Two years ago, John McCain transformed Sarah Palin overnight from an obscure first-term Alaska governor into a national celebrity when he picked her as his vice presidential running mate.
Now Palin is repaying the favor, putting her prestige on the line in an effort to help the four-term Arizona senator overcome his toughest re-election challenge ever.
The two campaigned together Friday for the first time since they lost the presidential race in 2008.
At the first of two rallies this weekend, Palin pumped up Tea Partiers, invoking the cause of the first Tea Party in 1773.
"Remember it was the Freedom Fighters and those who protested tyranny and big government," she said. "And that's what we're doing today."
"And when you think about that first Tea Party, shoot, some may claim that John was there, at the first Tea Party," she said with a laugh, poking fun at McCain's age. McCain, who is 73, grinned widely beside her.

You will not be the one to get me off here, I promise you.
Only a COWARD like you tries to remove the competition.
No one is saying that Palin is the enemy. Just not a choice for a lot of us for president. And even fewer after this weeks McCain lovefest and Fox interview.
Don’t worry, folks who run crying to teacher whenever
someone says something they dislike are the weakest
of little pansy girls. It’s meaningless.
Thanks for putting up the good fight Ridegerunner. Just joining this thread now and I see the usual Palin haters are at their keyboards blazing away. They are however a small minority but they have such a vapid dislike and even hatred of Sarah Palin, and for no apparent reason other than believing the lies the mainstream media tells them, or from what they read on other FR post. Feeding off each others hatred. I cannot comprehend their close to insane antipathy towards her.
Me, I pray for the day Sarah Palin can see the Potomac from Her House.
Indeed and that disgusting post needs to be frequently repeated and reposted as a shining example of utter lunacy.

That was a most profound explanation why Sarah should boost an enemy like John McCain
The fact is, nobody can justify it. All you posted was drivel.
The koolaid here runs rampant.
Yes it was.
Apparently many here missed Friday’s Fox interview. Disgusting
Tancredo endorsed Romney
DeMint endorsed Romney
Hunter endorsed Huckabee
Thompson endorsed McCain
Gingrich endorsed Scozzafava
Pawlenty endorsed McCain
“This is incredible. How delusional is it to think that if I support another conservative (DeMint, Hunter, Thompson) that I am a Sarah hater. “
It is not delusional. They have no argument. We don’t hate Palin, or anyone else. They have no argument.
One thing to do is just ignore the attacks/post and let them roll off computer page. It isn’t necessary to even acknowledge the post if you so desire not to.
None of this has anything to do with Palin supporting the worst RINO in history, who is IN office, and stands to do 6 more years of harm to America. Stick to what IS, not what might have been.
You really need to watch the Friday Greta co-interview with McCain and Palin.
Sorry, the first part of your statement is a bald faced lie - it’s exactly what was said in the post - what part of this:
“I care about the USA, and Palin is now the enemy” are you having difficulty comprehending?
Defend it all you like.
“One thing to do is just ignore the attacks/post and let them roll off computer page. “
Not when they summon JimRob and the mods I won’t ignore it,. Never!
Strange isn’t it. It’s almost like they are groupies, and not trying to have sensical poltical debate.
Really? Wow, I sure don't see the libs and their MSM accomplices freaking out about them nearly as much as they do over Palin. And she's not even in office.
Try again!
You can criticize principled Conservatives all day long for dropping their support of Palin, but in the end, when blind support such as yours continues to plague the GOP, don't complain when a Democrat stays in office, or the "Republican" continues to vote with the Democrats.
