McCain Staffers: Palin Didn't Know Africa was a Continent (barf alert)
Fox News

Posted on 11/05/2008 4:22:16 PM PST by rintense

According to Carl Cameron on Fox, McCain staffers have opened up about the rift between McCain and Palin, saying Palin was only a 'hail Mary' choice who didn't know who the members of NAFTA are and though Africa was just a country, not a continent. Staffers also allege Palin threw numerous temper tantrums and refused coaching before her Katie Couric interview.

Does anyone believe this CRAP! As I predicted, McCain is tossing Palin under the bus and blaming her for his loss.

Palin is the reason I voted for McCain.

Not McCain...the guy who lost it for him...the miserable failure of a campaign manager, Steve Schmidt. (rhymes with...)

EVERYONE:

PLEASE POST NAMES OF McCAIN CAMPAIGN STAFF WHO ARE TRYING TO SLANDER, LIBEL, SLUR, SMEAR, AND DENEGRATE SARAH PALIN.

LET US "KNOW THEIR NAMES."

Rumors have sprung up that they are Romney backers (which would seem thematic, considering their smear campaign against Mike Huckabee and John McCain). Is there verification?

Who?

I don’t believe it for a second. They’re making excuses.

He would have gotten significantly fewer votes had he not nominated her.

Why would he be trashing her like this? Just pride?

Former Romney staffers who joined the McCain campaign.
They see Palin as Mitt’s biggest obstacle to 2012.

I am praying for a light at the end of this long, dark tunnel. That light will be the RINO Republicans, like McCain, will die off quickly and a new conservative wave will take over the party

McCain staffers are Dems that derailed the Republican presidential campaign.

Now now Mac, I thought you were above this. Trying to delfect blame so you can go back to ‘my friends’ in the Senate?

McCain proved that running from the center,Democrats lite, to attract moderates was a miserable failure. Deal with it.

If someone can provide me with all the names of the McCain staffers I'll see if I can squeeze in some Internet based briefing material on them ~ kind of a diversion from my analysis of the weakest least known Democrat Senators, but the kind of stuff I've just read in the lead peace suggests that McCain had RINOs close to him ~ and we can't have that anymore.

The RINO have got to go!

I just saw this. I don't know what's worse the campaign staff spreading this garbage or the fact that Fox is happily reporting it.

Queer Carl also hinted that ‘Bashing Palin’ is going to be a miniseries on Fox. More stories about what a b!tch she is to unravel in the coming days.

These rumors are coming from the lunatics on the left.

They are trying to cause trouble. Stop giving them traction.

The McCain staff had little to do with Palin and were not involved in “coaching” her to the degree being alluded to.

Fiction!!!

If a person is too cowardly to even give their name when they say stuff like this, they are probably liars. I don’t believe them.

I don’t take anything like this seriously. Fox is silly to even bother with it.

Someone is trying to destroy her for 2012 and it’s a Republican. Probably someone lining up with another campaign like Romney’s.

It’s not McCain. I was listening to Hannity today and Sarah said that’s complete BS. They want you to think that. But Repubs (convservatives) say that she BOOSTED his ticket. McCain isn’t blaming Sarah.

I can’t believe some of you are believing the media! (even if it is Fox News).
