You’re joking right? It amazes me how you Palin groupies simply gloss over the fact that she campaigned for, endorsed and flew to Arizona to support McCain. I mean you guys passionately hate McCain but magically dismiss Palin’s endorsement of him over a Tea Party candidate. I don’t get it.

That 'Tea Party'candidate she rejected in favor of McCain publicly stated that he held no ill feelings for Sarah, because he knew why she endorsed McCain. She would have been a real ingrate NOT to have endorsed the man who brought her to the national stage.

If the opponent was OK with it, why shouldn't everyone else be?

It's probably because "we get it!" And, as you so readily admit, you don't.

To put it simply: Palin owed McCain a huge political debt -- because, if not for McCain, she would've had no meaningful political capital. She re-paid it...and no longer owes him squat. Even J.D. Hayworth understood it.

I wonder who’s going to be left standing on election day following the expected 2016 FR purge of those who dare not subscribe to the groupthink?

A. I’m not a Palin groupie.

B. Everyone makes mistakes, including Palin. There is no candidate I would agree with 100% of the time. Palin has supported, and made a winning difference for, many Tea Party candidates.

C. I’m still hoping for someone to come out of the woodwork that is better than what the current field looks like. I have issues with all the current crop of potential candidates. But come November 2016, if my choice is between Hilary (or any liberal/progressive/dem) and Palin, my vote will go to Palin. If it’s between Hilary (or any liberal/progressive/dem) and almost any reasonable GOP candidate, my vote will go to the GOP candidate. If the GOP choice is liberal light (again), I may vote 3d party or stay home for the first time in my life.

D. You don’t win friends and converts to your views when you start with the name-calling (groupie).
