Thanks to all the revisionist history being spewed by the MSM, the truth about Palin in the '08 election is being lost. She is the only reason many of us ended up voting for the Progressive father of McCain Fiengold. The GOP had a serious shot at winning that election if it were not for the weak McLame and his incompetent bumbling during the economic crisis.

Sarah Palin is the only reason I voted in the 08 presidential race.

All polls given to us gratis are intended to further the agenda of the people paying for it.

Stop paying attention to these manipulative propaganda pieces.

Our local GOP HQ (Westmoreland County) had a surplus of lawn signs and a shortage of volunteers until Sarah Palin joined the ticket. Once she did, they had plenty of volunteers and a shortage of lawn signs. I gave one guy mine because his home was in a higher traffic location.

McCain didn't even bother to show up and he carried our county with 58%. Indeed, the same county which even Fritz Mondale still managed to win in Reagan's 1984 landslide election.

Despite the premise of “Game Change” - that Sarah Palin cost John McCain the 2008 presidential election

John McCain is the reason Sarah Palin lost the VP bid....
The only reason my wife and I voted for McCain was because of Palin. If she had not been on the ticket we would have exercised our franchise to sit out.

"Game Change" is a 100% Tom Hanks production.

I always knew he was a slimeball, but now I know just how slimey.

McCain cost McCain the election.

I wonder if McCain still thinks America has nothing to fear from an 0bama Presidency.

The gasp the audience let out after he said that was the death gasp of his Presidential aspirations.

McCain would have fared far worse without her on the ticket.

I also don’t think this movie will be one that people care to watch.

Mainly because who wants to be reminded of what a loser Juan is?

In answer to the headline, NEITHER.

I believe that Palin’s addition to the ticket was a net plus for McLame.

I have some moderate friends here in CA that were all set to vote for McCain (they didn’t like Obama), but they reconsidered when Palin was added to the ticket. Apparently, they bought the media narrative about her.

I suppose there were probably others like that, too.

But I am certain that there were far more people like me that recoiled at the thought of having to vote for McLame until he picked Palin. That is when I became genuinely excited.

In an ideal world, if Sarah Palin was to announce in the next five minutes she was throwing her hat in, within TEN minutes she would be leading the polls and there would be no looking back.

PALIN/WEST. UNBEATABLE.

Weak bumbling??

That was a dole dive.
Mitty is another rigged fight.


The facts are the R party has been compromised by the commie manifesto agenda.

Long time Clintonista Trump has climbed in bed with Mitt. Possibly his best choice for Veep. A Clinton agent. When one side controls both parties, we only have one party. The Ruling Party.


Time for TEA!

Right after her astounding convention speech - the best I have EVER heard - I went to my local (Beaverton, Oregon) McCain campaign office to volunteer and was told they were suddenly overwhelmed with volunteers after Sarah’s speech and would try to fit me in. Unfortunately I never did hear from them.

McCain consistently held that lead until Sept. 15

And what happened September 14th? Lehman Brothers collapses and sets off the financial crisis. Take a look at McCain's Intrade numbers and bump them up against the DJIA. Almost a perfect correlation.

I ONLY voted in the 2008 election because if Sarah Palin, otherwise I would have stayed home. She was the only thing exciting about that campaign. McCain was an utter bore, when he said to that woman at a campaign event “You don’t have to be afraid of an Obama Presidency” I wouldn’t have blamed Sarah had she told McCain to shove it! The way I see it, John McCain cost Sarah Palin the election..its HIS fault and the idiots he put around him that she is not in the White House right now

I voted FOR Palin. McRino just happened to be on the same ticket.

All one had to do was to witness one of her rallys. That alone would tell you how wrong they are about her costing McCain the election. However, in essence, she did do that, because people were voting for her and not McCain. She stole the election from Mc Cain.
