Just talked to my bigoted Republican sister in a deep South state about Palin. [View All]

She does not understand McCain's decision to choose Palin, citing McCain's age and Palin's lack of qualifications to step into the Presidency. She is not considering voting for Obama (he's black, you know), but says she may write in Ron Paul. (BTW, she hates Hillary.) At least it takes away a McCain vote - sadly not in a State that is in play. However, if there are many other Republican women like her in swing states, her example may provide anecdotal evidence that McCain's selection of Palin will backfire for lots of people who would have otherwise voted for him.
