The McCain/Palin ticket got the fewest votes of any presidential ticket since 2000.
That smells like a loser to me.
You can’t blame McCain.

If Palin was more popular than 0bama, more people would have voted for her ticket than his.
End of story.

If she hadn’t been hand-picked by McCain to be his successor, Palin would not have the support Choir she does.
You are all being played for fools by John McCain.

The RNC tried really hard to create a Sarah Palin mythology, and they failed.
The reason she doesn’t have support now among them is because of her embarrassing performance.
The woman can’t speak and is shockingly unknowledgeable. Trying to pretend otherwise is intellectually dishonest, and you’re not even fooling yourself.

The majority of Americans aren’t going to vote for someone who inspires so little confidence in her leadership qualities as she does. She just don’t got it.

And she’s not worth the uphill battle and inevitable defeat that comes with trying to push her towards higher office.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Oh, yes I can. He ran the campaign, and the poll numbers went up when he picked Sarah and down when he went for the stimulus.

Boy are you in la-la land. Once again, nobody got to vote for Sarah as President. The choice was McCain or Obama. Personal popularity aside, nobody votes for the VP slot if they think the P slot would be handled by a boob.

The RNC tried? BS. The RNC wouldn't know a good thing if it gave them an orgasm. The PR disaster of the clothing bit was their idea, trying to gild the lily.

What was shockingly stupid was to let Sarah walk into the lions den of those antagonistic interviewers. She hasn't made any of the unforced errors of Obama (57 states) or Biden (too many to recount), and Obama and Biden never had to deal with such an interview. Too bad McCain wasn't bright enough to stick with Fox News, the channel folks actually watch. And it's the Dems who watch Fox who might have been convincable, not the Dems who watch ABC/NBC/CBS.

Her few gaffes have been retold continually, while Obama's and Bidens are ignored.

“The woman can’t speak and is shockingly unknowledgeable.”

False, you are now lying about facts in order to support your criticism. Your fear that the R’s might nominate an intellectual lightweight (in your view) has cost you your credibility.

BTW, I too wish Sarah was more eloquent and a little less “folksy”. She always seems to be in a hurry and that makes her look amateurish, IMO. However, she represents the citizenry, the people, unlike any politician I have ever witnessed.

You’re a frickin idiot.

The only reason McCain didn’t lose by 30 pts was Palin.

Palin was so popular she sucked all the air out of McCain’s campaign. McCain and Romney (the other RINO in waiting) have been attacking her since 7:00 pm on election night.

You are offering NOTHING but divisiveness. I smell a troll.

We get it. You don’t like Palin as a potential nominee and have a litany of generalities as to why. You have shared them on thread after thread.

Please support your candidate and give it a rest.

You can even contrast your candidate with Palin, none would object to that. But this relentless trolling for Palin posts and hitting one the minute it is posted with the same claims over and over again is causing me, for one, to doubt your sincerity as a poster.

Find an article to post. Make a point.
