Two years ago, John McCain transformed Sarah Palin overnight from an obscure first-term Alaska governor into a national celebrity when he picked her as his vice presidential running mate.
Now Palin is repaying the favor, putting her prestige on the line in an effort to help the four-term Arizona senator overcome his toughest re-election challenge ever.
The two campaigned together Friday for the first time since they lost the presidential race in 2008.
At the first of two rallies this weekend, Palin pumped up Tea Partiers, invoking the cause of the first Tea Party in 1773.
"Remember it was the Freedom Fighters and those who protested tyranny and big government," she said. "And that's what we're doing today."
"And when you think about that first Tea Party, shoot, some may claim that John was there, at the first Tea Party," she said with a laugh, poking fun at McCain's age. McCain, who is 73, grinned widely beside her.

The vitriol is getting so deep, we're going to have to call Roto Rooter!
Yeah, we all know who's being dishonest.
So you say I am a liar because I didn’t see the orignal comment? STick it!!!!!
Glory to God and His Son, Jesus Christ.
There was another bad one too - something about leaving money on the dresser. Onyx called the poster out on that I recall.
Yep, I agree the vitriol is reaching unhealthy levels.
She also like baiting people and calling them liars for other posters comments.
Apparently all the Palintes must have missed Greta’s interview with McCain and Palin Friday night. It was a disgusting lovefest.
Care to quantify that “loss of massive support” with real figures?
You need to be told the same thing that JimRob told the recently banned BobJ:
To: Bob J
I love Palins conservatism and patriotism! She may very well support McCain out of loyalty and I have no problem with that. And I have no problem with whom she supports with her PAC. There is nothing written that says she has to do everything (or anything at all) according to JIM.
Sarah is unabashedly pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Liberty, pro-family, pro-America, pro-constitution, pro-gun, pro-limited government and so am I. And shes wildly popular among the God-loving, Liberty-loving folks with whom I choose to associate. In short, shes a refreshing breath of clean fresh air in an otherwise putrid failure of a RINO infested party.
She represents my interests better than any other viable wannabe at this point and if she decides to run, she will have my undivided support!!
Romney, the draft-dodging, Big Government, lying statist political whore can KMA!!
And your picture does say a 1,000 words, but Bob, unfortunately theyre all about YOU and political whores like you and the results and likely outcome of your slavish, cultish RINOism!!
So you can shove your picture and your RINOs where the sun dont shine.
Sarah has more guts, talent, ability, patriotism, and sheer determination and love for America and our God-given Liberty than you and Romney and a thousand other RINOS will ever have!
Its been more than obvious for several years that our pro-Life & Liberty Free Republic has become an embarrassment for you, so why the hell dont you just take a fricken hike already!!
Shove it, pal.
GET THE HELL OFF FR if you dont like it, but whatever you do quit your damn whining and pestering good conservative FReepers about your hatred for Sarah Palin!! Its beyond sickening.

LOL.
The whole quote does nothing to defend you. You declared Palin as the enemy. Now deal with the consequences.
You obviously don't know a real Conservative when one walks up to you and tries to shake some sense into you.
Avoiding the question I see.
I suspect the real shift will be noticeable just after the Easter break when the Senate and House vote on Amnesty. You can bet that McAmnesty will side with the Democrats on this one as will Collins, Snowe and Graham.
But if you insist on a direct assessment, just look at the current shift here on this forum among real Conservatives. I have seen many former Palin supporters change their opinion of her. I am one of them.
Now I suggest that you respect your elders here. Any taunts, name calling, etc, will go against you quite rapidly. Keep you discussion respectful, logical and civil.
To answer the question better, I will advocate a Forum Poll to this effect and clear up any further argument.
Including the owner of this site...
Many on this thread and others would do well to realize this. But they won't, not until the iron fist finally comes down on them from upon high.
Yep, sure looks that way...
Sorry - too unscientific for me. Same goes for a Forum poll but if it helps you confirm your assumptions then go for it.
By the way attempts at patronisation and veiled threats don’t do you any credit.
For the undecided....
Be sure to sit on the front pew. You need all the preaching you can stand.
