Has Palin affected your decision to vote for McCain?

Now that it's been a little while to see who Palin really is, if you were thinking of voting for McCain before, has his VP picked affected whether you'll vote Republican now? Just a simple question, Democrats need not answer, please. My state is voting for McCain... i'm voting for no one.

    Palin has made no difference to me. I was for McCain at the beginning of the primaries and nothing could get me to stay home on election day. The choice is McCain or Barry. Palin isn't even in the mix.

    Palin will make the best most effective VP this country has ever seen.

    @Darwin(above) - Obviously you know nothing about Sarah Palin. Her husband makes more money fishing in just 40 days(annual days allowed for commercial salmon fishing) than most people make in two years. He also makes big bucks working on the Alaskan Pipe Line. They have a beautiful huge home on the water with a very nice salmon fishing boat and an airplane docked in their back yard. You say 'single wide'? Okay, I think there are many people like you who would love to have their 'single wide'.

    yes. Palin was a bad pick. Way too much dirt! Sarah was a member of the AIP (Alaskan Independence Party) before she became mayor of Wasilla in 1996 and even though McCain denied it, she was at the conventions in 1994 and 2000. She also addressed the AIP conventions in 2006 and 2008. Todd was a party member 1995-2002. Joe Vogler was founder of the AIP and Sarah Palin at the 2008 convention said that she shared their vision. Understand so far? Joe Vogler stated some very disturbing terrorist things. He said, "I'm an Alaskan, not an American. I've got no use for America or her damned institutions." And again, "The fires of hell are glaciers compared to my hate for the American government." And she shares his vision. Do you realize what Palin is doing now at her rallies? She is creating mobs and creating terrorism in our own country. Do you realize that this will destroy America? You don't have to take my word for it. You can hear both Joe Vogler say these things and Palin says she shares AIP's vision.

    Sarah Palin has ties to radical Alaskan

    Palin actually gave me hope for the Republican party I really don't think anyone wants her in Washington cause she will clean house and not be quite about it and I really don't think either party wants that! I would love it I think you would be exposed to whole other world of government! Go McCain/Palin 2008

    Yes.

    Although I'd be even more likely to vote for Palin-McCain than McCain-Palin.

    Palin only reinforced my decision to vote for McCain. I think she's a wonderful choice.

  • I actually was leaning toward McCain until Palin came on the scene. I also live in a deep red State, but so what, unless something big happens between now and when I go to the polls, I'll chose Obama, and I'll vote against my incumbent Senator and Congressman.

    Registered Republican since 1968. Dropped support for McCain as soon as I found out about Palin as his running mate. What a moron.

    She did not change my mind. I think the media has portrayed her in a bad light and I am voting for McCain and I welcome Sarah Palin to become our vice president.
