I told Palin's advisors that she must distance herself from McCain, especially his position on amnesty. He is toxic to any future political ambitions she may have. They said they would take her down to the border to get briefed on the issue. But that is not the real issue. Amnesty is the isssue.
Palin is going to be placed on the spot in AZ when she campaigns for McCain. The media there will not let her get away with imprecise and ambiguous language on the issue. Hayworth and Simcox will be drawing the line between them and McCain on this issue. If Palin supports McCain on amnesty, she has shot herself in the foot.
I have a second home in Scottsdale. A number of us are planning to go out there to help JD against the "Amnesty King" as McCain is referred to in the immigration movement. McCain must be defeated. He is very vulnerable. He was the only top tier candidate of either party who failed to win his/her home state with 50% or more of the vote in the primary. The 2010 senate primary is closed to Reps only. McCain is in the fight of his political life and he could care less if he needs to sacrifice Palin to win.
