Palin vouches for McCain bona fides

TUCSON – In their first joint appearance since losing the 2008 presidential election, Sen. John McCain and former GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin reunited here Friday in an attempt to bolster his conservative credentials in the face of spirited primary challenge.

Revisiting many of the same lines and themes used during their presidential run, Palin told an estimated crowd of 4,000 at the Pima County Fairgounds that McCain deserved re-election to a fifth term because of his lead role in the battle against President Obama and congressional Democrats.

“When the pundits and talking heads said, conservatism, it’s dead . .. John McCain set out to put the fight back in the Republican Party,” the former Alaska governor said, citing McCain’s backing of Sen. Scott Brown in Massachusetts. “It’s an honor to stand by him now and ask that you in Arizona, for the sake of your state and the sake of our country, that you send the maverick back to the United States Senate.”

Thanks to MCCAIN-Feingold we got Dems congress 2006/2008 and Obama 2008. This gave us ObamaCare.

To the idiots making excuses for Palin and saying McCain is not so bad - you probably lost your country thanks to what McCain did. He probably stole your futures especially if your are a senior or baby boomer.

Savage played at least 12 clips tonight of McCain fawning over Obama or calling for amnesty. We are fools to fall for sickening MCcain. The Dems are laughing - they are 20 steps ahead and McCain is their trojan horse.

I completely agree with you. McCain, for all his valiant, honorable service in the military, for which this country should rightfully be grateful, is a miserable Senator and is selling out the very country he almost gave his life to defend back in Vietnam.

I am seriouisly afraid the game is over now. The fools making excuses for McCain have no earthly clue how much damage McCain Feingold caused.

They are posting all these cutesy posts and Obama and Rahm cut our throats at every move. Palin is propping up an Obama trojan horse. McCain is evil. His wife and daughter hate us. McCain has caused so much damage with his friend Graham-nesty. Palin is just as bad now and I liked her.

>>Didn’t she marry Kurt Russell?<<

Nope — Bill Hudson of “The Hudson Brothers” (man, talk about a blast from the past!) and divorced him in 1980.

On further review — she never married Kurt Russell but she slutted with him enough to produce a kid.

Nope. I’m sure she’s with Kurt Russell. They’re not married, but I’m positive about that.

I was there selling Palin 2012 buttons. They will be available in Searchlight on Saturday.

As expected, as soon as Sarah finished speaking, people headed for the exits, not all, but many (over 1,000).

McCain sold out everybody including Palin. Service means crap when
a soldier sells himself out for power and profit.

McCain can go to HELL..

It means notice how nice the media is being to McCain and Palin on their tour in print. They stopped riiping her to shreds for 5 minutes. Obama wants his trojan horse (MCCain) to get reelected.

Here is a nice story in National Review today about how McCain and Graham have helped Islamic terrorists.

i had to laugh when Sarah was talking about fiscal restraint and standing up for conservative values and that bi partisanship was not about going along with policies that go against the fiscal conservatism etc I mention first here. McCain sat next to her and I thought, “Surely then Sarah you do not want McCain!”

I think Sarah has now earned the label Maverick II. She doesn’t give a fig about what Conservatives think. She may be the only one backing MeCain, but darn it, he’s right.

LMAO

some people need to grow up. Palin is supporting a friend. Reagan always said someone who agrees with me 80% of the time is my friend. I admire her loyalty.

Liberal trolls trying to divide us. anyone who questions Palin’s support of Mccain clearly was never a fan of hers to begin with.

Or your just really stupid and don’t understand what loyalty means.
