Insult or not, I do know women, who [sadly] have said for years they would vote for Hillary JUST because she was a woman - even though they disagreed on nearly every issue. I would imagine the same is true for other women, but Hillary was the only one on a national scale the last time I had that conversation.
As for McCain's age... Yeah, he's old. But DH's Stepgrandpa turned 85 last week. He runs circles around the rest of us - combined. Seriously. The man never slows down. Ever. 72 isn't as old as it used to be...
Carol [who votes on issues not gender but also knows many people who vote for whoever had the better commercial. Americans, as a whole [present company excluded I'm sure], aren't known for delving deep into issues when it comes time to make decisions on many things.]
