Considering it'd be a backwards joke, probably never...

I'd be more worried about it being a she, so there's criticism for the Hillary yanks...the fact that she's young, which most people are going to say 'what does she know' or 'she's inexperienced' when she isn't...and the fact that she has five kids and one of them is a Down's Syndrome baby that she's kept showing of her pro-life-ness which is going to draw fire the most I think...

But yea, an obvious conservative choice.

I think Palin will bring a lot of female voters who otherwise would have voted for Obama...

I base this solely off of the fact that my mom, who is very liberal and a lifelong Democrat, voted for Pat Buchanan because she decided she would vote for the first candidate to choose a woman vice president... (of course, my mom's vote is irrelevant because she lives in Massachusetts, which is... not exactly the most contested state)

And the other idiots will vote for Obama.

Just because people are actually going to vote for McCain, doesn't mean that they are idiots, and visa versa.

Personally, I don't know who I am voting for. I'm not part of any party, nor do I want to be.

But it just irks me about how both sides have to bad mouth each other just because of their different views. If someone wants to vote for someone, then so what. If its for their own wrong reasons (like voting for Obama because he is HALF black or McCain because his running mate is a woman), then let them be blind to it. But if they truly believe in their candidate, then let them. But I don't think they should be called an idiot for doing so.

This is just my early morning rant and I don't mean to come down on you. I'm just tired of all the bad mouthing that I have to hear from my co-workers and friends. If you don't agree, debate about it and stop the name calling.
