...ahhhh, or she was chosen to fire up the GOP base and breathe life into a flagging campaign, split disappointed Hillary voters from the Dems and to add a dynamic (gender) element in the face of running againt the first mixed-race presidential nominee.
Really?
You think they choose Palin so McCain could lose and then spend 4 years trashing her in hopes she would become unelectable?
I’m sorry, I’m about to go rush out and buy stock in tin foil, there’s going to be a major rush on tin foil if people are actually beginning think like that...
Palin was unknown outside of Alaska by anyone other than hardcore conservatives, and even then many of them never heard of her.
If Palin hadn’t been selected as McCain’s VP candidate she would never of had a national stage and no one would know of her right now and she would still be an almost unknown governor.
History is far from on your side with this theory, I highly doubt the party looked at her as a threat back then, probably barely knew her.
So your theory carries little to no weight, it’s a complete conspiracy theory.
Wow. Where’s my tinfoil?
OK, let’s assume this silliness is true - and some of it is, no doubt. But if the Republicans are all hell-bent on shooting themselves in the foot, then where is the up-side?
When and how do the Republicans overcome? And with whom?
Socialism needs both a Right & Left leg to march.
Predictable, you address not one of the issues I have raised.
The tin foil will be in the garbage can you will be living in as a result of your ignorance.
I don’t know if I agree with that, but I do know that MANY of McCain’s campaign aides were retreads from the Romney campaign and/or Bushies. Both those camps are hoping their man (Myth and Jeb) will someday be president, so a Palin candidacy doesn’t work for them.
The fool who wrote this needs to be back on their Thorazine!

I am sorry, but if we can’t see that we have a one party system by now we are truly hopeless.
As rants go, this one is kinda silly.
Sorry my man.
I think we need more and more to come from the private sector and run for local and state positions and continue to expose the fact that we have a one party system on Washington that would rather attack and undermine conservatives then marxist radicals.
As rants go, this one is kinda silly.
But one a week would be good entertainment value........
I’ve worked in the White House and Iowa GOP politics, FRiend. I think I know what’s going on a lot better than most people. The Ripon Republicans might as well be Democrats, and that’s what Romney, Bush and that crew are.
Agreed
Posting a really inane thread and then insulting everyone who posts a comment presents less than an overwhelming debating tactic.
I love Sarah, and some of mcpain's people were real assholes, but you need to wear a straw hat when wander out into the sunlight, that aluminum foil is baking your last two brain cells.
Sip whiskey and don't watch any news channels for a month, stay off the internet and listen to country music, it will get better.
