Lots more links if you do a simple google search. She was the reason my daughter and I did not vote for McCain, and my older daughter, a Hillary supporter, was angry that the McCain campaign thought ANY woman on the ticket would be enough to win over the Hillary supporters. We all voted for Obama.
You can give me links all day long, but that still doesn't prove your assertion that everyone who voted for Obama thought Palin was unqualified. You obviously don't understand correlations. The correlation you made above is not a valid correlation.

If you read the article, you would know that it said that 60% of the public thought Sarah was unqualified. Where did you get the idea that I said all these people voted for Obama? I only said that's why my daughters and I voted for him!

You can't say that all of the people who voted for Obama thought Palin was unqualified to be VP. But nice try.
Many Republicans voted for Obama because of Palin. I defy you to find one person who voted for Obama and who also approved of Palin.

You still can't make the correlation that EVERY person who voted for Obama did so because of Palin. People voted for Obama for various reasons. You cannot say 100% of them were against Palin.

59% of the American pulbic thought Sarah was unqualified. About 52% voted for Obama. So obiously, some people must have voted for McCain even though they thought Sarah was unqualified. I know several people in my office in that category.

So Sister Sarah .. have we heard if she will be appointing herself to the senate yet?

She likes to be chosen like a queen instead of being voted to washington, doesnt she

actually I have decided I am no longer sick of her since luz and san have attacked me.

I cant wait for her to try to run for president in the future and watch the repubs eat her up in the primaries... it'll be comic to watch.

Fortunately, Stevens is losing the election at the moment. She may not have the chance to appoint herself!
