People like John McCain and others who have been part of the self-absorbed, navel-gazing and corrupt Washington environment for a quarter century no doubt resent someone not "of them." But it is indeed odd when Sarah Palin, a bright, shining light for conservatives remains the prime target of the existing machine, while Mark Sanford and other hypocritical liars are serenaded as getting a raw deal by the very public daughter of a defacto leader of the party.
For some reason, Meghan McCain, writing in The Daily Beast, seems to think adulterous politicians, like South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford, should be forgiven and can still do a darn good job representing their constituents. Why? Because lying, cheating and betraying the ones closest to you should not at all be held against you nor should it make people presume you might betray complete strangers known as "constituents." While you use tax payer money to indulge in your cheating. And while it exposes you to blackmail and other sundry stuff. Not at all. No Sirree. Because, you see, marriage can be "complicated." Gee, I wonder where she gets these ideas?
Now to John McCain's other people who just can't seem to stop maligning Sarah Palin. A woman who was chosen by them, a woman who single-handedly made the John McCain campaign relevant and viable. And what do they do in return? Continue their own backstabbing jihad. Why? Maybe because she doesn't fit the scenario noted above by Meghan "Deep Thoughts" McCain? The more likely scenario, of course, is those in charge of the Worst Campaign in History want someone else to blame.

I’m a Californian, and if Iowa and the other early primary states pull on us this time what they did in 2008, I’m not going to be very forgiving.
Who gives the stench of a Rat’s crotch what McCain and coconspiritors think.
Not if I can help it.
McCain could do the GOP a great service by shutting his mouth.
Juan needs to be primaried. And it will need to be done from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure.
I’d like to send McCain a bill for all those hours I spent volunteering to get Sarah elected. Maybe he could dock his sleezy daughter’s allowance to help offset the expenses.
If that happens, Sarah has to run as an independent. Ditching that albatross known as the GOP would be the best thing in the world. F*** all of the progressive Republicans.
McPain & his group are part of the DC bottom feeders.
Would he sign tax-and-trade?
Would he sign the earmarks (er, stimulus) bills?
Would he take over GM the same way?
...
I'm sure McCain would be different than Obama, but by how much? In what areas would he be willing to stand up to the liberal press?
..
Hillary is a much more attuned, more patient and more capable socialist than Obama. Would she have been a more dangerous person if elected as president?
I don’t think Hillary would have been - too much baggage and hatred.
Obama walked in, and trashed the rule of law, and nobody can seem to slow him down.
Could hillary have done that?
I doubt it.
“In what areas would he be willing to stand up to the liberal press?”
++++++++++++++
I get your point, but damn (excuse my French) the liberal press - we need to attack them and overwhelm them. The MSM cannot die soon enough. 1400 more layoffs at Gannett today!
John, let others serve, it is time to enjoy retirement - far away from the press and even farther from DC.
Indeed. My memory serves me correctly. I'm still smarting from Dole, Juan McCain and some guy who called himself a "compassionate conservative".
Not if we all coalesce around Palin. There is more of us than them.
Megn McCain camp??
LOL
It continues to amaze me how much someone with good character offends someone without.
If we do it's because it won't matter anyway. The party puts up someone like any of them, it will be because we are having an Iranian sham election. Which is a damn good possibility if ACORN's involvement in the census goes on as planned.
I predict the real possibility of armband wearing ACORN "poll watchers" in all the major cities. Anyone here recall the Detroit polling places where registered Republicans were not allowed to enter until after serious legal force in the form of Pubbie lawyers arrived? Just the beginning......
