Sen. McCain admitted on CNN that even he wouldn’t support Sarah Palin if she would run for president in 2016.

McCain offered up his standard defense of Palin, but when he was asked if he thought that she should run for president, he changed his tune. McCain said, “I think that she ought to do whatever she feels that she’d like to do. I’m very supportive of anything that she does. Obviously, Sen. Lindsey Graham is the person I’m supporting, but I wish her every success.”
McCain said that Palin could be an asset in 2016 because she still has a base of support and a degree of popularity.
John McCain’s lack of enthusiasm for a Palin candidacy was obvious. Sen. McCain will always be saddled with the legacy of unleashing the Palin plague on our body politic. McCain should never be forgiven for his reckless lack of judgement in appointing a person who not fit to be the vice president. McCain should be asked in every interview he ever gives until the day he dies why he chose Palin. He has never been held accountable for his actions in 2008.
The fact that Sen. McCain has finally bailed on Sarah Palin’s future means that even he believes that she is never running for office. John McCain still defends the invasion of Iraq, but even he isn’t buying the idea that Sarah Palin has a political future. If Palin ever would run for president, she won’t even get the endorsement of the man who chose her to be his running mate.
John McCain finally gets it, so when will the media stop pretending that there is any chance that Palin will run for president. Sarah Palin has shown no desire to do anything, but extend her fifteen minutes of fame. John McCain would rather support his mini-me in Lindsey Graham than attach himself to the burning tire fire that is Sarah Palin.
The media needs to stop pushing the myth of Sarah Palin.
McCain is the very definition of the word a&&hat.
Aw dude, you played a foolie on me! This is PoliticusUSA, the Jason-Easley crapfest where he’s so left, Karl Marx pisses him off, the damn Old School Teabagger.
Does that mean she doesn’t have to endorse him if he runs for re-election yet again?

Okay, The writer makes this sound like a bad thing. For me its a positive.
There are whole lot of voters that echo that point.
Agree. IMO. Sarah is not going to run till her family is older. She still is very young and is hiding her time

Palin saved his senate seat in his last election.
amen
Free at last.
Same reason I voted. I voted for Palin, not McLame. I still have the T-short .... have to find a way to blot out McLame’s name on it ...
Who the F cares what Juan McLame thinks?
I don't like McCrap myself and the only reason I voted for him in 2008 was because I really liked Palin. Without her, he was going to be a much biggger loser than he was with her. She was the one that made his ticket.
Palin is a patriot.
McCain is a traitor.
If and when Palin ever decides to run, she will have my vote.
I’ve never been a fan of McCain’s, but if you read what he actually says, rather than the headline, he is extremely careful not to say that he has anything against Sarah. Nor does he, in fact, say that he wouldn’t support her under any circumstances. He says that he thinks she is great, but that his first support at the moment goes to Lindsay Graham. Presumably if his girlfriend Lindsay was out of the race and Sarah was still in, it might be a different story.
Of course, most likely he puts it this way because he is afraid of offending Sarah in case he wants to run for anything again. Still, the headline is somewhat misleading—as usual.
Good luck with that.
Poor Jason has penis/gonad envy.
LOL!
That’s why his hands shake: Tardive Dyskinesia.
Bet he takes Cogentin with his Namenda.
Bless his little heart.
