Brooke Buchanan, a McCain spokesperson, said in an email that the senator wasn’t saying Palin was “irrelevant” but was quoting others as saying she was irrelevant, and noting that despite that, they continued to attack her.

That might lead one to think McCain is relevant and a party standard bearer and leader.

Hahahahahahahahahahah!!!!!

McCain is simply mentally ill.

That’s all there is to it.

Sometimes I wonder if that old man is right in the head.

He didn’t say she was irrelevant. He was mocking Dems and newsies who call her irrelevant on the one hand and then obsess about her every move.

He said, repeatedly, that he was very proud of her.

I’m not a McCain fan by any means, but he was praising her, not insulting her.

Your college must have a tutoring program for reading comprehension. Check it out.

Not to defend McCain necessarily, but I read that to mean that in the eyes of the press, Sarah Palin is irrelevant as a “viable” politician (Ivy League Law Degree, Pro-Abortion, progressive) and yet they continue to cover her and everything about her more on a daily basis that they do Obama in a year.

Sure put quotes around “irrelevant”, that’s all. We all would sound like dopes if a transcript were made of every word we speak.

See my tagline: She might as well start looking at fabric swatches and carpet samples and pick which of the historic desks she’ll sit at in the Oval Office as far as I’m concerned.

I’m about as far from being a fan of John McCain as I could be, but I have to speak up for him, here. He was not saying Sarah Palin is irrelevant. He was mocking the media claims of her irrelevancy, while they have been attacking her nonstop.

He’s finally sticking up for her, for whatever reason. There are plenty of reasons to crap on McCain. This isn’t one of them.
