This article is an absolute misrepresentation of what she said. Another example of how the media takes her words and puts their interpretation in as fact...she did not indicate this...she made the statement essentially that Obama indicated change and people were wanting change...the reference was that she ran on the need for change also so why didn’t she win the election and she replied she wasn’t the head of the ticket but that she didn’t mean she should have been. Actually....SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN!

Please! It was a joke - nothing more than that.

They are taking her context for a little dosey doe.

yeah that’s sounding a bit cocky if you ask me. And so far Sarah Palin is one I’ve been looking at as the most possible GOP candidate.

You obviously did not see the interview.

Hindsight is 20/20. She might be prideful, only time will tell, but she is right about this one.

So why don’t you like her? Just curious.

Since you genuinely don’t know when/how she said it, I’ll fill you in. She was asked why 0bama won. She said that it was a stressful time for the country and the people wanted a change. 0bama was a change agent. The host countered, “But you could’ve been the change agent,” to which she replied, “I wasn’t at the top of the ticket, remember?” It was truthful, accurate and moment-appropriate. If you think she could’ve handled that question better, please say how.

Pride cometh before a fall. Often.

However, McCain was in a near dead heat for last place with Mitt and Rudy in my book, out of the seven candidates on our Republican Primary ballot.

I honestly believe that only Sarah Palin on the ticket got him the turnout he did. People said they voted for that nice lady for Vice President.

I found it interesting that the opening salvo of PDS after the election was to blame her for his loss, when I know I would have been extremely tempted to just stay home had she not been on the ticket.

Had she been on top of the ticket, the election would have been a question of the First Woman President versus the First Black one. That would have pitted the Women's vote versus the white guilt liberals, and possibly broken down support for Obama along those lines.

All speculation, of course, but McCain's amnesty position hurt him, too.

Pride cometh before a fall.

That would explain why McCain failed.
