The Defenders of Wildlife ad will sway lots of middle ground women AWAY from the republican ticket--
Edited on Fri Sep-12-08 12:11 PM by blondeatlast
and DoW knows that I'm willing to bet.

That Palin supports it will creep out a LOT of women who might otherwise vote republican. It's instinctual; goes right to the base. I've grown up around hunters, including women, and they see that type of hunting as cowardly and sadistic and are frankly disguted by it.

5. I agree. After sending it out to all my friends, all of the replies to
the email were extremely negative towards Palin. No one I know will vote for this woman because of this. Most said if you're cruel to animals like this, you're just plain cruel.

11. NO Palin
I agree. They are just now finding that children and adults that Enjoy killing animals are more likely to become criminals and even kill humans. Yep killing a Moose and dressing it out in the field should be credentials enough to be Vice President of Our America?????????????

PS I am not against actually hunters that go in the woods to shot to kill on the first bullet. Actually care about the animal and would not kill a pregnant animal or one with babies. The meat is then put on their table to feed their family. This is the correct way to hunt and follows with the Native Americans that only took what they needed to survive.

6. THIS is an issue to get those voters. Telling her stance on aerial shooting...
already lost them one vote.

Even if these people don't vote Obama, it'll stop them from voting altogether.

10. NO Palin
I am a woman and I am appalled at the killing of those beautiful wild animals for the sport of it. Don't tell me of how they are stopping disease or any other freakin thing. It is all about money people and theirso called Murder Sports. I say leave the wild animals alone and I am Hoping and Praying that ****Mean Spirited Woman**** does not get the Vice President seat. She is against everything that is sacred to me and my family.

12. I agree.
Many of the women giddy about her nomination are excited because they think she's just like them. This ad will show a side of her most of them haven't seen yet.

14. Suburban soccer moms will be repelled and disgusted..
most people have no idea what kind of person Sarah Palin really is. She is NOT mainstream. She is an extremist who does not share the same values with most of America.
