So, do you think maybe the problem with the McCain campaign might have been the caliber of the hired help? It sounds as if he hired a passel of weasels to run his campaign and hers, and this is the result. They ran against a communist with no resume, no experience, no past, no nothing, and they lost. How on earth do you manage to do that?

I guess this is what you get for being both wildly popular with your party’s base and being a REAL maverick enough to take on the establishment - even when It’s your own party.

I’m thinking they want her to stay in Alaska less she disrupts their cushy little apple carts.

Without NAMES of these “anonymous sources”,

I say they are Obama PLANTS and have no credibility.

Remember the story that had Karl Rove lining up a phonebank to spread false stories about McCain having a black "love child"?

I suppose everyone thinks that's true, but the evidence is that the Democrats did that.

Now we have "McCain aides" telling BS stories to the leftwingtards in the press.

How about Democrats telling those stories.

They even did this stuff to each other in the primaries.

Difficult to believe a guy into the down-low lifestyle would deal in salicious rumors about possible opponents but there you have it.

I say fire all of the McCain staff. They can go work for the rats.

I think the source is coming from the Democratic side which means this is nothing more than rubbish.

IT’S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT PALIN IS BEING NEGATED BY THE MODERATE REPUBLICAN FACTION TO ABORT A 2012 PRESIDENTIAL BID.

I am an old man...I raised my kids and a couple more. I know good people. Sarah is good people and I would stand with her hubby to protect that family.

Seems they would rather have Romney or some such rather than Palin. ;-)

Well, I thought that the bit of information, that a person on the campaign use to work for Katie Couric, brought much clarity into the problems of the campaign-—and what happened to the Couric interview.

The “aide” sniped that Palin refused to be coached by this woman who had worked for Couric, and that is why the interview went so poorly...

I would say that the interview went so poorly, because these aides, are uppity, arrogant bigots; who can not stand regular, moral, down to earth folks. And since Sarah dared to refuse their prep help, they sought revenge. Their need to prove their own personal superiority outweighed their desire to help their candidate.

The McCain campaign “Victory” team was full of losers. The perfect McCain types where they try to suck up to the enemy, then repeatedly get their butts burned.

Rick Davis
Nicole Wallace
Steve Schmidt
Kevin Madden

Until the Republican electorate understands these people are not interested in the ideals of any conservative faction of the party and only interested in their careers, we will continue to get waxed.

It’s time to out them and show them the door.

I believe in God, Divine justice and the Golden Rule, sometimes referred to as "karma" and thus, I have to believe that none of this will escape consequences.

Say what you will about Sarah Palin and her family, but I see very few people who walk the talk and I believe she is one of those rare few, all of it, from what she say on the podium to what she hears in Church or reads in the Bible. All of it. She has taken abuse that quite honestly, I would not have handled half as well as she has and she did it with a smile. Todd Palin married well and we almost were lucky enough to have her as our V.P.

I sent money to the campaign and despite my pledge to never vote for McCain again, I cast my vote for her and her running mate. She has my support, my admiration and my respect. The people who trash her are another story all together. Sometimes you have to be other people's karma and boy howdy, these folks have some coming!

You’d have to believe that in the course of the nastiest, most intrusive campaign coverage I’ve seen on a member of a presidential ticket, the press found out about the pregnant unwed daughter within a day or two, but they didn’t find out the candidate was, pardon the expression, a miserable high-maintenance bitch with no close friends (even counting her family—I especially liked that part) until the source told them six weeks into the campaign, two weeks before the election, and they didn’t find out she was a complete airhead until, again, the source told them the day after the election.

Riiiiight.

What I found beyond the pale of believability, was that Sarah, a college graduate, who grew up in the school teacher's home, would not have the slightest grasp of geography! LOL! Who would believe that a Christian, who gives money to missions and probably gets monthly updates, wouldn't know that Africa was a continent?! That is so ridiculous, that it definitely sullies everything else these losers had to say. They are lying...flat out lying.
