I couldn’t stand McCain but there was no way I was voting for a marxist! When McCain picked Palin, it gave me a good excuse to vote for the ticket. Geezzz think how bad he would have been beaten had he not picked Sarah!
Well, now that the media's favorite republican has lost, you can well bet that the media (and McCain's staff) will be blaming Governor Palin for the loss.
Frankly, I wonder if a lot of the surprise in the media isn't because nobody thought that even with the full weight of the media behind Obama, McCain did as well as he did. I'm sure that most in the media thought McCain would have done worse than Mondale.
But look for the reports that state what a great job McCain did, and it it weren't for those bad, mean-old conservatives (like Governor Palin), McCain might have pulled it off. If only McCain would have nominated Lieberman...

My husband said if we had Romney as our candidate, we would have won.
