Yes, Sarah started big and flamed out. When the financial crisis hit, she was finished as a helper to the ticket.
Not everyone is a political junkie. It will take more time for voter reaction to Ryan to show up.
As much as I like her, Sarah’s bounce was all excitement and no follow-through. I think Ryan will help the ticket more as the election approaches.
Sarah started big, and McCain blew up his own candidacy b/c he lacked intellectual courage to blame Dems for the mortgage catastrophe, and worst of all, suspended his campaign. I knew that he was finished then.
