A woman friend of mine who was going to vote for McCain has
changed her mind and will vote for Obama because of Palin. She was a Hillary supporter. She's disgusted and insulted by McCain's VP pick. I wonder how many more like her are out there.

2. Was it an immediate decision, after Palin's "we'll finish breaking that glass ceiling" introduction
... or only once she grew to know more about Palin?

5. Popular vote boost will still help ...
... and they surely have friends & acquaintances in swing states.

6. I'm certainly glad she has come back
but I have to ask myself WTF was she even thinking about when she was saying she'd vote for McCain?

There simply are too many out there who make incredibly uninformed decisions when voting.

7. She was for HRC, but switched to McCain? And PALIN bothers her? GMAB.
