Senator McCain picked Governor Palin to be his running mate and quite possibly the Vice President of the United States of America. If she had backstabbed him you’d be on here complaining that she didn’t have any loyalty and was therefore not “presidential timber” for 2012.

No, she isn’t “presidential timber” because she isn’t presidential timber.
Why is loyalty to Washington politicians more important than loyalty to America and what’s in her best interest?

The problem with McPalin and her ilk is she doesn’t understand that.
It’s all about political favors and payback for her.
From her endorsement of McCain to her endorsement of Murkowski’s opponent.
It’s all about settling her own scores.
We don’t need another politician like that.
We’ve got enough of them in Washington already.

I can see where a close race would benefit from Palin's endorsement, active or otherwise. In Mccain's case, I just do not see her dragging him over the line. It appears he had plenty of gas to get himself over, say 2:1 in advantage.

It appears he would have won regardless if she backed him or not.

He most likely would have won even if she endorsed JD.

However, if she did endorse JD, then he lost, many on this site would be refering to her as the thankless bitch.

Wrong. Most of us PRINCIPLED conservatives would have sent her a check for election to the presidency. I'm tired of backstabbers and political hacks on both sides of the isle. She had everybody's respect and support right up to the point she endorsed, and campaigned for, the most high profile RINO plaguing our party!

Do you think Palin said something to McCain, like, “Look, John, if you duck left again, I’ll take you out.”?

Hehehe!
I gotta believe that there was a conversation along these lines.
