If she's pro-choice, repukes will stay home. If she's anti-choice, she won't get dem. women.

The Palin pick can only hurt McCondo.

1. Palin is anti-choice and anti-gay marriage (eom)

[Barack_America]

2. She's pro-life, but she also has a 4 month old child at home...

Not to mention a formal investigation against her for corruption.

This would be an odd pick.

Palin is strongly pro-life and belongs to Feminists for Life. She opposes same-sex marriage, but she has stated that she has gay friends and is receptive to gay and lesbian concerns about discrimination.<8> While the previous administration did not implement same-sex benefits, Palin complied with a state Supreme Court order and signed them into law.

She supported a democratic advisory vote from the public on whether there should be a constitutional amendment on the matter.Alaska was one of the first U.S. states to pass a constitutional ban on gay marriage, in 1998, along with Hawaii.

Palin's first veto was used to block legislation that would have barred the state from granting benefits to gay state employees and their partners. In effect, her veto granted State of Alaska benefits to same-sex couples. The veto occurred after Palin consulted with Alaska's attorney general on the constitutionality of the legislation.
