Unpredictable Stupid Women

The popular beach song "Yes, the Women are Smarter" just isn't true. Women are just as likely as men to be stupid. Half of all women are of below average intelligence. Hell, a good quarter of them are downright feebleminded. J Sidney McCain is banking on this.

The problem for McCain is that stupid women who vote might vote for reasons that a smart person, or even an average one, might not even consider. Feminists are generally a good deal smarter than nonfeminists, so they aren't going to vote for a ticket with a gender traitor like Palin on it just because she has a vagina. Hillary Clinton supporters, except the racist ones, will not be impressed by the selection of an anti-choice, nutzoid creationist with boobs who referred to Clinton as a "whiner". So McCain is left with women who also happen to be dumbasses.

Will the female dumbasserate come out for a woman just because she's a woman? Maybe. But they might just decide they don't like her because she wears glasses. She hunts, so she might be a lesbian or a tad too unladlylike. Maybe they won't like her clothes. Or they'll think she's too good looking, or not good looking enough, or all full of herself, or not full enough. We're talking wild card here. They might compare her to Mrs Biden or Mrs O'Bama or think that she's Cindy McCain's sister wife or some such thing.

Palin is a bone to the christianist nutzoid base, but they were already going to vote for him anyway. Christianist nutzoid women are already a big part of the dumbasserate. About half of them are going to balk at a woman's being VP instead of at home scrubbing the skidmarks out of her husband's briefs. This could go either way with the dumbasserate.
