So why support her....?

And why do you liberals keeping bringing her up? Nervous, are ya? It certainly seems that way. And I say, keep it up libs, your ridiculous spew just puts more people in her corner!

The next sentence answered your question. According to Castellanos:

"The basis of her support is that she represents the social conservative wing of the party, that she's a new-generation working-mom conservative, and that she's a victim of the news media. And she's still those three things."

I've never heard of any candidate for any office running on the basis of "I'm a victim of the media". That will be an interesting platform.

good question. why would anyone support a candidate on anything but their record and what they stand for. because isn't that what her record is? what she stands for.

i'm going to go on the fact that Alex Castellanos misspoke.

and for the Conservatives who are defensive about this question....just answer the question! Why do you support her?!

and it's okay to say that a GOP consultant is stupid for saying something like that. really....the lack of logical and reasonable people on Yahoo Answers is annoying.

With a population of 8,000, Wassilla may be the largest Republican Base in America.

Until Todd separates.

They support her because they can't stand the idea of admitting they were wrong. They do it to save face. They know that she is a loser, quitter, and not qualified to run Alaska, much less the entire country, but nothing is worse to a Rep than saying, Man we screwed up.

For the headlines she generates. They need to get attention somehow...and God knows they're in a policy vacuum...so it ain't gonna come from there, is it?

She's hot for a 40 year old and shoots moose from a helicopter, she is the conservative mans ultimate fantasy.

I don't know, I think it's mostly neocon men in Alaska who need to get laid?

Because she appeals to their base. Their base is about 30%, if they lose that, they got nothin.

They're thinking with thier johnsons
