Barack Should Have Picked Hillary!
Filed under: John McCain
Since his appointment of Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential running mate, white women have "flocked" over to support John McCain.
According to a new poll from The Washington Post /ABC News:
Before the Democratic National Convention in late August, Mr Obama held an eight point lead among white women voters, 50 per cent to 42 per cent, but after the Republican convention in early September, Mr McCain was ahead by 12 points among white women, 53 per cent to 41 per cent, the poll found.
Wow!!!!

i don't understand it….why would women (or anyone for that matter) switch to another candidate just because of their sex….I mean - hello - their stance are all issues are so far apart. It's gonna be crazy between now and the elections…..the debates should be INTERESTING!
I fear that the former supporters of Hillary who refuse to vote for Obama are rascist. Sad. Obama will make health care affordable! Obama will mend international relations and much more! Go Obama! Listen to Hillary, vote Obama!
ALSO:
Perez, I can't believe you have so many McCain supporters as readers. Ick.
Re: Intellect_Rules – You can kiss your money goodbye if Obama wins. You won't get to keep any of it, that's for sure. Oh…as far as our foreign enemies are concerned, why does Russian President Putin want Obama to win? Because he doesn't FEAR him. Think about it.
He should have.
There must be more rich people then poor people in this country if Mccain/Palin are winning. Because who ANYONE can want 8 more years of this same BS they must be rich and love not paying taxes. Mccain and Palin can all go to hell and all that vote for them.
well i guess these STUPID white wimen dont what to see their kids being sent to war but they vote for some one who will send their kids and their grandchildren to war, wimen dont like other ppl desiding for them but they are voting for a rep that wants to make it illegal to get an abortion.
????? i call that stupid
How sad is this? Are we that desperate to see a woman in the white house that we would stoop so low as to vote for the most undeserving person of the lot? No disrespect to PALIN as a woman, but as a politician, she sucks royally and she's not getting me to vote for McCAIN!
Obama is a big idiot for not picking her. I hate her too….but he would have had it in the bag. Just goes to show you he is a moron that does NOT care about what this country wants! It's all about HIM HIM HIM…..and his ape-wife.
Re: Andy27 – theres only one thing worse that a peter puffin queer. a peter puffin prejudice queer. and get your cutsy pie fuckin queer face off of here..
yup he fucked up! if we are gonna have stupid palin as vp i think ANYONE in that case would have had hilary as president! i was all for hilary but the majority of ppl had to vote for stupid barack and now thanks to that we might have another retarded republican in office!
Are women really this stupid? "Well, hey, his VP nominee has a vagina and I have a vagina, so maybe I'll vote for John McCain now!" What's even more ridiculous is that the job of VP is complete and utter fluff. The FIRST LADY has more responsibilites and clout than the second in command!
And I agree…Obama had an ace in his pocket (Hillary), and now his choice (Biden) is going to cost him this election.
I am glad Obama didn’t pick Hillary. She is crazy and woud have obviously taken over and ruined this country! The only reason McCain picked a woman is to get the votes which I think is bullshit. You should be voting for the best candidate for this country not just for a woman who sucks and would never be able to make it as president. Do your research and I am sure the people swayed by this ridiculous publicity stunt by McCain will realize the best pick for what this country needs is Obama!!!!!!
How can people be so sure of a woman they didn't know anything about till last week? Ya know?
Its retarded that white people will vote for McCain just because he is white, or women will vote for McCain just because his VP is a woman, or black people will vote for Obama just because he is black…..but we live in a fucked up society/country and people do vote like this. As much as I want, I don't ever think it will really change….its fucking sad. On a brighter note the Steelers won this past weekend and Tom Brady is out for the year WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Sure he has the white women voters. But why aren't they polling the Hispanic and African American Women voters? WE COUNT TOO!! There are alot of women of color that are following this election. This is History in the Making. For either winner. There will be more people that will be voting in this election than ever before. Do not take this poll to heart. Because the white women are not deciding this election!!!
NO WAY, NO HOW, NO PALIN, NO McCAIN!!!
Biden needs to step down, and then he can Hillary can be the vp.
Re: The Warden – My point was that Mccain/Palin have views that are totally different than mine. I was giving an opinion, as are you. My opinion is that i wouldn't choose to vote for Mccain just because he has a woman VP, I go on issues and I'm far from gullible but you seem to have your panties in a bunch over everyone's comment's so I'll stop there and wish you the best.
Re: buck – It is what's most important, I believe we all pick who we want to be our president based on their ideas and goals for our country. Not just based on whether they are pro-choice or not but for me that is a significant subject, I'd like to know where people stand on all subjects before I put them in office. And you know what, we could still be screwed
Obama was A-SACARED of his most staunch critic Joe Biden…He SHOODA picked Hilary Clinton what a POWERHOUSE ticket that would have been…..but Obama was A-SCARED I tell ya…A-SCARED!!!!!!
Re: ELUC – Because sadly minorities do not vote!!! I am hispanic and do vote but, most minorities do not, so they can care less about hispanics!!!
….and don't blame women for America's downfall….Bush did that on his own….FOOKER!!!
I think the unemployment rate will go down so much when Mccain wins!!! Since alot of people are saying if the Republicans win they are leaving the country!!! Cool that is one more reason to vote Republican more jobs available left due to people leaving the USA!!!!
If Obama loses this election, it is because of his EGO. His EGO could not handle Clinton on the ticket. It's not about "change" or he would have put his EGO aside and did what was best for this country and chosen the "landslide dream ticket" of Obama/Clinton. Such a shame.
I don't think of Palin as a role model, not fot me, not for my daughter, not for the country. I hope women are smarter than to give their votes to someone just because of gender !
I think it is very sad that people are going to be voting based on color and sex. Women and people of color should be voting based on what is truly better for us americans, as a country. They should be so ashamed of themselves.
This white woman has not flocked….
Re: Sammy –
Because being a creationist, anti-abortion, anti-gay, bible thumping, hypocritical "my daughter is 17 and knocked up but I don't believe in pre-marital sex" Republican is a bit more liberal than most Republicans.
You're clearly a fucking idiot!
i dont pay too much mind to the polls….but i do think that hilary clinton would have been very valuable to obama's campaign if she were on the ticket…i do think that if clinton was on the ticket the race wouldn't be as tight. i believe that there are millions of americans who do not want to see a black man as president, and they will definitely come out to vote for mccain for that sole reason.i do that think that as a woman palin can openly criticize obama/biden in a way that a man never could about a woman.
as a white woman, i'm embarrassed that some people were so easily swayed. just because she's a woman doesn't mean she's the right woman for the job.
so disappointing…
FUCK MCCAIN AND FUCK PALIN!!
I hope the "white women polls" are choosing more than a woman in the ellection…It will be sad to see palin and mccain ruling this country with politics from the XVIII century
It is not about democrats, Hillary or an African American smart guy, it is about thinking and choosing the best person for the job…. and so far, I believe this person is Mr. Obama.
Thoughts: there are just as many stupid women as men. I already knew that.
ummm DUH.
Even though I do agree americans are afraid of having a black president. I think people are more concerned about having a woman.. That's why barack won the nomination, not hillary. Look what they're doing to palin in the press….. EXACTLY what they did to Hillary. This is a classic case of sexism.
Obama 08
Re: fogglite007 – OMG what little experience Obama has???? Palin has only been governor for 2 years!!!!!!! And before that a mayor of a town of 9000 people. That is just embarrassing. She could very well be the next president…. does anyone realize how bad this is for everyone?
Re: krazihottkelli/bitchygrl – You're a fucking ignorant racist.
I agree with Intellect_Rules. Palin a heartbeat away from temper-tantrum-throwing McCain. This is very scary. Voting for President is not a joke. Treating this like picking "who wears the dress" better is a very sad commentary on the U.S. voter.
THiS JUST PROVES THAT PEOPLE DONT GiVE A DAMN WHAT SOMEONE STANDS FOR THEY JUST WANT TO SEE A WOMAN iN OFFiCE..iF THEM DUMB BiTCHES DONT OPEN THEY EYES & SEE THAT SHES A JACK ASS WHOS FULL OF LiES AND WiLL FUCK UP THE NATiON WiTH HER DUMB ASS ViEWS!!!
oh please all you people talking about what an idiot palin is and how stupid women are. hilary was not a smart choice for obama and he knew it, that is exactly why he didn't choose her in the first place. he wanted john edwards and that ship sunk so he had to go for the next best thing. face it HILARY WAS NEVER GOING TO GET ON THAT TICKET!!!
It's so in the bag!!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Go Team Mccain/Palin…Liberals keep running with the same story about the daughter b/c that's all the gossip they can take out on Palin….so sorry Obama, your superstar status ended when Gov. Palin was introduced as VP running mate.
Mccain/Palin 08' baby!
If women want a symbolic achievement and if they want to support fundies that keep telling them that their place is the kitchen and they are nothing but baby ovens then Palin is their girl. She is scary, the fact that she doesn't believe in evolution scares the hell out of me. Think what she would do to our messed up health system, I bet they are going to start giving prayer medications and "Are you faithful enough?" tests.
If that is true…so sad. pro-gun,anti-choice,anti-sex ed(hello! Bristol), against the protection of our environment, anti-same sex marriage/family, for church in schools….on and on..it goes. She is an anti feminist.against what women have worked for for so many years. If they win… well, Welcome to the 50's.
HA HA see Obama, two can play that game of GIMMICKS!
jealous much
the title of this entry says it all, but we'll yell it: BARACK SHOULD HAVE PICKED HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you get the picture…
My comment? White women shouldn't vote. Obviously, they're not smart enough! LMAO! I'm so funny.
I'm a woman and I can honestly say that women as a whole are fucking stupid! We are sheep! I wanted Hillary Clinton with all my heart picked as the democratic candidate, but guess what she didn't get picked…fare and square. I moved on in MAY when I knew she lost it! I support Barack Obama now with all my heart and will do anything and everything I can to see him elected as the next president of the United States.
Its no wonder why women are still where we are and earn only 77 cents to the dollar that a man earns for the same work. We vote on vapid issues…non issues…like the fact that Palin is a woman. Palin is the antithesis of Hillary Clinton. Why the fuck would any woman who supported Clinton in the primaries vote for Palin? Oh, because we are SHEEP and get led by the sheep herder. Can't you see through the transparent attempt by McCain to draw in those women voters (sheep) because they are still pissed that Clinton didn't get the nomination? If you can't see through his bullshit than you must be a dumbass woman (a sheep!).
I am a white woman and i am NOT voting for McCain/Palin!!!!
Why would I want a woman who is ANTI-choice & bible-thumping?? She is setting women back years instead of making progress… I wish you ladies could see this.
How foolish for women to think that this is some sort of Hilary II.
Re: Manda756 –

Re: asian30 –

How can you read McCain's mind?
Re: Belliehead –
#51
Can you post your references for the accusations you're making please?
Thanks
"White Women" who have gone over to McCain/Palin were never Pro-Hillary they were Anti-Obama. A true Hillary supporter would never vote for a woman who was Anti-Choice, Anti-Environment, Anti-Gay, etc., etc., etc,!!!
And I think Obama was absolutley right to NOT choose Hillary. He can't run on a change platform and have an ex president running around in the white house.
How come all these women are now stupid? When Obama was winning all I heard was how all women were supporting him. Now that all the negatives are catching up to Obama and people are seeing him for what he is, now eveyr one's stupid for supporting the Republicans.
OF COURSE he should have picked Hilary as his VP. He would have 100% of the Democrats behind him. But Mrs. Obama, or the old boy network, just couldn't go with Hilary. So it's Obama's loss. If he loses the election, he'll know he listened to the wrong advice. (Jeez, if MY opponet garnered as much support as Hilary did, I would have been frantic to get her to run with me. Go figure.)
WTF??
why would someone in their right mind change their vote to McCain just because he picked a vigina with teeth for Vice president. If he's elected and dies half way through the first term The vagina with teeth will be in control of NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

I'm in the military and am going on six years on my Bachelors degree. Some of us have a family to take care of and a full time job. It's hard to go to class while in Iraq. Also, I guarantee you're not moving to Canada.

Majority rules. Apparently most of the country doesn't feel the same way you do.
Re: iluvmesumperez –

Once again, could your provide your references and the court where she was convicted of murder please? Do you work, or are you a stay at home mom. What I hear you saying is that women should stay at home, instead of working.
Yeah..fuck that. Any woman with intelligence wouldn't choose her candidate based on the fact that he chose a woman running mate. What sort of woman did they poll exactly?
Re: Minx –
#154
Hi Minx,
So what does this say about America? If the polls are right, then most Americans want what McCain wants. Our system is majority rules, right? I didn't want Clinton in office, my side lost. Majority rules. If people don't vote, they have no right to complain I think.
Ugh I hope Hillary will speak up to the stupid flock!! If you're for women Palin is not your candidate!! This is the woman who made rape victims pay for their own expenses!!! She probably thought they all deserved what they got because they weren't Christian enough or something.
Re: MagsCo –
#274
"probably thought," it's very funny how many mind readers there are on this blog. Just because someone doesn't agree with your pick doesn't make them stupid. Also, can you post your reference where she did that please?
yeah, he should have. he's a jackass. he MIGHT have got my vote if he chose her, but there's no way in hell i'd vote for him now. i'd rather have a filthy, shitty republican back in office than barack hussein bin laden.
this is ridiculous!! a candidate should not be preferred for their gender any more than for their race or religion! we should be electing people that are CAPABLE OF RUNNING THE COUNTRY not just some hypocritical backwards bitch with a vag! Honestly, if McCain-Palin win this election then our country is truly doomed! We should be advancing our nations history and culture, not going back to some trailer park in the mid fifties!
i just wanted to add that i don't support mccain either. i'm all for ron paul. he'll never get it, but it's better than just not voting… our choices this year suck! and to whore1 - fuck you! not all white women are idiots. not all of us are 'flocking' to mccain over this woman. fucker.
That is the biggest reason why I feel Barry is going to lose come November. He went with the same old career Washington politician, who got minimal support during the primaries over the candidate that gave him a run for his money. What, did your pride get in the way Barry? Did Michelle tell you not to pick her? You shot yourself in the foot so get ready to head on back to us here in Illinois. Maybe you'll zero in on what we, your constituents, need instead of your agenda and you might fare better next time.
I'm not going to vote for McCain just because he is using a woman to try and get votes. Reading through a handful of these first comments, its good to see the average republican is still a highschool student at heart.
How stupid are these white women? Palin is a step back for women's rights. Dumb white women voters will bring an end to our country as we know it when Palin becomes Pres.
What kind of idiot would pick someone just because they are female?..i heard the joke palin said on tv about the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull..but the original one I heard said what is the difference between a bitch and a pitch bull and im really thinking right about now that bitch is a pit bull….i say if we end up stuck with that bitch as our vice pres. .. its our fucken faults for having so many stupid ass people voting based on gender..
fan-effin-tabulous!
eww mccain palin? ewww nooo.
I'm a white woman in the demographic McCain wanted - while I wasn't thrilled with either candidate, McCain picking Palin made me 100% Obama. I'm with Matt Damon that the thought of Palin ending up president is SCARY. She's more conservative than McCain, and she'll set women's rights back 30 years. Who is she kidding with the abstinance thing? It doesn't seem to work in her life or her family's, so why would it work for the rest of the world? I think she'll actually be running the white house whether McCain is around or not. Not THAT is SCARY!
Wow, shocking and stunning… I am sure Hillary feels good now that her 'followers or supporters' really did not care much about her policy or what she stood for, only that she was a woman.
.
wow, still shocked, way to go McCain — you should feel proud of bringing women to their rightful place in this world.
Deadbeat-Democrats are pissed off for many, many reasons… and it's understandable.
If McCain win's, they'll have to wait another four years for their 'free ride' and government grants to cover art made out of human feces. They couldn't get it together enough to make it happen for Hilla-Bitch and they are now stuck with a would-be terrorist for President that doesn’t have enough gray matter upstairs to put his non-military hand over his would-be terrorist heart during the national anthem. He doesn’t even have it together enough to make it look like he’s putting in the effort.
Oh, and just to set the record straight… Hilla-Bitch made it perfectly clear that she had no interest what so ever in being VP… Yep, you can tell that she's in it for the good of the people with that one.
Whine, whine, whine… Face it Dems, you’re not going to be the first to put a woman in the white house… Hold on for a minute, didn’t Hilla-Bitch have more pull and power than Al Gore? I digress; you were the first ones to put a woman in the white house.
But, more to the point… Isn’t this a site about Hollywood crack whores? Really folks, are you going to take your political advice from a website where the biggest draw is panty-free up-skirt photos?
Just so you know where I’m coming from…
Both parties are screaming “Change, Change, Change”!
No matter who wins, the only thing that’s going to change is who’s screwing us.
There hasn’t been a Presidential candidate truly worthy of a vote for as long as I’ve been alive from either the Democrat or Republicans. I thought there may have been one when Bill came around… Then he allowed himself to be grossly distracted from the job by, well, shall I say ‘Cigars’.
…and yes, Bill has a right to stick a Cigar to/in anyone he wants and if Hilla-Bitch wants to put up with it… That's her choice. I just don't want that crap happening on my taxpaying dime.
Barack is arrogant and should have know Hillary would have guaranteed this election. Instead he was hit with the Palin factor, and is starting to look like a loser.
Just have to hope that they realize that she IS a pit bill, in not a good way. She's MEAN, and Barack hasn't stooped to that level. Puhleeze. She has no experience. She can't be president! Hopefully the vp debates will make it clear, can't wait.
"Since his appointment of Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential running mate, white women have "flocked" over to support John McCain."
Maybe *STUPID* white women. Palin might be a woman but she acts like an asshole. I wouldn't vote for her to be mayor! I'm not voting for someone just because they're a woman or because they're black or for any superficial reason. When I vote for someone, I vote for the person who'd be the best at the job among the candidates to choose from. To do anything else would be pretty foolish!
Re: karencarpenter – Oh yes I know a lot of white women who love her because they feel she's "real". "real fucked up", but real nonetheless. But of course being real makes you capable of running the country…
I would *NEVER* vote for Palin for anything!! What kind of woman would want to take away women's rights? She might be a woman but she thinks and acts like any useless man. She's a traitor to her own sex!! Skank!!
Once again everyone on here believes everything they hear or see in the media is the truth and fact about each of the candidates. NOT. Wait till you hear it from their own lips.My reason for not supporting Obama is his support of the Free Choice Act( from his own lips), which will make it more costly for everone to have a job since it will make it easy for unions to organize in our companies we work for and charge us dues whether we want it or not.
So what, does this mean a large number of white women are idiots?
That is a bunch of HORSE HOCKEY!!! I do not know one single white woman who was for hilary that is now for Palin. Palin has infuriated most of us!
Palin is pretty much my polar opposite. Some women don't support someone based on gender. I am definitely against her because of her platform.
Woman who switched to Mccain because of Palin are idiots.
Palin stands for nothing that Hilary Clinton stood for, so they basically are choosing who to vote for based on their gender, not their views of issues
