On accusations of her going rogue during the campaign: So, as days went on, it was good, it was fine. But being quite independent, just like John McCain is also, yes, maybe there is some characterizing of me going rogue when once in a while I would say something that -- hey, I said it from the heart. I believed in going off script once in a while in some of the rallies in order to really reiterate, perhaps, something that I believed about John McCain.
Maybe it wasn't written in the script, but so what. Geez, if this is all going to be so scripted and kind of like a movie screen and we have to follow verbatim everything that somebody writes for you, I don't want any part of that. That's not who I am and that's not who John McCain is either.
So, if I went off script once in a while, I can't for the life of me remember any one time where it would have harmed him, or the ticket. So I don't regret it.

Next time: It’ll be HER script!
McCain would have lost a lot worse if not for her.
We hope.
Watch them spin this into the “palling” comments were just her “going off script.”
True, but she is going to have to dump the McCain worship as well as his amnesty plan she touted if she is going to be successful going forward.
“McCain would have lost a lot worse if not for her.”
You bet he would have! Would love to just see a Freeper vote between McCain vs Palin. Would tell quite a story as to whom everyone favors!
On what she would have changed about the way she was managed by the campaign: I would have preferred more opportunity to speak to the media more often, because there were a lot of things that I think it could have, should have said that could have, would have helped John McCain. I have such great admiration for him. I honor him. I love him. I believe that he is the best leader that we have in the nation right now, still, is John McCain. And I would have liked to have had more opportunity to be out there speaking on his behalf, of the attributes that -- that he has, because he's so humble he doesn't do that himself. He did not, I believe, have -- take enough opportunity, and that's just the way that he is, though. He's too humble. Take the opportunity to let people know the challenges that he has overcome, his ability to face adversity and overcome challenges. I would have liked more opportunity to have done that for him.
Damn straight.
I’m really hopeful she’ll come back - stronger. It’s easy to see how she can, but it might take a little while.
She can go rogue on me any time she wants.
So Do You Have a poster of Bob Barr above your bed? Looking at your posting history gives me the creeps.
Kurt - that’s your right to not like Palin - so move on!
I absolutely LOVE this woman.
You Betcha
Geeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzz
I guess you subscribe to “keep the little lady barefoot and pregnant” too.
Give me a break!!! LOOOOOOOOOL
