Would ANYONE here agree to do this for a running mate whose aides savaged her the way they did?
Undeserved loyalty, no less.
Hmmm... I’m not sure I agree with Sarah on this one. And I’m not even talking about how the McCain camp treated her.
Isn’t there a more conservative candidate from Arizona she could campaign for?
As soon as he wins reelection he’ll go back to wishy-washy progressive McCain, reaching across the aisle to his Democrat friends.
bad move
He’s using her. Wait till after he gets reelected and the treatment she will get.
class and loyalty brought down George Bush, and the rest of us in the process
Dear SARAH PALIN:
McCain, “my friend”, needs to ride off into the sunset of luxury beer heiress property management and cut conservative America a RINO break. He looks like something from Mdm Tussauds and acts like he’s on thorazine. Narcissists are destroying America’s faith in our leadership, please don’t grandstand for this one.
I am Silverleaf and I support this message.
This is a wise decision. We all know that McCain is not a conservative, but loyalty is a highly valued quality. I respect her decision and believe it will help her in the long run.
Class and loyalty aside, I question her judgement backing the RINO who is (”in Arizona for Senator John McCain, who faces a challenge from the right”)the challenger from the right? That’s who she should be stumping for.
..he doesn't reach across, he bends over
I also can't see getting up on a stump with him and lauding his conservative values. You only damage your own credibility.
Please Sarah, not McKennedy.
Besides the fact that he’s an idiot, a closet democrat, and completely inept, I guess that he’s not too smelly......
I'm looking for some independence and action to reduce the impact of government on the people's freedom. McCain does not represent those values, as far as I'm concerned.
At this point, her announcement makes no difference in my opinion of her - I'll wait and see how much BS she spouts (following the candidate's lead), and use that information to adjust my opinion.
Republicans are like abused spouses.
Face it, they ain’t going to change.
“This is a wise decision. We all know that McCain is not a conservative, but loyalty is a highly valued quality. I respect her decision and believe it will help her in the long run.”
Bull. Like Obama, Sarah is no Messiah. Nothing is gained by walking lock step with here especially when she moves away from the values we thought she held.
McCain is a disgrace. Do I really need to run through the laundry list of horrible positions he’s taken? One word. Amnesty.
This is a big mistake for Sarah and the more an more “Washington” or polished she becomes the worse for her and her support.
She needs to maintain her grassroots, real, honest appeal.
All red meat all the time. Her biggest impact beyond her rousing convention speech was her uttering the phrase “Death Panels”
That’s what we need from her. What I’ve seen from her lately (on Fox News and now this) has been a disappointment.
IMO, she’s making a mistake...in supporting McCain.
Sarah starts to raise money for GOP and thus builds a group of GOP candidates that are inclined to be loyal to her and not to the GOP machine.
Money makers like Sarah are able to become “Kingmaker” after a fashion and then capitalize on that political favor when she comes into office.
Let her support McCain, if it wasn’t for him, she would still be the governor of Alaska and out of the headlines. Its more of a, thank you John, support. She owes him that for choosing her and bringing her to the front page for all to see.
I do not believe it and will give her the benefit of the doubt. If she supports that pro-amnesty RINO then she is just another RINO. I am holding off until she announces it.
Very bad move. And it will look even worse if J. D. Hayworth challenges Juan. Then we'd see Sarah campaigning against a real conservative and for a backstabbing, pro-amnesty RINO that much of the nation wants to see retired in November.
I predict J. D., if he declares, will attract even more out-of-state, online contributions than Scott Brown.
In a statement set to appear on her Facebook page, Palin promises to campaign "FOR the people and AGAINST politics as usual."
Pssst.....Hey Sarah, I love you to death, but John McCain and Rick Perry are POLITICS AS USUAL.......
wtf? ping
