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.
To Sarah's Amazing List.

Tells us everything we need to know, right there.
McCain vs. Obama..
Either way, the Deep State gets their man in the White House.
The clot thickens...
I have a McCain Palin cap, it took me over an hour to remove the McCain stitching, now it is a Palin cap,yeah.
I agree and truly believe he should have stepped down when he was diagnosed but guess him continuing is to be expected given his ego.
Sorry to hear of your MS, FRiend.
“McCain is currently at home in Arizona where he is receiving treatment for brain cancer”
Hope is resting comfortably with a self regulated epidural morphine/ fentanyl pump.
And Jaz, if Sarah is Lurking t'night...
Don't worry Sarah FR & CTH love you and the fam, and if ya showed up @ a our house we'd all go get some steaks, & cold beer in a hurry from the store crank up the grill and sit a spell and have fun.
That other guy, well the disease is talking, and he'll be out of his pain at sometime, and will all be ok...
“He made several propaganda films while other POWs were brave patriots.”
While I detest the man, in this modern era of politics, respectfully you don’t have a clue what you are talking about.
McCain was subjected to a whole nuther level of torture.
If you were in subjected to the same, you would have sucked their d!cks, all of them, just to make it go away.
Scumbag.
I think he regrets it because she made the race closer than was planned. Scared him.
McCain is a curse upon this earth and not to be taken seriously.
.
The laugh is that brain cancer is one of the most easily defeated cancers with natural therapy, but McPain is too arrogant to trust it.
.
Amen to that, us too!
I voted for you, Sarah Palin, nobody else!
Honey, I wouldn’t take it personally.
Consider the source. McCain is evil. Without you he was nothing and he is still nothing.
Well its nothing new for the democrats, ie John McCain.
If he had selected someone else for his VP he would have lost by an even larger margin. Sarah Palin is the only thing that energized the conservative base while Mclame continued to stumble and miss step and did nothing but fumble everything. He should have let Sarah do the tough work and he just stay home.
“While I detest the man, in this modern era of politics, respectfully you don’t have a clue what you are talking about.”
I agree. What he has done since returning from Vietnam makes him both a traitor and an evil man. But he did OK in the face of severe torture in Vietnam.
They say you can’t judge a book by its cover. You can’t always judge it by the first few chapters, either. But in McCain’s book of life, it looks like he just gets worse and worse with time. If he’d died in Vietnam, he’d have died with honor. But the rest of his life has covered him in shame.
Without Palin, McCain would have gotten slaughtered, instead of
just beaten.
” 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...’ “
I bet McCain’s ghost writer is a Bush or somebody close to the Bushes.
