But Palin didn’t bring in more votes than 0bama.
So OK, McCain is a bigger loser than Palin.
But she’s still a loser.
And she would be a loser once again if she ran against 0bama again.
What part of “10 million votes less than 0bama” do you not understand?
So what if it would have been 12 million votes less without her?
It’s still 10 MILLION VOTES SHORT.
-10,000,000 isn’t enough to win by even Al Gore’s math.
4,761,043 votes, not 10 million. Remember, every additional vote for McCain is one less vote for Obama.
She was a loser if she had any political aspirations beyond Gov. of Alaska the second she signed on with McCain. Witness the treatment she received from him and the other progressive Republicans ever since. But she did save both him and the Republican party from the well deserved beating they were going to get from rigging McCain as the nominee.
Why on earth do you think he chose her? Because he liked her politics? LOL! She brought him votes from his own party that he could NEVER dream of with anyone else he might have chosen to put on the ticket, not to mention actual crowds of people who came to see her, NOT HIM! Most presidential nominees are careful to choose someone who will not outshine the nominee. McCain, to save himself from the WORST beating in modern times, chose someone with whom he could play 2nd fiddle and it has bruised his very large ego IMO.
And what part of SHE didn't run against Obama, McMain did! don't you understand?
This time arounds going to be a whole different ballgame. Obama's newness and smooth-talkin' jive is not going to be so easy to slip past people 4 years into the 'plan'. We will have more tangible things to use as proof. The country will also have more time to get to know Palin and she wont be hampered by having to play second fiddle to a barely passible candidate.
