Two years ago, John McCain transformed Sarah Palin overnight from an obscure first-term Alaska governor into a national celebrity when he picked her as his vice presidential running mate.
Now Palin is repaying the favor, putting her prestige on the line in an effort to help the four-term Arizona senator overcome his toughest re-election challenge ever.
The two campaigned together Friday for the first time since they lost the presidential race in 2008.
At the first of two rallies this weekend, Palin pumped up Tea Partiers, invoking the cause of the first Tea Party in 1773.
"Remember it was the Freedom Fighters and those who protested tyranny and big government," she said. "And that's what we're doing today."
"And when you think about that first Tea Party, shoot, some may claim that John was there, at the first Tea Party," she said with a laugh, poking fun at McCain's age. McCain, who is 73, grinned widely beside her.

“Stephen you would last one day in politics, I would lasts half that long. Let use give the professionals their due.”
I wouldn’t last an hour. Calling Travis unintelligent is weakening your posts. Pick another target, for your own good.
“It is always interesting when you direct a post at one person and their tag-team answers the post. I am pretty sure, in fact, I am positive the fly post was directed at McGee.”
Boy, you sure blew my arguments all to hell with this post.
LOL!
So....if you didn’t vote for McCain I will assume you either voted for Obama or you didn’t vote for anyone who had a chance.....
Especially the “voted for someone who did not have a chance”...code words for supporting a LIBERAL
Another “brilliant” RINO comeback.
Keep it up, I haven’t laughed like this in months!
Actually, Old Man was a complement. I am sorry that I honored you with the destination that I honor my father. You are not an old man, you are an old pansy. My Dady could kick your ass. Thing is, you are probably the same age, so I will not bother you with my Dady can kick your Dady’s ass.
Oh, there is one redeeming caveat, he can probably kick my ass too.
Ok macho man. State for all who are reading who got your vote in the last presidential election. I voted for McCain, under duress as it was. You man enough to tell?
I was under dressed too. I awakened late and I ran out the door. The ladies asked me, Do you want a bun with that Wiener?
A month ago this place was flooded with Palin supporters. They sure are quiet now.
Of course YOU would - MEDIA PAWN!
Too CLUELESS to do anything else.
I know, they are all eating Catfish on the Bayou.
You’re killin me!
What’s the difference between John McCain and Sarah Palin?
Lipstick
Probably working or out at a rally - doing something positive and not sitting behind a screen trashing conservative Sarah.
None of the Liberals you voted for.....
I hope not; I need your support.
You sound like an ObamaBot! Same lingo/same mindset.
See, that's one of beautiful things about FR. It's a "public" forum. In case you are not aware of what that means - it means everyone can read your posts.
It also means that people can join in and call out posts that, well, in your case, reveal who you are.
Hey, "newfreep" Meghan's awake again.
These are positive winners. They speak clearly, have no labels and are extremely logical.
(You might have to look them up, I'm sure you don't have a clue who they are or what they stand for.)
Exactly!
Everyone wants to shoot at Sarah for endorsing McCain but they don’t attack the other big names who also endorsed him.
Oh, and the elephant in the room is J. D. Hayworth. That man may claim Tea Party platforms but he is no conservative. He is a crook who has ties that run deep with corruption. He is fooling everyone and apparently they are dumb enough to fall for it.
At least with McCain, we know who he is good, bad and ugly. He will always be a federalist and vote against big government and waste to the best of his abilities. Being that we are in an economic crisis, that counts for a lot.
I would go after Lindsey Graham before I would worry about McCain. Oh and Romney just may well rip apart this country due to his own self-interest. I have no faith in a man that will do anything and say anything to get what he wants. Romney was never a conservative and is not one now.
Conservatives need to learn to pick their battles and fighting against Palin isn’t one of them.
It isn’t the liberals tearing America apart, it is the infighting amongst the conservatives that can’t seem to see the big picture.
