I am neither Democrat nor Republican this year im just looking for someone who will take better care of this country. Having said that, this is what ive learned so far:

Pallin would outlaw abortion under any circumstances even in incest and rape cases. But she is for carrying a gun.

So as a married mom of two hypothetically speaking if im walking down the street and I am raped and become pregnant id have to have this kid under pallin and being that im not working now if me and my hubby cant afford to feed another mouth and have to go on public assistance as if that would ever happen with my hubby's salary!) then id have to deal with those who hate peeps on welfare because they are so-called lazy! But if I give up the kid to social services then the public would have to foot the bill to care for this kid till they are 18!
on the other hand I would be able to blow someones f^@ng head off if I feel they are a threat! is this correct?
Mind you im still trying to figure this all out!

Actually, if you were raped you would be given the morning after pill otherwise known as three or four normal birth control pills.
If you became pregnant, well adoption is always an option.
As to owning a gun...if you killed someone with a lead pipe, a baseball bat, a machete (quite the problem in strictly enforced gun controlled UK) or even a (gasp!) gun you would be breaking the law and would serve time in prison.
Not quite the raging screaming heebie jeebies of your post, but a hell of a lot more accurate.

If you had the gun, you could put a bullet between the eyes of the attempted rapist, because attempt is all it would be once you brandish a firearm. I do not personally own any guns, but the legal gun owning segment of the population have proven to be extremely responsible. Laws are only truly functional for people willing to obey them.

I don't support abortion as a form of birth control. I support Obama but I'm not pro choice all the way. I do and always will say that if you have a rape victim she should be able to get a abortion. Also there are girls every year that get pregant by their own Fathers or Uncles what about them. Or the 12 or 14 year old. Who thinks that Hillary Voters are going to back this women as she is a conservative.

Not for long if McCain is elected and that would represent a majority of the country. Could the prochoicers live with it?

Oh boy! Let's all carry guns with us everywhere we go. So much easier to settle disputes that way.
