Palin's the No. 1 draw for women at Pennsylvania event
By ERIKA BOLSTAD

For the women attending a campaign event in Lancaster County, Pa., Sarah Palin might as well be at the top of the Republican ticket.

"I like the way she's going to bring Washington down to earth," said Erin Gilsbach, 30, who drove from Allentown with her sister, husband and two daughters to hear the Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential nominee speak here Tuesday. "Everyone talks about it, but I get the feeling she's going to do it."

(snip) "I was really undecided, but I think she (Palin) has swayed me," said Susan Engle, a 42-year-old registered Democrat from Lancaster. "I look at her and I see a normal, everyday woman. Her problems are the problems of a lot of families."When asked about Palin's level of experience, with less than two years as governor of Alaska, men and women both shrug and point to Obama. The Democratic presidential candidate has no executive experience and is a first-term U.S. senator, countered Mary Louise Boszkowski of Valley Forge.

1. There are those who will vote for her because they like her. Personality contest.

I'm not sure how we counteract that short of hitting Mary Louise over the head with a hammer.
