Sarah Palin said Thursday that Sen. John McCain's (R-Ariz.) admission that he regrets picking her as his running mate in his failed 2008 presidential bid is "like a perpetual gut-punch."
The former Republican vice presidential nominee said the senator's recent remarks were "not what Sen. McCain has told me all these years, as he's apologized to me repeatedly for the people who ran his campaign," she told the Daily Mail before speaking at a pro-Trump PAC fundraiser.
In his upcoming memoir, “The Restless Wave: Good Times, Just Causes, Great Fights, and other Appreciations,” the 81-year-old senator laments not selecting former Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) as his vice presidential candidate.
McCain still gives Palin high marks for her work on his campaign.
"I attribute a lot of what we're hearing and reading regarding McCain's statements to his ghostwriter or ghostwriters," Palin told the Daily Mail, saying she would have to hear from McCain herself.
McCain is currently at home in Arizona where he is receiving treatment for brain cancer, but remains a strong voice in the GOP and the Senate where he often criticizes the Trump administration.
God bless Sarah Palin for taking the high road unlike the bitter McCain.
Sarah Ping!
A ping with regards to our beloved Sarah being betrayed yet again by Senator Judas McCain (May he burn in Hell).
Well he lost. So I guess he blames someone other than himself. Nothing new there.
I’d wear it like the Distinguished Service Cross.
Sarah, if not for you, I would never have voted for this loser.
Classy response. More than Songbird deserves.
McCain collaborated as a POW and received special treatment. He made several propaganda films while other POWs were brave patriots.
Exactly, he’s more and more like Hillary.
Sarah, don’t worry about it, McCain is a turd.
Sarah, if not for you, I would never have voted for this loser.
Ditto
Also, as the tumor takes over the brain and the oxygen supply is depleted, the patient loses the ability to interpret reality.
Although this McCain and his oxygen was depleted years ago.
“McCain is currently at home in Arizona where he is receiving treatment for brain cancer, but remains a strong voice in the GOP and the Senate where he often criticizes the Trump administration.”
Bull $%/?. His “staff” is speaking for him. If they don’t have video of him saying it, it ain’t him.
McLame doesn’t need any help to look bad, but this response by our Sarah makes him look all the worse.
Sarah is CLASS..McCain is an ASS..Sarah Palin is the ONLY reason I repeat the ONLY reason why I voted for Songbird McCain in 2008.!!
He could never say it to her face.
I suspect Sarah won’t be invited to the funeral either.
His wife will say it was ‘an oversight’.
What a scumbag. I don’t think I’ve ever heard any other candidate — Democrat or Republican — say that they regretted their vice presidential pick. Its just plain low.
Palin do not feel bad.
Please.
You ran a great race, and were what America needed.
Don’t feel bad for one moment.
Although I sure wish you would work for Donald Trump.
I’m completely series.
Sarah, if not for you, I would never have voted for this loser.

Ditto!
I do not regret voting for Palin.
I do regret voting for McLame.
