“Now, it’s Personal Loyalty First - and that’s okay, but not free.”
Actually the accurate Loyalty would be Political Loyalty. The Rino McCain, fortunately, picked Palin for VP, giving her her national political opportunity.
That’s serious stuff, not some hallow personal loyalty.
The conservatives making hay of this (i don’t include the nuisance Paulistas or the Romney bots)...are either clueless about a National Political Campaign or just really with another agenda.
In my estimation, it’s personal obligation for Palin - a gesture of gratitude - the personal commitment being of greater significance and importance - not politically expedient.
McCain did not give Palin national political opportunity. She was rising regardless - McCain exploited the inevitable. To the contrary, McCain’s draft may have forced Palin on to the stage too early.
