The simple answer is - they're scared. See, when Hillary Clinton conceded to Obama, all the women voters supporting Clinton went to Obama. Now there's another woman in the running, and the Obama supporters are afraid they will lose the women voters to McCain's side. Sarah Palin levels out the playing field, making this upcoming election a much closer race than previously expected.

 

I think even McCain would agree that Palin may be a political liability after everything that has happened this weekend. The pregnant daughter story is getting national attention, as is her reversal on the "Bride to Nowhere."

McCain should be scared that Palin will sink his ticket.

 

I think quite the inverse - it shows her as a real person. Sure, she has made some bad moves, but shes a VP. Dan Quayle, anyone?

Her having a pregnant dauhter who is getting married to the father of the child-to-be strikes a chord with those down south, as it is a common situation in many households, but is going the proper route, to raise the child in a legit marriage. This will draw in the southern vote stronger. She also appeals to a lot of the conservatives out there, and this was the deciding group of people that got Bush back in the white house for 4 more years.

Personally, I hate them all. Im hoping for an independent to pop up. I think Obama won't live for long and we'll be back to some crazy old coot for a president. (Biden). McCain is old as well, God knows when the reaper's coming for him. So then we'd have Plain in office, and I think she'll be swarmed by her cabinet and advisors and become a puppet.

If I wasn't close with my family, I'd have moved out of the country by now =)
