It goes without saying we don’t all agree on all political issues. For instance, I shall keep pushing to open ANWR, I oppose letting illegal aliens cut in line and receive American benefits via “immigration reform,” and I oppose any Congressional action that allows President Obama to incur more U.S. debt. During this time of dangerous lawlessness in the executive branch, those who agree on stopping the intended transformation of our country had better unite to fight. So at this time, it's perplexing to see Senator McCain’s good efforts to uncover the Obama agenda being ignored and perhaps even hindered now by those wanting to censure the Arizona Senator. Despite our differences on some other issues, there is no questioning Senator McCain’s dedication to national security in spite of the White House’s agenda.Couple of things.
1.) IIRC, this is the first time Governor Palin has staked out her differences with Senator McCain. In past writings, she's only spoken about their common beliefs.
2.) She's trying to keep everyone's eye on the target, President Obama. There's nothing to be gained by ostracizing McCain at this time, especially if he's attacking the Administration's Benghazi debacle.
All resources should be focused on getting as many conservative elected in November as humanly possible.

Yes, on the first point, I think so -- can't remember her specifying amnesty, ANWR, and "any Congressional action that allows Obama to incur more U.S. Debt" as being among her differences with McCain, but I could be wrong.
One might also note that further up, she credits McCain for having carried part of our message of opposition to today’s “fundamental transformation” of America directly to the problem: President Obama and Harry Reid’s far left agenda. (emphasis mine)
On the second point, maybe Palin is just practicing what she preaches, We live in a time of diminishing virtues because of societal influence towards total self-centeredness. If she was self-centered, she'd treat McCain like a political liability she should avoid for her own political interests. She's not, so she doesn't. She's loyal and she's playing for conservatism to win, not "not lose."
