John McCain may have admitted that he regrets picking Sarah Palin as his running mate in the 2008 presidential election, but according to the former Alaska governor, thats not what Sen. McCain has told me all these years.
The one-time Republican vice-presidential candidate told The Daily Mail on Thursday that she feels a perpetual gut punch every time she hears reports about McCains regrets and that having to read the news every day is not a real fun thing.
I attribute a lot of what were hearing and reading regarding McCains statements to his ghostwriter or ghostwriters, Palin said. I dont know unless I heard it from Sen. McCain myself.
She added that McCain has apologized to me repeatedly for the people who ran his campaign, adding that some of them now staff MSNBC, the newsroom there, which tells you a lot.

Sarah, consider the source and take it as a complement.
At this point, I think most accept that Mccain is just a doddering old fool, and that before this stage he was just a deep state stooge ala GHWB..
I think we can all tell, now, that Nicholle Wallace is a miserable, awful human being whose entire job on that campaign was to sabotage Palin for her friends in the MSM.
Palin’s probably had enough of politics which is thoroughly understandable in her case, but it is a shame she is not a member of Trump’s cabinet.
The ONLY reason I voted that year was for Palin.
John McCain was still destined to lose had he picked George Washington as his running mate....
John McCain. Just die. Soon. Collaborator.
Ditto. She was a jolt of new energy the GOP needed.
Nope, sorry Sarah, that’s the guy you signed up with, and many of us told you that at the time.
The ONLY reason I voted for McSh*tface instead of not voting at all was because of Sarah. She can give great speaches, McSh*tface has a hard time talking at all, since it taxes both cells of his puny brain standing up and talking at the same time.
We will not miss that Obamahole.
That’s okay Sarah, he knew all along you were far more qualified and competent than he was.
You and millions of others I’m sure, perhaps 10s of them.
Without her he would have gotten 25-30% of the vote > IMO. Instead the ticket got 45.7%. Amazing!
McCain was a douche bag and everyone knew it. He stated that nobody had anything to fear from a man who invited terrorists into the White House to consult with him, and appointed others to certain positions.
Yeah McCain, Sarah was the only redeeming aspect of that ticket. If you had won, she would have gotten the Lyndon Johnson treatment, ala John F. Kennedy too.
While I love Sarah Palin, I guess I'd ask who hired these ghostwriters? Who authorized the final draft? Who authorized the leaks? Is McCain so out of it now, and back when the ghostwriters where hired and contracted with that he, McCain, had no idea what type of people he was dealing with?
As much as I admire Palin, I'm not convinced of her rationalization. I'd like it to be true, but the evidence suggests otherwise. All we know is that one day, in this life or the next, true justice will be done.
Sarah- As a life long Republican voter, I can assure you of this:
WE VOTED FOR YOU——NOT for McCain.
We supported YOU-—NOT McCain.
Your book tells it all. You were treated very poorly by McCain & his staff.
IF the staff did things without his permission or knowledge-—that tells us even more about ‘McCain” & how astute he really is and always has been.
Yup. Tells us a lot about who mcstain really is.
She almost upset the plan for the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
Has John McCain been seen in public recently? Where do these statements come from? Who exactly is speaking on his behalf?
This reminds me a bit, of the final years of George Steinbrenner as Yankees owner. The team issued statements which supposedly came from Steinbrenner, but he was rarely seen in public in those final years. He personally did not make those statements attributed to him. We learned this after the fact.
I think the same could be happening with all these statements released on behalf of McCain recently. Nobody has seen him; nobody knows if he’s really authorizing these statements, and he clearly is not personally speaking to the media.
