CBS correspondent Tracy Smith visited with Governor Sarah Palin at her home in Wasilla, Alaska.
CBS’s Tracy Smith began her interview in a harsh fashion, asking Palin if she felt "like a loser" in the aftermath of the 2008 presidential election. The Governor didn’t hedge her response, "Well sure, you either win or you lose. It’s like dang, I wish I could have added more, contributed more positively. Maybe there was no chance that we were going to win anyway."
Smith pressed her assault, "Do you feel like you’re to blame for the loss in 2008, cause people do blame you." Palin was readily willing to accept her share of the responsibility, but also inferred that Senator John McCain bore some part of the loss, "It takes a team to win, so it takes a team to lose. I was part of a team that came in second, out of two .. It’s semantics okay, words matter, you either win or you lose. We lost. That makes you not a winner", qualifying her response by adding, "at that time."

BUT, I will try anyway.
Here is the Direct Link to CBS' Video and Article Sarah Palin: I am a voice for those without.
I gather this was only an Interview so no direct articles on the CBS website.
Though in this Interview CBS showed what true hacks they are, worthy of Soviet Pravda.
CBS would not address a Democrat in this manner.
Continuing the meme that Palin is the one who lost it for McCain in 2008.
Couldn’t be farther from the truth. Sarah was the clothespin many of us needed on our noses to vote for Juan hoping he’d keel over at the innauguration party.
Dumb ass meme. Palin added fifteen points to McCain’s ratings. The loss was his alone.
Sarah’s ONLY problem was her running mate. I’d still vote for her in a heartbeat.
I have never understood the liberal reaction to Sarah Palin.
Sarah Palin has it all, according to the liberal feminist criteria for women’s achievement. She has it all, in terms of having her family life, a wonderful relationship with her husband, and having risen up to the top levels of her chosen career field.
Sarah Palin took on an incumbent governor of her own party to be elected governor of Alaska in the first place. And she did it on her own, not because she was married to a husband who was in politics.
By the liberal feminists own criteria, Sarah Palin should be an icon of today’s modern career woman, who has it all. She did not have to choose between family life and a career.
And why the liberal chortling and shame over her daughter having a baby out of wedlock?? Liberals do not ascribe any shame or negative thinking to that, because liberals want to be seen as non-judgemental about a woman who gets pregnant without a husband. So why were they so judgemental about Sarah’s daughter????
I think that if Sarah Palin were liberal, based on her life and achievements, she would be celebrated by the liberals as a woman who has it all.
The left hates Sarah Palin for one reason and one reason only..because she is PRO LIFE..she had Trig even though she knew he would be born with Down Syndrome, leftists abort their babies just for being conceived. The left doesn’t consider a pro life woman to be a woman or a human being for that matter. That is why they hate her, they see Trig and they see the babies that they aborted
Sarah should have smacked her upside the head! Why does she continue to bother libs so much? She’s a mom, a private citizen, a hard-working woman and yet they will not leave her alone. Luckily, she has a strong family network. Not everyone who falls afoul of the media is that lucky.
However, Bernie Sanders reminds less of one of my Nutty Uncles and more like the Heavens's Gate Leader Marshall Applewhite.
Being Crazy off your Gourd means little if no one follows you.
But every lefty I come into contact with fall over themselves with Sanders, he is the perfect reflections of the Left, They are All Mini East German Walter Ulbrichts at Heart.
People will Sell you their Souls if it gets them Something For Free.
Liberalism is just not rational. If Liberals were rational, they would not be liberals.
It has been her Family that has been a Blessing From G-d in these times of true evil that has been thrown at her.
I find it very inspiring!
Excellent observation and synopsis. Well said. Thanks for posting that.
Good point.
So as I suspected, the liberals do not apply their criteria for a successful life for women to someone who is not liberal.
The problem with Palin was she wasn’t Hillary, and the people, well some of the people, want Hillary in the White House...
Personally, I think the ‘old hag’ needs to be in Prison and for a lot of other reasons than what she did to kill 4 Americans, but that’s a start....
You don’t want me to go off on Hillary, let me tell you that...!!!
I absolutely agree the left is all about abortion.
Distinctly remember some stupid reporter during Clinton’s impeachment who said she’d get on kneepads to service Bill because he was for “a woman’s right to choose”.
That took the cake for as bad as it gets....although since then it’s even worse.
You’re welcome. Just my observations about this.
Since Sarah is opposed to Socialism, she is the enemy.
The Issue is the not the Issue, the Issue is, The Revolution.
That's it, details don't matter.
We have talked for Ages on here F.R. about this issue, I remember back in 2008 the Liberals where spewing the "Get Back in teh Kitchen!!!!" misogyny at Sarah, when they are all about the War on Women B.S.
The fact is they have no standards or morals, whatever advances their agenda is permitted.
Yes I remember that too. I think it was some woman from the National Organization for Women who said she would service Bill Clinton.
With one statement, that woman completely trivialized what are supposedly serious issues about sexual harrassment and related behaviors towards women by powerful men.
The Democrat party feels they own the Female and Black/Minority vote. When someone from that group becomes a Republican (especially in a Presidential race) they attack.
That would be Nina Burleigh.
excerpt:
July 10, 1998
Updated: July 16, 1998
“I’d be happy to give him [oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal.”
Those were the enlightening words uttered by former Time contributor and White House correspondent Nina Burleigh in an interview in Mirabella magazine, as reported by Howard Kurtz in a Washington Post Article. However, it was learned on 07/16/98 that her comment was a little different from that. Nina Burleigh has now filled in what word she really used in the spot the Post bracketed and revealed her next sentence to Kurtz, that he did not share with readers.
Her full quote: “I would be happy to give him a blowjob just to thank him for keeping abortion legal. I think American women should be lining up with their presidential kneepads on to show their gratitude for keeping the theocracy off our backs.....
