No kidding--what's with all the turning on Palin for being a decent person and supporting the guy who put her on the national map?
I'm not convinced Palin could or should be president--and am even more convinced she's not even going to run than ever--but sometimes we have to take off the ideological blinders and simply do the decent thing. If Palin didn't support the guy, even with their clear political differences, I'd think less of her.
McCain didn’t put her on the map voters did and their faith in her.
Get you facts straight.
Darkwolf...Neither am I convinced she’s going to run..that in itself lends me to consider who else might be on the ticket. But Hillary will run I think...if Sarah gets it and Hillary runs against her...boy won’t there be catfights!

I guess you just don’t understand the animosity that many of us have for Juan McPain, and you can bet the feeling is mutual. He epitomizes everything that is wrong with the Republican Party. So, when Sarah Palin enthusiastically supports him, it’s earth shattering. If she actually succeeds in getting him elected (she does have political capital, you know), McCain will be laughing in our faces for the next 6 years! You see, we’ve been there and done that before.
To be fair to Governor Palin, she may have foolishly promised to campaign for McPain. Perhaps we can agree to ignore her bad judgment this time? A lot of it depends on how she phrases her support. My guess is she’ll focus on the very few aspects where McPain is tolerable. However, she’s already said McJerk is the kind of leader we need in Washington, and we all know that’s BS.
