Your post is not relevant to the perception that people were given, including his Primary opponent JD Hayworth. Also, McCain’s own comments regarding his position illustrate McCain not supporting amnesty.
Steinhauser reports that over the three days she spent with the McCain campaign, the most commonly asked question was why he supported amnesty for illegal aliens.
McCain’s answer…“I never supported amnesty.”
So, given this, Palin simply stating that she “supported McCain’s position during the campaign, does not circumvent her own position of “I don’t support amnesty”.
Do you seriously think McCain would admit he supports amnesty? Seriously? He plays the same word games that you do. He changed his position on securing the border first, but did not change his position on supporting a path to citizenship. Hayworth knows this, as do Conservatives who aren’t blind.
