Geraldine Ferraro on Palin
Helping or Hurting?

Ms Ferraro, 73, told The Times: “I had been hoping I wouldn’t be the last,” even though – as a lifelong Democrat – “it would be astounding if I did not end up voting for the Barack Obama-Joe Biden ticket.”

1. OMG, is she finally becoming a Democrat again?
Ferraro could still redeem herself IMO, but it would require a lot of back tracking, and apologizing.

I loved her for so many years, I'm really sad that I dislike her so immensely now.

Come on back Geraldine, you'll be welcome.

5. Good for Gerry
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 11:10 PM by eleny
My god, what else could she possibly be thinking.

I hope she can bring others along with her.

Welcome back, Gerry. It's the most important general election vote of our lives.

8. This is probably good for the PUMA-types to hear since I think some of them are assuming she's for
their cause.

10. She sounded like she was in earlier interviews
She refused to tell NPR who she was voting for and praised Palin.

Looks like she's finally come to her senses.
