Sounds like she looking for a Trump replacement.

McQueeg was the designated loser. His VP pick was a winner. Just shows how incompetent he really was.

[KevinB]

Most people, like me, who voted for loser McCain were hoping he would die shortly after being sworn in so Sarah could take his job.

[Bartholomew Roberts]

I had a McCain/Palin bumper sticker on my car.

But had McCain’s name covered with black tape.

I saw many others like it in Cincinnati.

Especially after he insulted Bill Cunningham after Cunningham introduced McCain at a local rally.

Probably her husband. He is very pro life. I know very little about him just that he made a very pro life appeal on FOX one evening.

Probably why she was canned from The Piew.

Nicole Wallace mostly, I will always hold her (Wallace) in contempt for it.

George W. Bush had so polluted the GOP brand that Ronald Reagan himself couldn’t have won in 2008.

No one:

Meghan Mccain: "My Father...

[bk1000]

You could tell by the (non)enthusiasm in his stump speeches that he knew it was pointless. Obama was to win, and that was that. Palin was picked to insure his loss. Little did they know she would say out loud what do many were thinking.

[Jumper]

McCain was imposed as the GOP candidate. He was no better than a compromised democrat criminal - what do gangs have in common - why was he a member of the gang of eight - he was a gang member, oh the fricken horrors of it all.

McCain was a military man and hero who leveraged what ever POW capital he had to become a criminal whore of the worst kind, masquerading among the democrats as a member of the GOP, but caucusing with the DNC.

[Zathras]

Never trust a McCain, Bush, Clinton or Kennedy family member.
She wants in on the Political Train to riches.

[Army Air Corps]

I saw a lot of campaign signs around here that were similarly altered. I also saw some homemade signs that had slogans such as, “I am voting for Sarah and the Old Guy.”

[Engedi]

Not to mention Obama did a number on McCain with the financial crisis at end of election where McCain left campaign trail to head to the Senate and Obama continued with his campaign. It was October surprise and our party fell for it.

[smokingfrog]

Agree

A conservative woman can be treated like sh*t, and it’s okay, but don’t you dare criticize a lib female politician, because that would be misogynistic.

[capydick]

McCain told Hannity....

Is he still not a doctor?

[Fireone]

May I add a Kerry and Obama to the list?

[Jeff Vader]

Sarah tried her best to drag his sorry ass over the line, but he just wasn’t interested in winning

[Mr. K]

Palin is the ONLY reason I voted for mccain

She was very much like Trump, in Alaska.

She got rid of an expensive plane (actually sold it on eBay) and treated the budget like a budget is supposed to be treated.

[sauropod]

Yes, it has.

It wasn't just your Father's campaign workers…it was your Father, as well. Following your thought process, Megan, you should also understand that if your Father's campaign people set up Palin for failure, then you should also understand that your Father's campaign was actively setting up the failure of his own party to win the White House.
