OTOH, Lieberman would have solidified the Muzzie vote for Obama. After all, it’s been said that the reason why so many Muslims voted for Bush over Gore was because the latter had a Jew for his VP candidate.

#166: "I regret that McCain’s dad picked his mom. "

Paraphrasing Lee Marvin:

"The best part of John McCain ran down his mother's leg."

This is nonsense, respectfully.

Lieberman was a Kennedy liberal who had been manhandled by Dick Cheney in the 2000 debate. His nomination would have led to a walkout on the Convention floor, probably engineered by the very Bushies who were quietly assisting the Obama Campaign.

Palin was the right choice, and is wise to remain silent during McCain’s passing.

Without Palin, McQuisling would have lost 49 states.

That is true as well.

The Jewish-Muslim tensions in the Democratic Party would have opened.

Jewish voters would have sided with McCain. It would have made a big difference in NY, NJ, FL, GA.

You regret it, do you, John?

I'll bet your buddy Bill Kristol regrets it not at all, since you and Sarah losing the White House to Ubummer is just one more in a long string of that neoson's sabotaging what used to be the Republican Party.

Kristol, the Never-Trumper who never met a war he would send his own offspring to fight but doesn't mind if thousands of other families have to bury their sons and daughters sent to die for his causes (not for their country, obviously), has hankered for a McCain presidency since the Reagan years.

He has about nothing in common with Sarah Palin. He only wanted her in the VP slot to solidify the religious conservative vote so his warmongering friend John McCain would get elected and then send bombs and bodies to Iran, Syria and Upper Begonia as intermediate steps to conquering the whole GD world.

Sarah Palin was used and abused in the '08 election, and after. John McShame facilitated it; Bill Kristol walked away from it, as he always does. His losing streak is second only to Karl Rove's in terms of throwing good dollars at bad candidates.

And McCain was certainly a bad candidate. He would have made an even worse president, with our without Sarah Palin. He takes advice only from his family, who act as his echo chamber, living in fear of his bad temper.

Sarah is better off not having to defend that old senile "war hero."

John McCain was not a failure. As a Soros’s stooge, McCain did his job perfectly.

I do too, as he would have lost by an even larger margin then he did.

True that. I hoped Cain would croak en-Able-ing Palin. Cain killed Palins chance.

Without Palin on the ticket, McCain probably would have lost not only 3%+ more of the popular vote, but lost Montana and Missouri too.

McCain has absolutely ZERO idea how DEAD things were in the days before he picked Palin...I mean NO volunteers, little money from the grassroots.

So many leaders in the GOP and fools on the coasts that just have NO IDEA how the elections work at the ground level among actual voters.

Utter fools or deliberate globalists, probably a combo of both.
