Sen. John McCain will not back Sarah Palin for president

The Daily Column ^ | 4 feb 2011

Mitt Romney saying he supports a run by Ms. Palin, noting “the more, the better.”................................... He would need her, as like, in VP? If he can get her to agree to VP, he may be golden. Ya never know, politics breeds strange bedfellows.

[ilgipper]

Let’s hope so. I am concerned about the current batch of likely candidates. Hoping to see someone unexpected jump in. Problem is that an effective candidate has to be building an organization already.

[Kent C]

Sarah looks better without that albatross around her neck anyway.

One of his better moves, imo.

[Ev Reeman]

Sure.

McCain’s too busy saying dumb things like Obama is a centrist.

What a loon. What a moron.

[nmh]

She has NO chance of winning.

Her negatives are through the roof with the MAJORITY of people. Unless you have people changing votes for her towin, there is no way she could win legitimately.

I thoroughly enjoy her sharp tongue and being mouthy with Obama but her shallowness is not what I want for a President.

[GBA]

He’s voting for obama again.

[Mr. K]

Well at least this absolves her of any further responsibility to support McLame for anything

I did not hold it against her for supporting him when he ran for re-election, it would have been ungracious of her, to say the least.

But now she can tell him to kiss her a$$!!

Romney/Palin, talk about a Mutt-and-Jeff administration.

Sadly, it seems that Sarah Palin will gladly dim her light for the sake of a RINO, and Romney is more like a RINOINO.

[demshateGod]

They were just doing what Sarah told them to do.

[wmileo]

"Mr. McCain returned from a one on one meeting with President Obama at the White House."

He does not want to do anything to get on the bad side of the POTUS!!!

How could he have been neutered if Meghan McCain is his daughter(looks just like him)?

[treetopsandroofs]

He’s a VC Ace, destroyed 5 US jets.

[texmexis best]

McCain’s star has dropped raidly since he lost to Obama and it may be that he does not wish to hurt Sarah’s chances with an endorsement. That is what it looks like to me.

[HiTech RedNeck]

All candidates are “shallow” until they actually run.

[Venturer]

People need to read this. It’s the real McCain.

Ms. Palin, who ran with Mr. McCain during the 2008 presidential campaign, likely stood to benefit the most from a potential McCain endorsement.

Not among conservatives.

[SF_Redux]

she just keeps right on recieving gifts

[GSWarrior]

That is what it looks like to me.

Or it could be that he wants to deflect the responsibility for his lackluster performance as a presidential candidate on Palin.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This frees Sarah from any further obligation to Mr. McKeating.

[Jim Noble]

McCain NEVER opposed Obama or his election.
