cares what you think?

McCain/Palin 2008!

What an insult ... American women deserve better.

THIS Democratic woman will vote for McCain/Palin. Country first, party second. The Dems foolishly nominated the wrong candidate(s). Obama is unqualified to be President and is unelectable. The DNC must be held accountable for the 2008 campaign very undemocratic debacle. This was supposed to our year. Way to blow it Dems. Hillary should be the nominee, Hillary's qualified and could have won this election in a walk. It's McCain 08 and Hillary 2012.

These white women, who are voting for McCain, their first excuse was they didn't know much about Obama, now they know nothing about about Palin, except she is a white women, how sad, and pathetic, which tells me they were not going to vote for Obama anyway, so being the pathetic racist cowards that they are, instead of being truthful about their feelings, they find any excuse(Palin) knowing full well she doesn't have a clue.

A news station interviewed women who are simply over the moon about Palin. When asked where Palin stood on issues all responses were "I don't know. I just like her." These are the same idiots who paid no attention to Bush and look where we're at. This is disgusting! To the cell phone nation...PLEASE VOTE! Many of your elders lost freaking minds!

How long before we learn she never shot a moose?

Palin is extreme and brings nothing to the ticket. A few months ago she had no desire to be VP, unless there was something in it for Alaska(??!), and now McCain wants to put her in the position of being a heartbeat away from the Presidency. McCain is reckless to choose her.

No, I disagree with the whole premise that she's attracting white women. Once people become well informed about Palin, they'll steer clear of the McCain-Palin ticket.

The recent "polls" of this election seem to show that there are large group of people living in the south and midwest that want religion and politics to mingle, care nothing about our image in the rest of the world, and are simply not listening to Barack Obama. That, or they're too attached to their party to see the wood through the trees. The intelligent voters out there knew long ago who the better candidaite in this election is...

Obama/Biden 08

I got less per diem for going to Iraq for over a year than she got. This is a shame.

There is a reprive from the nightmarish economy, thanks to the checks this summer. Those checks are now again, and for the next eight weeks Americans will increasingly experience the worst economy they have ever been through, save those of us who were around during the great deprssion. This will ussure in a concern for issues that will replace the superficial vote.

Mothers who vote for Sarah Palin will be voting against their own children's best interests. Most will come to understand that, those who don't were going to vote GOP anyway, the same way they did in '04 – gee thanks.

Of course it does! I've never been more proud to be a woman than I am now! I could now look at my daughter and tell her that she can be anything she wants in this country.

Palin 2008!

I feel sick to think that the culture wars are taking presidence over the deeper issue of today. Our country is greater than that, it has been a long struggle to understan each other and work for the better good for us all at home and abroad.

The focus should be on education, economy, energy independence,
takeing care of our men and women injured on the battle fields, taking care of the planet the infrastructure in our towns and cities and jobs jobs jobs.

Let's change the conversation and consider this country which we love an in whick we live. Our children and grand children well being is at stake.

It's one thing to call someone inexperience and a liar but Palin seems to have both qualities. Say what you want about how you think the democratic party treated Hillary but Palin is no Hillary. Check Hillary's resume and then check Palins. Try a book (Hillary) to a sentence (Palin)

WOMEN,
STAND UP FOR YOUR INDEPENDENT. LET AMERICA KNOW WE ARE CAPABLE OF MAKING GOOD DECISIONS AFTER LISTENING TO THE CANDIDATE. AND TELL MCCAIN, ANY WOMAN WILL NOT DO.
NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MCCAIN , NO PALIN!

Hey. I'm 62 and I made my first ever campaign contribution to a political candidate online today. Only $200 but it will be worth it to kick out the Republicans who have made a mess out of the economy.

Republicans like to talk about fiscal conservatism...they just don't practice it.

Clinton left office with a huge budget surplus. The Republicans wasted every dime of it and wound up putting this country billions of dollars in the hole

OBAMA for president!!!!!

I agree with you that it is getting too much talking about palin by the news people. I'm getting to the point of not wanting to turn on my tv anymore although I want to hear other things. America is in need badly and desperately a person who can lift America up again and that means America should look squarely at the support of the candidate from the international level not just American vote because that's how the president is going to get involve with other nations. Regarding Sarah Palin, to my opinion she is absolutely qualified and respected as a governor but she is not ready yet for vice president. I think one of the problem is also she has already carrying a lot of problem with her and behind her from her family issues to her job ethics and to her faith and so forth. Trust me this job is nothing like you go to one building to work everyday with same people. It has a huge task to carry here at home and abroad. So I hope America will not make mistake. I guess its just her persona that attracted many American who doesn't really care about issues.

My, it is SOOO interesting to read all the liberal bloggers babble. You are the ones who are out of touch and, pardon me, but your insecurities are showing. Go Sarah!

We have a President that thinks God speaks to him and now we have a canidate that thinks that God wants the war in Iraq.Look where Bush has taken us and just think of the increased mess we will be in if she is anywhere in the White House.We would have more of the same and I really don't see how we could survive as a nation.
Any one that supported Clinton would not support this woman..her views are not even close to trhe platform that Hillary brought to the table.No one mentions the Keating 5...Mc Cain was my Senator and walked away from that mess...he had ample time in the Congress to help enact all the tings he advocates now..he is a good old boy and you certainly don't change your votes and views at 72.No way no how...No Mc cain and the gun and oil advocating hot mama..Never

Only stupid ones.

Yeah....but only the ones that live in trailers and are afraid of anyone with a brain !!!!!!!!!!!

So this begs the question......what are white women afraid of???
One look into the future with McCain/Palin at the helm frightens the heck out of me. Hands down, the intelligent vote is on Obama/Biden...is that what scares white women??? Smarts?

I was happy to see most of the comments on this issue. It pains me that fellow Americans do not see how the Republican machinery is using gimmicks to get attention and from how things stands now, it seems as though they will succeed.

How is not clear that John Mc Cain chose this woman just to win the election and not in the best interest of the nation as he often claims? We have lost so much respect from people around the world where people who used to look at us in admiration, now look at us with contempt and disgust as the Republican government continue to show how arrogant they are....... What happened in Berlin is just a window into how people will begin to see us once again when ( and I mean when and not if) Barack Obama becomes president.

I'm still watching.............

It's so funny to see all you liberals on here crying and begging Americans to "stop being so stupid" by voting republican. When are you going to realize that you are WRONG!!! Americans love freedom and liberty which is why they continue to refuse your liberal agendas. Sooner or later you will whiners will catch on.

What if this woman becomes President? Quite possible, given McCain's age. Can you imagine her Supreme Court nominees? Women's gains will be set back 100 years. This is not change; this is not progression, it is regression. Wake up, America!

How about some coverage on McCains dirty ads and Obama's gloves off response!? Stem cells and child molestation protection, pretty important topics!!

You so called Hillary supporters that say you will support
Mccain are so transparent.
You are a republican, doing what the republicans do: LIE!!

Biggest problem of America is Economy, unemployment, wrong war, high cost of healthcare, i lost my job almost 7 months ago. me & my family living without medical insurance suffering from stress anxiety / hypertension with 2 kids.

will palin / mc cains values do they bring me a job.............

I am so very depressed.

my family is hungry, how sad it is.

Does John McCain suffer from post traumatic syndrome? Why did S. Palin attend so many colleges? Scares me to death that an angry old soldier and an ex-beauty queen,hockey, pit bull, fighter wants to lead the country. America needs THINKERS, to think America out the mess all that experience has led us. Like many people, I do not like hockey and I am an American-not a Georgian. I do wish the Georgians good luck.

And you know what the past part of Palin is? She does not wear pant suits everyday. Not like liar liar pant suit on fire Hillary.

Palin 2012

Why would anyone with a brain vote for more government regulation, higher taxes, and income redistribution? I guess you all believe there really is a free lunch. Pitiful.

65 – white – single – 47 year career.

She won't ever get my vote. My ex married a woman like her and he and his entire family imploded from all the crap.

I believe in rights for everyone – not dictatorship by a narcisistic female.

No Way Now How No McCain No Palin.

ha ha ha ha ha

I hope CNN post this one:

I have one suggestion for all Obama voters. If you really think that JOHN MCCAIN and SARA PALIN are Liers, then please roll up your sleeves and go to the rural areas of your States and Cities and communities, and explain door to door HOW REPUBLICANS specially JUINOR CHEYNEY, PALIN, is fooling RURAL AMERICA, and tell them THE REAL TRUTH AND NEWS.

The problem with America is that not everyone specially in the Rural Areas watch CNN or news channels, they just see the ads on their local channel or go to local events. AND if someone like Palin lies to them in those local events, they think it's truth.

THAT's HOW REPUBLICAN WON the past two elections:

LIE to AMERICA, DIVIDE THEM and CONQUER

To: John Smith September 9th, 2008 6:50 pm ET

"Just imagine, as an American, waking up after election day to KNOW that McCain-Palin are your new leaders for the next 4-8 years:"

Image Obama/Biden winning! A lot people will sleep a whole lot better knowing that McPailn has defeated a man with the thinnest resume of any presidential candidate ever (EVER!), and he will have no chance to implement his socialist policies on this great country, and tax the hell out of the people to pay for his plans! Why doesn't he just move to Europe? They love him, because he is like them!

Mr. Obama,

I believe you to be a decent and honorable man, who would make an exceptional president. Unfortunately I sense that your inate sense of fair play badly under-estimates to what depths the Republicans will sink to win. They govern very badly, but they're very good at winning elections. Please, please, please!!! For the sake of our country and the world that our children will be born into, fight these people with every tool at your disposal. Otherwise, they wil steal, lie, cheat and do anything they can to retain power. It's they only thing they're really good at.

I heard that Obama said that you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. Seems to be a slanted reference to Palin's remark about the hockey mom compared to a pit bull she made during the convention.

Palin was saying that hockey moms are not pushovers, they can be tough. I think Obama was calling her and hockey moms pigs, even if they wear lipstick to disguise it. That's how i see it.
Sarah Palin is no pig. She's much much cuter than Michelle. She seems warmer and nicer and happy.

There are a lot of people right now that is in Alaska trying to find dirt on her. No success so far. She has to learn to go on with the business ahead and ignore the hostility. she has to realize that nothing can be worse than Wright.

Dud.

Obama 08!

Obama,
I thought you were above personal attacks. Why the personal slam on Palin? "A pig with lipstick is still a pig?" Is this the higher road you keep talking about? I saddened by the personal attacks you promised to steer clear of. It is easy to take the high road when you are ahead in the polls. It is a lot tougher when you are behind. Show us why we should believe in you. Stop the personal attacks.

I don"t care about these polls my vote is with Obama. The American voters get what they deserve if they don't elect Obama. Why would a Nation such as our care so little about the struggles of its citizens.

Yes, Palin definitely influenced me....NEVER in a million years would I vote for McCain/Palin....they are the bridge to nowhere! This woman is an insult to all American women.

@ tell it like it is

blacks usually always vote dem

If women are stupid enough to for for Palin based only on her gender, and ignore the fact they are voting against their own self interest, then they deserve what they get.

For those women considering McCain/ Palin, consider the following, your personal right choice, educational opportunities and health care for your children, equal pay for equal work, a stable economy and housing market, and a safer world. I promise you, if you take the time to educate yourself on these issues, instead of letting the Republican's spoon feed you lies and propaganda, you'll have to admit to yourself Obama/Biden is the a feminist's choice.

And as for you Hillary supporters considering Palin, you only need listen to what the woman is saying, NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MCCAIN/PALIN!

NO WAY – NO HOW – NOBAMA

Sarah Palin Runs A State. Barack Obama Runs His Mouth.

Im very happy Obama will be president and that Biden will be vice president, Obama/Biden were owesome today on campaign trail.

When women learn more about Sarah Palin her support among that group will shrink. Is it any wonder that her support is growing, especially considering that the public knows next to nothing about her and she still has yet to give a substantive interview or talk without a script and teleprompter?

The media needs to be doing its job – we only have 57 days to get to know enough about her to decide if she is ready to be VP, or President, and the only interview she has done so far is with People Magazine! Can you imagine if this was the Democratic VP nominee? The conservatives would be going crazy.

IF YOU ARE NOT OUTRAGED, YOU ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

PS just because someone does not vote for obama or because the news reports what is going on for both sides, dont call them racist. I care nothing for race but I will NEVER vote for obama because I have studied what he stands for and frankly, that scares me.

I just have 1 question . when will gov palin give an unscripted interview so we can hear her where she stands on different issues ?

Thank you Rove for picking a real woman to be the first female president in our country. Now please tell the pumas to go home because they are no longer needed. Check out the polls. No more kissing up to Hillary supporters. Thank God

White male from Ohio.

I'm a McCain supporter, and this is great and all, but this is really not the most important news. Are you going to post one about spanish women or black women, or evangelicals, or mormons, or catholics. I mean, this really isn't news CNN. Earlier this year, I was anti- Fox News because of how much they loved Romney. Now that Romney is gone, Fox News has actually reported good news on their website. Check it out. It actually has important stuff. I mean when you go to cnn.com, the main headline is about lance armstrong coming out of retirement. That is great, but to put it as the top story is not cool.

I am so sick of all this Palen nonsense. ENOUGH is ENOUGH! She is not qualified to lead this country by any stretch of the imagination and McCain apparently isn't either having showed us that good judgement isn't one of his strong points.
So, can we talk about the REAL ISSUES facing this country?

Your coverage, I mean

IF SHE IS GAINIMG SUPPORT FOR WOMEN VOTERS THEN THE ONES THAT ARE VOTING BECAUSE OF HER ARE NOTHING BUT SEXIST.

"You can put lipstick on a pig and it is still a pig" Comments made today by Obama. What a jerk.

McCain/Palin '08

I guess woman are not as stupid as the media and republicans would like to think we are

John McCain opposed a bill earlier this year that would have advanced ...

EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL WORK

... to women.

I can't cite the bill but there was a news story about it because McCain said he didn't want to give women the right to take employers to court over this type of discrimination. Hopefully someone out there in the blogsphere has those minute details to tie this all together.

Ms. Palin, as McCain's VP, will be toeing this public line .... she will have to back John up on this. Unfortunately, he probably doesn't have to twist her arm to do so.

What woman, in her right mind, would sell out her sisters like this?

What woman voter, knowing these facts, would yell, cheer, support, back McCain through Palin?

You couldn't make this stuff up if you tried.

I just saw Obama say...
"YOU CAN PUT LIPSTICK ON A PIG, IT'S STILL A PIG."

Did Obama just call Sarah Palin a PIG???????????

Where the heck is the media outrage for this?

Sarah Palin does not have my family values. I would never parade a pregnant 17 year old unmarried daughter and her boyfriend on stage like a proud parent. Hypocritical evangelical.

I was a big McCain fan in 2000. Not any more!!

Both tickets stink!!! America is in deep trouble no matter who gets elected. Neither party will fix our problems. Can I vote for "none of the above" or the FBI be pounding on my door?

For some reason Cnn doesn't print my responses anymore. WHY?

It's oh so sad if this is based strictly on gender. McCain may be a sorrier candidate than even Bush, at least Bush had some 'charisma'. McCain is stupid, a lousy speaker, and wrong on most issues – and definitely a maverick. An Ms. Palin is nothing more than a would-be theocrat, who believes that her and her 'mission' derives from the Almighty. Sounds like a rerun. If America falls for this again, they deserve the horror of the next 4 (or more) years....

I don't know what any Obama supporters look like on the outside, but after what I've heard from them today, I know what they are on the inside.

Ugly.

Hello America:

Lets make this perfectly clear. These so called Republicans are bad people. They are not true conservative republicans of the party that I have come to respect and admire. Presidents Ike, TR, Nixon, Regan would be ashamed of these people. The party is being taken over by extremist and now creationist! My God what has happened to the good old GOP!

I guess CNN really don't care about freedom of speech that is why they only post what they feel are in their best interest. Or in the intrest of their candiate! This in not a repeat comment!

This white woman is neither impressed nor influenced.
OBAMA/BIDEN ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE!! YES WE CAN!!

Big surprise. Here's one white woman who is voting for Obama! There's more of us out here than the media and McCain/Palin think!

Hey CNN why all the bias against the Democrats? You're suppose to be best polictical analyst are so pro Mcaine / palin!

I was so sick of kissing up to Hillary supporters these past few months now that is over. We don't need you or your witch candidate to win this election. You lost. We have God on our side we don't need the pumas anymore.

Palin 2012

This Novembers vote will show one thing. Woman should go back to being barefoot and pregnant. Sad that woman are only jumping on the McCain ticket because he has a woman as his VP.

Honestly ask yourselves, are you choosing McCain due to their issues or because Palin has a vagina?

Not for long. The REAL Sarah Palin is hiding behind McCain right now...why can't she speak freely to the press?

What's saddest and most disappointing is that he picked this woman, with full knowledge that she is by and large UNQUALIFIED to lead this country, and in utter disregard for the well-being of the American people, just so that he could garner more of the female vote. So very sad, if he wanted home health care or someone to take care of him like a mommy would, there are services that could have helped the old man out. Sarah has enough kids to take care of.

I'm a white woman for sane, educated people. Not for wrong-wing extremists.

It;s scary if McCain and Palin wins! not only we are going to go on War but our economy is going to be the same BS and Palin is going to be wasting the money away on trips for his kids!

Obama

WOMEN BEWARE:

McCain has voted AGAINST ALL woment's rights and issues.
McCain/Paling want to take away a woman's right to choose.
They don't believe in equal pay for equal work .
THEY WILL SET WOMEN BACK! Palin is not Hillary!
Look at the issues and don't fall for this gimmick!

Obama has supported and voted FOR ALL women's rights and issues!

I may be in denial but I just cannot believe that women, particularly WHITE women are that vacuous to the McCain/Palin smokescreen. Bush Lite is using you!!!! Why else did he pick "Moose Raider" over Joe Liberman who he truly wanted.

Are you that bitter that Hillary didn't get the nod that you'd put your own country at risk with these two just for spite? She's not Hillary!

It just reluctantly makes me think that this all stems down to RACE. Quite sad.

I cannot believe that John Mccain thinks that American females are so easy to manipulate. He may have done a little personal manipulating in his time, but what makes him think that woman will sell their souls to the Republican party and suffer another four years under McBush and Gerorgette Palin? I really don't think that his bag of tricks will work .

Those women supporting the McCain/Palin ticket must really be listening to ads rather than doing their own research. I cannot believe any woman would vote for Palin just to see a woman as president....I am a woman and it is scary to think that someone like Palin could be commander in chief should something happen to McCain. I am hoping for the best this november, but I am realistic and understand that Americans vote in a not-so-intelligent way, after all: Bush was elected twice, so what does that say about people's ability to cast an intelligent vote? Please use your brain and send a loud message to republicans, let's make sure the democrats get elected in November, so that this country can get back on track.

Not THIS white woman. Palin is like Cheney incarnate. Who is the devil's spawn, by the way....

She's sure as heck not influencing THIS white woman! Her positions are against practically every freedom we have in this country. She wants government to control everything we can and cannot do!

The Palin craze with women shows the mentality of today's women. The "any woman will do, just get a woman in the white house" mentality will destroy this country. Maybe women should go back to not voting like the good old days.

CNN: Your caption under the photo:

More white women support McCain-Palin than Obama-Biden.

How do you know this? You didn't ask me and I'm a white woman. Don't exaggerate the truth here. Maybe you did a poll or asked 100 white women and 51 said they'd support McCain-Palin. The truth is exaggerated here and it's disgusting! Be responsible journalists or don't you know what that means anymore???????????????

ACTUALLY, if i was a woman, Iwould vote for Palin.

Why not? Blacks are predominantly voting DEM because of Obama.
What's the difference?

BUT, since I am a man; I'll vote for a man, McCain

what do you expect ,this election is not about issues but personality .American wake up!!!.BEWARE OF THE RAORING LION SEEKING WHO TO DEVOUR.Bush played hide and seek games with us now Mcsame when will this country learn. I am a white woman,the economy and everything that is happening is hurting thecountry.4more years ?NO MCSAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Palin's credentials are so fraudulent. Why else are the Republicans not trusting her to be out on her own in this campaign, and restricting her spoken words to be just repeats of her convention script? What are they afraid of? Whatever it is, the American people should be afraid of it too.

There is no way I'd support the McCain/Palin ticket - especially given the probabilty that the VP in a McCain administration would likely eventually become president.

1. He had a father and grandfather get him to his rank in the military. (He was too dumb to do it himself);
2. He lured/lied and married a rich woman; (He is an adulterer)
3. He was a POW. (Did you know that?);
4. He hangs out with lobbyists who protect him. (More like the mofia);
5. He has the endorsement of G. Bush; (most of us would not want it); and
6. He has many rich friends supporting him. (He thinks only of the rich-which will be his downfall).

Guess what McCain – THESE ARE THE REASONS YOU WON'T WIN. Americans are too smart for you and your female.

This father/daughter team makes G. W. look good.

Go Obama/Biden!

Here is what it is: white guys ashamed of not wanting to vote for a black guy who carried their interests at heart used to tell pollsters they'd vote Obama (even though they wouldn't have). Now they vote for McCain, for whom they would have voted anyway, but they feel more comfortable saying so because they're also voting for a woman, thus proving to themselves that they're not neanderthals.

I thought that us women were suppose to be smart

Why would any woman in her right mind vote for a man that only threw a woman on his ticket to attract woman?

Do you think he chose her becaue of her views, personality, intellect?

He spoke with the woman one time before picking her she wants to take away our rights she hasnt even spoken to the media and you will vote for just because she's a woman?

CNN how about for the rest of this election you concentrate only on the issues and get all the candidates to state their positions on those issues and stop the hype-reporting.

Be the free press we need now more then ever.

Just think how you could help this country by reporting on the issues and let the other news outlets do the hype-reporting. Believe me we would appreciate this.

This election is too important to be decided on personalities.

PALIN IS NOT INFLUENCING THIS WHITE WOMAN. I CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH HER AND AS I CAN SEE THROUGH MCCAIN ESPECIALLY
WHEN HE TOLD THAT BIG WHOPPER OF THE CHRISTMAS STORY. I HAD ALREADY SEEN THAT SCENE IN A MOVE IN 1959.

I can NOT believe people are willing to go through another republican term in the White House. These polls must not be accurate.
I can tell you this, if the gop ticket is successful- I for one will officially give up on the people of this country.
You were fooled twice- GET A CLUE!!!!!!!

Anyone who can still listen to obama after 16 months and still believe the crap that comes out of that man's mouth is a fool.

Any woman with brains has already figured this one out!
PALIN IS AN IDIOT with too much lipstick.

OHIO votes for whites? Over security (or any chance of hope) for you and your children!

Obama Biden 2008

Sorry Obama!!!! & DNC
That is what you get for not putting Hillary on the VP ticket
The voters spoke and you did nothing, so who do you have
to blame? yourself and the DNC

I say no and to all the white women that I have spoken with say the same. Palin is not for womens rights.

Who cares???? Go ahead and vote Republican.........

"fool me once.......shame on.........you............you fool me you can't get fooled again!" -George "the mental midget" Bush

I wonder what fool me three times is??

Let's make history America! Let's show the other nations how pathetic and stupid we are! Vote for the SAME PARTY that got you into this mess.

Then, when you go on vacation (discount style because of our economy) to Europe, you can introduce yourself as an American and park in all of the Handicapped spots and wear a frickin helmet! Because you're SPECIAL!!

if mccain can bearly hold his lead how is he going to hold the country americas you have to start thinking about whos really in charge here

Sarah Palin claims to be a born again Christian, but sems to have no qualms about lying in her repetitive speeches. Wonder how she justifies that? The Bible considers lying a sin. Proves to me that she is not who she says she is and is willing to say or do anything to get her and McCain elected. Well, this Christian white woman is voting for Obama.

Oops, left out a word in my previous comment. It should have read: Certainly not any that HAVE a brain in their head. She sure doesn't.

Guess what? I'm voting for Obama.

Why are you Americans so OBSESSED with race??? CNN this has got to be a new low for YOU!!!!!!!

Why can't you guy's post someting like, Is PALIN helping you stay in your homes????!!! Is Palin going to provide you with health care???? Does Palin know ANYTHING about foreign policy???? DOES PALIN KNOW ANYTHING???!!!!

Seems like the media is trying to create some type of race war......how extremley discouraging...i suggest you stick to what matters....you are all Americans...perhaps you should try and act like CIVIL HUMAN BEINGS and try and move your country FORWARD TOGETHER.

CNN PLEASE don't push your's or the repubs agenda in this election cycle...it just means WAY to much to America and to the WORLD!!!

DON'T be COWARDS CNN POST THIS!!!!!!

That women does not represent this white, middle aged women.
NO WAY, NO HOW will I be pandered too!!!!!! I'm not gullible.
OBAMA/BIDEN08

I believe all women (and probably men too) have some sort of basic instinct of being "precious". They will respect someone who can be "precious" because to be such a thing is not easy. Too many temptations to become "precious".

Palin somewhat has proved herself to be a "precious" woman if not perfect. Deep in every people's heart, they respect more true evangelical Christian women than the liberal ones. Because they know in these modern days it's hard to find a true purely heart woman. And they find them mostly in Christian evangelicals.

On the other it's very easy to find the liberal women.

Gov. Palin is not only smart, good-looking but also due to her deep Christian faith, she is somewhat much more "precious" especially if compared with liberal women.

Because of this, I think not only white women, but also white men, black women, black men and everyone who see that "precious thing" is invaluable. Much more precious than gold, much more precious than silver.

Looks like McCain is going to prove that 88 years ago with white men didn't want their women to vote because they didn't think they could logically and intelligently use their vote....they were right

AMERICA RESPECTS JOHN McCAIN

AMERICA LOVES SARAH PALIN

Truth, integrity and experience will win. America to is too smart to settle for less than McCain and Palin.

Please, no more. Can't we have more than 50% normal people? Is our education so bad that we are doomed now to elect only morons?

McCain = Bush + Bad Temper
Palin = Bush + Lipstick + Even more extremism

Obama/Biden 2008

I'm a white female, voted for Hillary Clinton in the primary and I can say with the utmost certainty that she is influencing me to vote for Obama and Biden!

Hillary Supporters:

Are you really angry enough to give the country to a man who would pick Sarah Palin? If you are vote for him, but don't come crying to us when the country implodes.

Obama/Biden 08

We do not "owe" John McCain entree into the White House because he was tortured as a POW.

We do not "owe" Sarah Palin a free ride to "Number One Observatory Circle" .... the Vice Presidential residence because she is a woman that decided not to have an abortion.

Ms Palin's election would place a heavy weight on future women qualifed for the Presidency. Sarah will not be viewed as credible in the 2nd in command role and this will impact a generation of voters for the forseeable future. It may not be fair, but she will take women backwards I'd say about 16 years.

I can't follow McCain nor his "political pick" for VP

I am a white woman who is disappointed in the judgement of American women- if we are going to vote for Palin because she is a woman we are throwing away everything that Hilary and all other women have worked for. Feminism is about choice- shoot guns and head back to the office the day after you give birth? Fine. Can afford to be a stay at home mom? Fine. The McCain Palin ticket is about restricting rights, and as we have seen changing the game and the moral high ground to suit them. If all of these women are so easily swayed, maybe we don't want a woman in the white house after all?
The election of THIS woman will ruin any chances Hilary has in the next election or two. Once the McCain Palin ticket royally screws us- and they will- people will say – we gave a woman a chance and look. . .

I am a close to 60 white woman in rural Maryland. I was just called for the first time in my life for a poll - the Rasmussen Poll. The next poll of polls that comes out darn sure better show that at least one person said they "strongly disagree" with the statement about Palin leading this country!

I believe that Obama is truthful and has picked an honest man to campaign with him. I trust them both to work for us. McPain and McPain are racists. Are only for the power and themselves. Wake up women and make good choices, Palin is not a good choice. I am a woman and I am not voting for McCain & McPalin.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

I have been skeptical that Palin has done much beyond excite those already planning on voting for McCain. If women were stupid enough to decide purely on gender, wouldn't Ferrarro and Mondale won back in 1984?

Oh jeez! It's rather ignorant of an individual to elect another person based on preference of the same-sex. What ever happened to electing someone whose going to take the initiative in solving the problems that the American people are facing? Electing McCain/Palin will not solve the housing problems, economy, war on Iraq,and healthcare just to name a few. Wake up people! There are bigger issues at hand than wanting to elect a woman in office.

Certainly not any that a brain in their head.

Not this one....Her family life reads like a good soap opera. More and more is coming out about Miss Alaska.....wonder what new drama we'll hear tomarrow?

I am white, 63, woman, retired who would like to keep my Social
Security Check and I do care about our Country. Do these women
have their scruples.? And, are we stupid?????

Obama Biden 2008 from Day 1.

I know many white women who are not for McCain/Palin. Palin is the talk around the office and I work for a large financial company with about 800 employees in the building. We as women, are horrified that John McCain that cries Country First , and a heartbeat away from leaving here, would jeopardize our lives and pick a unqualified woman as VP.

We have no respect for a woman who has 5 children and a daughter who is having a child to put her career before raising her kids. Good mothers raise their children, and not nannies. This is probably the reason why her oldest daughter got pregnant. Palin was never home.

Some women want it all, but with that choice comes downfalls. I have raised 5 grown children myself , and I don't care what women rights groups say, your children need you as a parent to be there for them. Not in the white house. Many women I know feel, "You will know them by the fruit they bare. This is my opinion and some other women I know.

I am a white woman who will NOT vote for McCain/Palin. McCain was a desperate man having chosen Palin as his running mate. He knew his ship was sinking and had no other choice. She is a fraud. Women beware! Don't let this Annie Oakley sway you. If these two are elected, it will be the end of the world as we know it.

Don't insult this woman. I know next to nothing about whats her name. In fact, all that I know for certain, is she's white, she's a woman and she is the Gov. of Alaska. This may be acceptable to some weak minded women, but not me.

I don't know what her qualifications to be VP or President are. Would she be able to step into John McCains shoes if something should happen to him? That question has not been answered to my satisfactions.

These white women behind the fence? Are they old or just really
stupid? Do they have kids. They are going to hand this government
over to McCain Palin Bush Cheney.
Palin was selected by Karl Rove!!!!

With comments like "you can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig", Obama is sure to lose even more women to McCain/Palin. And a donkey is still a donkey, right Obama? And you can put an insolent, sarcastic child in a suit but he's still a child.

Way to make it about race and sex in one shot. Thanks CNN, but no thanks! If anything, Palin is turning stomachs across America!

I don't know what's what anymore with this race...

Like the 2004 race, all I can do is support who I want to win and the rest is out of our hands.

If Americans are silly enough to put another set of Republicans in office, well then they get what they deserve....

Just like they thought another 4 years of Bush was a good idea...and then they turned around and complained about how bad a president he is.... once you cast that vote, it's too late to complain. We ALL just have to deal with the consequences.

That's why this whole discussion about "experience" is moot... Some times just having BRAINS goes a looonngg way. People just aren't being smart.

Ignorant people, supporting dimwitted candidates for the wrong reasons...then act shocked when things go wrong.... Good luck.

I know pollsters like to analyze voters' gender and ethnicities to explain elections. So President Bush carried 55 percent of the white women vote in 2004 — a key reason he won his bid for a second term!

But TWO TERMS of Bush/Cheney is enough! I still can't think of a single important issue on which McCain – and especially Palin – differ from Bush/Cheney, except personalities. Can anybody name one!

Let's resurrect the GOP's1940 election slogan: NO THIRD TERM!

Franklin D. Roosevelt complelty deserved a 3rd term, but not Bush/McCain!

Can we draft a petition to have George Bush move to Saudi Arabia with his buddies? He did more for them, than he did for us.

Obama/Biden 08

'Lipstick on a pig, is just a pig wearing lipstick'. The change mantra on the Republicans......still the same old Republicans. They want another chance to drive the country further into destitution. Americans can fall for it again and fall further into the abyss of suffering.

I am a white woman, a Hillary supporter and I will NOT vote for Obama. You Obma supporters are still trying to bully people into voting for Obama. You rule over NOBODY. I don't care about 2012, hell who knows where Hillary or any of us will be in 2012.

I am not voting for McCain because Palin is a white woman. I am voting for that ticket because Obama is not ready to lead. If he does not win I can see it now – HE LOST BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL RACIST BLAH BLAH BLAH. McCain/Palin is a strong ticket and they will be strong for all of us. Not wishy washy like Obama. Obama will also destroy us economically. McCain is the man and Palin is the woman!!

Wow, this link couldn't be more misleading, and is sinking to a "new low".

I'm sure John sings "I've Got You Babe" every night. Not going to happen. Thank God we don't have dictators, or we didnt' before George Bush.

Obama/Biden 08

Voters don't fall for MSM spin to try to get the ratings, look at the issues and where Obama and McCain stand.

DON'T FOLLOW THE SPIN..

Sooooooooo tried of hearing about Palin no meat just wall shadows.
Come on get back to the real issues.

I know more white women than not that do NOT agree with Sarah Palin's ideas. I am moving to Canada if Palin gets into office.

She is inexperienced, hypocritical and has extremely dangerous ideas. She wants to push her own religious beliefs onto all Americans which is not fair to anyone – has she heard of the seperation of church and state before? Apparently she doesn't care.

Be smart America... vote Obama/Biden.

Registered voters for demarcates 45 million

Registered voters for Republicans 31 Million

Attacking Sarah Palin is not working

Tying Mc Cain to Bush is not working

Mc Cain 08/ Palin 08

Forget all these polls... and isn't this like the 3rd one today regarding white women and palin?

The election will come down to intelligent out of the box thinkers vs. ignorant (some not by choice) closed minded thinkers.

Considering the medical conditions of John Mc Cain, I would like to
know the Medical History of Sarah Palin. Know one is reporting this.

PALIN POWER.....

It's all over for Obama... his vile, low rent attacks turned the tide... against him.

Obama/Biden... same old joke you don't laugh at anymore

People please look at the issues. It is clear that the only ticket with plans are Obama-Biden. Those who are scared of a black man don't think about race but the issues. The same who want to vote for a women. Don't look at her gender but at her lack of knowledge on the issues.

AND MCBUSH IS DANGEROUS! GOD FORBID HE WILL GET ELECTED. AMERICA WILL ENTER A NEW WAR WITH IRAN AND A NEW COLD WAR WITH RUSSIA. STOP THIS INSANITY!

Not this white woman, or any of my friends or co-workers.

I think Boris and Natasha's 15 minutes are going to be over very soon.

In all my 44 years, I cannot believe that American Women are voting on a women's looks over the issues at hand. The polls are taking us back 30 years in showing that women are leaning towards Palin based on her looks and sarcastic tones. Come on American Women!!! Stand up for what you know is right...and she is by no means right on anything that I stand for. Not in 2008!!!

Barack Obama is change. McCain is the same. If we want to get out of this mess we need to vote for Barack Obama.

Not this White women. You know I saw a poll today that said white married women with kids are more likely to vote for Mcain/ Palin.
I can't figure it out. I'm white, I have kids, I'm married, so is my sister , so is my mom, so is my sister inlaw and her sister inlaw and her inlaws and my mother inlaw, All my Aunts same.. We are all voting Obama. I want to know were they took this new poll.. It doesn't represent the white women I know.
Were not dumb you know. ....
Obama/ Biden 08

Not any of the white women I know. They are highly insulted that McCain thought they would support a Republican Presdidency just because he chose a woman to be on his ticket. They were Hillary Supporters and he helped them decide which way to go. They're going with the ticket who respects the rights of women. That would be Obama/Biden and NOT McCain/Palin who would set Women's Rights back 50 years. I'm embarra s sed myself just knowing that he would stoop so low. No way this man should be in the White House. I don't trust his judgement or his word. No Way, No How, No McCain, No Palin.

Women who is supporting McCain must have a low IQ. McCain is hiding behind a skirt and Palin doing all the attacks. She is being used by McCain and these women do not see it. McCain is a coward.

This chick doesn't think global warming is a problem, she is scary!!!

From Ed Koch:

I have concluded that the country is safer in the hands of Barack Obama, leader of the Democratic Party and protector of the philosophy of that party. Protecting and defending the U.S. means more than defending us from foreign attacks. It includes defending the public with respect to their civil rights, civil liberties and other needs, e.g., national health insurance, the right of abortion, the continuation of Social Security, gay rights, other rights of privacy, fair progressive taxation and a host of other needs and rights.

If the vice president were ever called on to lead the country, there is no question in my mind that the experience and demonstrated judgment of Joe Biden is superior to that of Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin is a plucky, exciting candidate, but when her record is examined, she fails miserably with respect to her views on the domestic issues that are so important to the people of the U.S., and to me. Frankly, it would scare me if she were to succeed John McCain in the presidency.

no i dont think so she is ernegising repub women why is the media so scared to interview sarah palini thats my question why are they so scared of the rups media go to work now

It seems to me that these polls are not giving women a lot of credit. The women during my mother's time would love this but modern women of today will not fall for this madness. This woman does not stand for anything a modern working mother stand for. We want our daughters to have the same choices that we have and the same for our grand daughters. We have made so much progress and i can not believe that any woman today will want to take any steps back. We are on our way to the future.

The McCain Train broke down months ago and now he has found a new ride to get him to the White House. It is so sad that this woman does not see that she is being used by a Politician for one reason only. I guess she is so excited by the thought that she would be one weak heartbeat away from the most powerful office in the free world makes all ok to her even if she knows she is not ready to step in and take that lead.

And by the way, what is the purpose of the adjective WHITE being added here. Why do you feel the need to put that card out there ?
We ( her fans ) aren'nt bringing race into it why are you.

If Sarah would get off the Grandma circuit long enough to talk to the press, the rest of the country can decide if she's ready. Until then, she'll never get my vote.

the mccain people just don't get it.
palin is no hillary.

hillary is hillary.

we vote our conscience, our logic and our rights.

democratic women don't need a womanizing female candidate.

Like Mrs Clinton says, "No way, No How, No McCain- Palin"

OBAMA BIDEN 08'

When McCain become the trophy wife in this election. Every time I see him his standing in the background, slightly off to side side, grinning and nodding his head. Say something, man, anything. Explain to me how you plan to change in ingrained culture from the top down. Okay, so you're a maverick and bucked the party. Looks to me like the party has been saying, "screw you" McCain and will continue to do so. If in 26 years the man's one claim to fame is going against his party, it begs the question, "Why hasn't the party moved toward him." Unless you can improve "reform" a man's principles, values and what esteems him, you cannot change the man. Folks, it's not about the mover, it's about the movement. McCain cannot and will not reform the USA because his supporters are about what will be done for them, not what they will do for others. Government is tasked to do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. Morality cannot be legislated...ask Moses. There are to many important questions that McCain/Palin just don't have an intent on answering.

hahahaha. It is so funny pumas are so obviously Repubs in disguise. Just look at any of the comments on the stem cell issue and they blow their cover!!!

Any intelligent woman would be very frightened of Palin and
what she stands for. We will not vote for her because
she is a female as some of you seem to believe.
She does not represent us or our beliefs and desires.
She will be a continuation of Mccain/Bush policies which
have voted against equality, equal pay, sex education in
school, freedom of choice and is even more radical
than Bush.
We could not, would not continue with policies that
have made our children, grandchildren etc victims
for decades to come.
We would not, could not support policies that have
almost destroyed our country.
We will not support a man who is war hungry and wants
to bring back the draft.
A man who has no idea or cares about the survival of
America, except how he sees it in is thwarted mind.

Not all the white women are voting for McCain. We are thinking women that have real concerns for the issues and we are not persuaded by the Republican tricks and lies. We don't care about Sarah...we see John McCain as more of the same.

not all white voters and people are scared of what you are saying there (go obama) its racial profiling on your part to catagorize all whites are the same. but some are deffinately stupid enuff to vote the way you are talking about. and its pathetic. and im not to scared to sign my name as anonomous either

White people spent all year complaining they didn't "know Obama".

Now the GOP has their own "Obama", except she is an attractive white woman...and what do white voters do? Swing to her in 10 days flat while knowing absolutely NOTHING about her record, background, etc.

BIGOTRY IS AN UGLY TRAIT.

Why is this Ticker reporting frivilous polls? How about reporting on Palin's record on the environment, for instance? Or any of her positions on any number of important issues, like the "holy" war in Iraq? She is making speeches on the campaign trail that are misleading, that contain half truths, and CNN is not reporting the whole story behind her voting record or on her views on issues. Another ticker headline in this series boasts that McCain was moved to a larger venue. The story tells that they were asked to move because they were holding a partisan event on school grounds. Why not make that the headline? CNN has become McCNN.

I think women are smarter than this, who could really fall for this obvious ploy?

Breck I used to think the same thing until Palin got on the ticket. Voting for gender seems to be the theme.

Close your eyes, forget race and gender. What information do you gain when you hear the facts of the economy, the future of Your children, not the candidates. Can you honestly say that Mccain and Palin are honest about their goals for the future. Or is it McCain continuing his interest in power as it was so elegantly highlighted in "Mccain Reveal." McCain used Cindy, he used peers around him, and now he is using Sarah. At the end of the day, it is your home, your job and your bank account. Be wise and in your decision. It could cost you or your love ones their life or livelihood.

Go Barack!

She's not running for the Queen of Graceland. This is America, and we require a whole lot more from a Vice Presidential candidate, like knowledge.

Obama/Biden 08

PALIN IS SUCH A BIG SHAME! SHE LIES AND LIES AND LIES AND LIES INTO THE FACE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. WAKE UP PEOPLE, WAKE UP. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY SO MANY WOMEN ARE SUPPORTING HER, A LIAR. I AM SO TURNED OFF BY HER JUST WHEN SHE STARTS TO SPEAK AND SPREAD ALL THOSE LIES AGAIN AND AGAIN I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO VOMIT!

If she is then White Women need to wake up and at least see who they are dealing with! First of all what has she discussed? Anything of substance except utter remakrs about others? She has a terrible record as Govenor of Alaska...but I think these women want a woman in the White House at any cost....and thats the truth of the matter. At least women who were voting for Hillary because of her policies and positons on issues had some intelligence. But sadly the so called Wal-Mart mom has no intelligence...why? Becuause Obama has been the only one talking about education....about Health Care, about the real issues that matter. These women are willing to accept another four years of hell for us all, just so they can say they have a female in the White House...sad.

If nothing else, learn about your choice! You want to lose your rights? you want extremist views that include TRYING to get books banned, want to loose your right to choose?

I am a white woman and I just can't believe my fellow women are so out there. How can anyone vote for Sarah just because she is a woman? Give me a break! Hillary is so much more prepared to lead our country. I wasn't a Hillary supporter but I do admire her. Sarah is no where at the same level. I do not believe Sarah has the experience to lead us if John McCain would die. This is a very scary thought. I hope American women wake up from the Republican spell and elect the correct team, Obama/Biden!!!!!!

Count me out of that group! HA!

Palin's candidacy confirms that gender is a big issue that the political parties need to address. This issue goes beyond race or religion. .We witnessed it with Hillary & now with Palin. Of course, she is going to influence in my vote.

God is more than intelligent. God is the beginning & the end.

We should never mix religion with politics. But many of us, want to use it as a weapon to defeat their opponent. Who are we trying to fool? Only ourselves.

Tina

NO WAY NO PAIN, I MEAN PALIN.
OMG SHE IS NOT A WOMAN SHE IS A PIT BULL THAT WILL GO AFTER ANYTHING SHE WANTS AND WON'T RELEASE THE JAW UNTIL SHE KILLS IT .
SORRY, I AM A MOTHER OF 2, SINGLE, WORKED HARD TO PUT THEM THROUGH PRIVATE SCHOOLS AND COLLEGE. I WORKED 2 JOBS, ONE AS A RN AND AT NIGHT AS A WAITRESS. THIS WOMAN NEEDS TO GO BACK TO AK AND TAKE CARE OF WHAT SHE HAS CREATED AND NOT TRY AND BE THE NEW WOMAN SHE THINKS AMERICA SHOULD HAVE.
NO WAY NO MCCAIN NO PAIN

Yeah, OLD and OUT OF TOUCH WOMEN

I am a white woman.

I voted for Hillary Clinton.

I am going to vote for Obama.

I am pro choice. I support stem cell research and science. I am looking forward to having a smart team in the white house. The dumb team we have now has not worked out.

Palin has officially covinced me to vote for Obama. I have heard nothing but lies from day one. She said "thanks, but no thanks", my rear! What did she spend that $233 million on anyway? I can't fill my gas tank this week!!!! Her election will be mean huge set backs for women's rights and any hope for reform.

Obama/Biden 08

To answer the Headline -- YES, and men also.
Straight talk -- Don't believe the intranet smears, they're just that.

WITH ALL DO RESPECT ... THERE OLD !!!!!
MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THAT PARTY ARE OLD !!!!
THIS IS WHY OBAMA WILL WIN THE ELECTION ... MCCAIN HAS THE OLD VOTE ... OBAMA HAS THE NEW VOTE !!!!
THE POLLS DONT COUNT THE NEW VOTERS YET " LIKE MYSELF "
EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS .. I CANT WAIT TO SEE THE REPUBLICANS FACES AFTER THEY SEE A HUGE !!!! AMOUNT OF NEW VOTERS THAT SUPPORT OBAMA !!!!!
OBAMA BiDEN 08/12

Correction: RACIST White Women who would rather support a white woman whose record proves she does not support equality for women than vote for a black man who does. Palin believes no abortions even if you're raped or the victim of incest. Plain believes creationism and not sex education should be taught in our schools.

There shouldn't be one woman in the United States holding a sign with her name on it. This woman would have us squabbling over abortion rights and gay marriage for the next 4 to 8 years rather than preparing our children for a global economy and doing something about global warming. This woman wants this teenage pregnancy is "typical" in America while a kid from a modest home getting an ivy league education is something to scoff at. She is NO EXAMPLE FOR WOMEN–AT LEAST NOT IN THIS CENTURY.

NO PALIN–NO WAY!!

I agree that this election is about race. I am white and most of my former friends said that they would not vote for a black man. I can't stand intolerance and I am disgusted. Looks like I will be looking for new friends.....and possibly a move to Canada.

DUMB QUESTION of course she would have an influence. The REAL TEST is after 4 or 5 One on One interviews with TV anchors. EVERYBODY needs to take a DEEP BREATH and find out more about her views and positons on the SEVERAL seroius issues facing the country.

Sarah Palin is a totally self-centered & ruthless politician who takes lying to an art form. Believe the bull that the McCain-Plain camp is spewing if you want, but take it from an Alaskan, this woman is a disaster in progress. In an action reminiscent of her firing all the Wasilla city employees that disagreed with her, troopergate, etc, there is one thing the oil company controlled Palin campaign is doing a good job at keeping quiet..she is little by little moving the capital of Alaska to Anchorage/Wasilla...something she totally denied in her campaign for governor. This is with the full knowledge that doing this will destroy thousands of Juneau residents financially. Anyone who believes this woman is not a total puppet of big oil and greedy Alaskan business interests, needs to get a reality check!

Moms lost their childs in Iraq war, Moms lost their insurance in Bush government, Moms lost their jobs overseas due to lobbyist run Bush Government, Moms pay half their salary to gas due to Bush government tie up with Oil giants – The self interest government of BUSH made "THE SURVIVAL for life of major AMERICANS itself is at high RISK". I think people are not fools to burn their own life by voting to Mc Same and Palame

Another potential Palin rumor/scandal could be about to surface. A colleague forwarded a You Tube type video of a young AA teen male claiming he is the real father of Bristol Palin's baby. I have no idea if there is any truth to his allegation. It would seem only a matter of time before someone forwards this video to the MSM. It could be a hoax. While watching it, I did think when does all of this end. And for the record, I am a female.

She is going to fade when people get to know where she stands. She is like Bush and Cheney and this is not what America is looking for at this moment. Not this time, not the same old same old.

We want reform, we want change.

Obama/Biden 08/12.

They say? Whire Males? But time will tell. Women need a spoke-person in Government. How long will they have wait, to see this again?

What does race have to do with this? As a white woman, I don't vote my race, gender or ethnicity. I vote for the very best person to represent my values and ideas. That is Barack Obama. Palin is an insult to me. She made it clear that not only does she hold very different values from mine, she will not respect my values. Do not insult white, black or any other color of human being by such inane quandaries. Go Obama! Palin Never!

I am a 64 year old white female and I do not support McSenile. I have six grandsons and if they want to enlist I will be behind them 100%, but I can not see them drafted and with McSenile they will be after he starts the next war.Senior citizens had better find out were he stands on social security, because your benefits will go down under McSenile and the age of retirement is going up for our children and he draws over 1900 dollars a month. I can not believe American women are the stupid , but I guess you learn something new every day.How has Bush's tax cut worked for us this last 8 years , hang on John McSenile promises more of the same.
Connie from Indiana

Oh the liberal bloggers are out in force today!

By all means "white women" vote for McCain, But when he re-institutes the draft AS HE HAS STATED and you are forced to kiss Johnny good-bye to die in a foreign land at Mr.McCain's pleasure remember your actions on November 4th 2008, you were given an option and chose your son's, grandson's, or husband's fate. You will receive no sympathy here.

Mrs. Palin needs to be reminded that Jesus Christ was a community organizer and Pontius Pilate was a governor.

As a white woman, I am solidly for Obama. I honestly felt that the Palin pick was insulting and patronizing.

I don't care about her kids or any of that nonsense, but I do care about her record and outright lies about the bridge to nowhere, the ebay jet etc...

People need to stop acting like she's a China doll and ask some real questions. Good grief, isn't she supposed to be a pit bull with lipstick?

this white woman will be voting for OBAMA! choose brains over lipstick

Palin is influencing THIS white woman to vote for Obama!

McCain never need Hillary supporters, he needed the religious right, which he now has. I am so sick of hearing about Hillary. We now will win regardless of who you pumas vote for so go home and bake some cookies. You have lost again.

Palin rules.

Dear Women,
Don't forget how the democratic leadership treated their first viable presidential candidate...they basically wanted her out. It is a small tent in the democratic party. Go McCain- Palin.

"If the vice president were ever called on to lead the country, there is no question in my mind that the experience and demonstrated judgment of Joe Biden is superior to that of Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin is a plucky, exciting candidate, but when her record is examined, she fails miserably with respect to her views on the domestic issues that are so important to the people of the U.S., and to me. Frankly, it would scare me if she were to succeed John McCain in the presidency." -Ed Koch

It's not that Palin polls BETTER among men, it's that she polls WORSE among women.

This is because women in this country are PRO-CHOICE, and they don't want Palin to be able to have any influence on Supreme Court nominees.

All people, women, men, old, young, black, white, and so on, VOTE for the constitutional law professor, Obama, and restore our faith in the constitution.

When Sara Palins lipstick wears off us women, who haven't done our research, will see the true pitbull. Just read what the former Mayor of New York City – Ed Koch had to say about Palin.

Direct quote:

"Sara Palin is a plucky, exciting, candidate, but when her record is examined, she fails miserably with respect to her views on the domestic issues that are so important to the people of the U.S., and to me. Frankly, it would SCARE me if she were to succeed John McCain in the Presidency."

THE MAKE UP IS FADING!!!

Unfortunately the pumas are voting based on their emotions. I was a Hillary but when she lost and she did lose fair and square I switched over to Obama. The pumas and other people supporting McCain/Palin need to take the time to find out what these candidates stand for and from what I have seen they do not stand for much. If Obama loses he can afford McCain benefits for rich people however many of the people who voted against him will still be complaining how the country is going in the wrong direction and they can blame themselves for picking McCain/Palin.

I wouldn't vote for Sarah Palin if she were even moderate in her politics! A woman who portrays herself as a "pitbull with lipstick", outs her pregnant teen daughter in prime time to avoid political scandal, carries her baby on stage for the "Awww" factor, doesn't support abortion for rape and incest victims, and even thinks she's in the same league as Hillary has some sort of complex – not sure what the shrinks would name it, but there's something wrong there.... A model for young women? How can Cindy McCain sleep at night?

I hope someone made McCain choose Palin instead of Lieberman because if she really was his pick – my opinion of him is now below ground level too.

Obama/Biden

I think women are smarter than this, who could really fall for this obvious ploy?

If the vice president were ever called on to lead the country, there is no question in my mind that the experience and demonstrated judgment of Joe Biden is superior to that of Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin is a plucky, exciting candidate, but when her record is examined, she fails miserably with respect to her views on the domestic issues that are so important to the people of the U.S., and to me. Frankly, it would scare me if she were to succeed John McCain in the presidency. -Ed Koch

I can't belive there are that many women out there that are so clueless. McCain has always been agianst womens rights and Palin is against womens choices. Make no doubt about it if this Republican ticket gets into office the average American person is toast.

What scares me about Palin is her reigniting the culture wars just when America was starting to at least appear to move beyond that ugly era. There is no place in Washington for someone who is so overtly religious about her politics, particularly when she has such extremist positions. If a politician actually believes that a war is God's will...specifically she said that the war effort in Iraq is "from God"...he/she should not say that out loud. It sounds, for lack of a better way of putting it, what someone in the middle east would say about the war against America. While my personal faith is deep, I DO NOT believe God involves him/herself in wars nor favors one group over another. We are fighting that type of extremism, not trying to emulate it!!!!

ummmmm, NO WE DO NOT HAVE A FAVORABLE VIEW OF THIS EXTREME RIGHT-WING WOMAN!

i'm so sick of this insulting talk about women voting for palin (or hillary) because they are female. the neoCON right wingers are so out of touch, they actually think they are being open-minded b/c they support a woman. she is HORRIBLE for womens' and children's rights!!!

we white women are voting for our FAMILIES and CHILDREN, and that is precisely why these whacko right-wing neoCON must go!!!!!

this country will be truly destroyed if we have 4 more years of republicans; it's not even an option. if you think i'm exaggerating google Article 52 (51?); what you will see makes the Saw movies look like disney!!!!

some americans are so flippin stupid! they'd rather live in their blind little bubble where they can PRETEND a big strong white man is protecting them from terrorists!! it's INSANE!!!

thank god/allah/buddha, i share very little with sarah palin except that we both have brown hair.

If white women think Clinton is going to get the Presidency in 2012, they're going to be sadly mistaken. If white women don't support Obama, the Blacks won't support Clinton come 2012 and we'll have another 8 years of Republican rule.

THANK GOD FOR THE LIBRARIAN AND GOD BLESS THE LOWER 48

You mean typical white women don't you CNN and yes she is.

I suspect that white women who want abortion rights turned around and are more interested in the Christian Right agenda will, of course, prefer McCain/Palin. While white women who truly want a change, want to support a woman's right to chose, and watch issues as well as check out what is said instead of just taken the campaign talks at face value; will want Obama/Biden.

The economy is still the issue, women who have sons and daughters in harm's way, want the war to end, teachers want better school funding, insurance and health care are a major issue with most women as well as equal pay for equal work. I think women are just as savvy about these issues as men. The women who voted for Hillary are not going to fooled by Palin's mostly fabricated claims.

Palins religous beliefs helps her campaign. Look what happened when they took prayer out of schools, shootings everywhere.

It's so hard to believe a 72 year old man living in the past with obvious traces of the adverse effect age has on us as humans and a right wing extremist of no real interest to anyone other than the religious wackos who want the whole world to conform to their jaded ideals even if it means holy wars galore.

If John McCain ever did get elected and barbie as his VP he better watch his back as he is more important to the agents of intolerance (McCain's own view of this nuts) dead than alive.

We are not dumb enough to vote for the dumb team.
We are going to vote for strong, capable and 21st century, inspiring leaders-Obama and biden

Guess what Hillary supporters, we don't need you anymore. So go back to your witch. Palin is the new Hillary

mcbush and cheylin

I was originally swayed by her pro-life credentials and her "hutzpa", but now that we know she is being investigated for financial and ethical abuses it looks like another Republican bad apple. Are they all corrupt? USA today is reporting online tonight that Gov. Palin paid herself $17,000 in per diem payments for being at home instead of the actual purpose of the reimbursement, which is supposed to be used for meals and lodging for travel. Embezzelment and fraud? So I'm giving up on this lady. Too bad, because I liked her pro-life credentials.

If anyone selects McCain/Palin over Obama/Biden, their decision is based solely on RACE. White people have a problem with a African American possibly running this country. Quit beating around the bush. Call it what it is and move own. BIGOTRY, plain and simple.

Count me out as one white voter for McCain/Palin ticket...Those two liars aren't getting my important vote!!!

Barack Obama all the way!!!!!!

Um, yeah.

This week's mainstream coverage of the presidential horse-race has been dominated by a series of polls showing the McCain-Palin ticket with its first stable lead over Obama and Biden. Gallup's tracking poll, USA Today and CBS News all show the Republicans with some kind of lead over the Democratic ticket. But, interestingly, all three polls were also conducted using a higher sampling of Republican voters than in July, thus raising a question of methodology.

America...Wake up!

Not this white woman! I will never vote for anyone just because they are a woman. I am going Democratic, but I didn't vote for Hillary, but I would give anything for Hillary over a McCain/Palin administration!

Palin is a fake who uses her family for political gaming.

Yes, evangelicals, women who put womanhood above country and women with low IQ's

If the America people are as wise or intelligent as the British or French people, they should know that Obama should NOT be the one working so hard to win their votes.

Just imagine, as an American, waking up after election day to KNOW that McCain-Palin are your new leaders for the next 4-8 years:

1. How can you ever forgive yourself for such a fatal mistake?

2. What will happen to your beloved Constitution?

3. Bush had a father who was a President, yet look at where America is after 8 years. Did the Repubicans deliver what they promised? Will they deliver for the next 4-8 years or clean up their own mess?

4. What would you live to tell your children about this wonderful opportunity for change? Was it "racially or simply party motivated? And is it really worth the RISk you took? Think, think, and think again– God is an intelligent, not an EMOTIONAL ....!

if john mccain is president it is going to be the begining of world war 3. America be ready for a blood bath. maccain is iddicted to war. Russia wiil not hesitate strike america
