Question is, were they offset by Hillary supporters who would have found McCain acceptable?
Really?
Hillary’s Democrat supporters in 2008 voted for Obama, because they didn’t like Palin as McCain’s running mate?
Then I recall many comments here on Free Republic in those days, in which many said they were more enthusiastic about McCain, specifically because she was his running mate, and was a strong conservative.
You forget how bitter they were because of the shenanigans Obama’s team pulled during the campaign.
Yes we were all excited about her. I even volunteered for the campaign. Cant begin to tell you the names I was called while trying to drum up the vote for McCain/Palin, not only on here but over the phone. It was brutal.
Then she was lawfared out of the governor’s office and eventually disappeared. Was not the fighter I expected. She did a reality show. Didnt hear much about her...appearance at CPAC, divorce, occasional bar fight. Yes I feel duped.
She has been mostly absent from the political scene. Dont know what role she could play in a President Trump administration.
I voted for Palin, not McStain.
