Former McCain Adviser Nicolle Wallace Trashes Sarah Palin on 'The View'

Nicolle Wallace, former adviser to the McCain-Palin 2008 presidential campaign who worked with Steve Schmidt, appeared on The View on Thursday and gushed over Chris Christie, Jeb Bush, and even Bill Clinton. Predictably, however, she trashed Sarah Palin.

Wallace has tried to blame Palin for the incompetence she and the McCain team displayed during the 2008 campaign against then-Senator Barack Obama.

The program played a clip from Game Change, which has been called out for numerous lies and inaccuracies, that allowed Wallace to whack Palin as someone who had a "gap in her knowledge" about issues. She didn't mention that if there were any gaps, it was her responsibility as her chief adviser to fill them. Wallace blamed the McCain campaign's loss on Palin's interview with Katie Couric, leaving out that Wallace is Couric's friend and that the interview--which was heavily edited--took place over multiple days.

“In 2008, I voted for Sarah Palin. The other guy on her ticket was just an accessory.”

Yep. Me too.

Same here. When he selected Palin as his RM, I thought, “He must have more brains than I give him credit for!” Sadly, that was not the case.

“She probably doesn’t know the constitution is 400 years old...”

Or that we have 57 states. . .

Exactly! I want to know who hires this tool because I want nothing to do with anyone she works for.

Nicolle isn't going far enough.

She should also blame Sarah Palin for the incompetence McCain showed in the 2000 primary campaign, which he lost to George W. Bush.

Definitely not a mccain supporter but I’m having a hard time with this. How do you think that things would be worse had he been elected instead of the ØbaMessiah?

LOL!

I was just idly wondering how many full-time people that the White House has monitoring Nicole Wallace's Facebook page 24/7/365 so she doesn't kick their *ss without warning with a couple of sentences in a well-crafted post...

Nicole, you stupid mercenary cow bimbo, shut up.

You have to feel sorry for Nicole Wallace. The only thing that makes her relevant is claiming she met Sarah Palin.

“Wallace, a 1990 graduate of Miramonte High School, received a B.A. in Mass Communications from the University of California, Berkeley and a master’s degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism”

In other words, she’s the person who tells a woman who has actually served in elective office and is the Governor of a state and VP candidate, that she has “gaps in knowledge”.

Aside from her own very sparse resume, I think it’s clear Ms. Wallace has a big gap of her own...between her ears.

Nicole Wallace’s 15 minutes have long since passed.

The View is scraping the barrel bottom.

Sometimes I wish Palin would have politely declined to be McCain’s running mate. Then she would have had a full term under her belt, and could have ran in 2012.

Get with the times, Ms. Wallace. Beating up on Sarah Palin is so...2009.

In September 2011, Wallace published the sequel to Eighteen Acres, It's Classified, about a fictional presidential campaign troubled by a mentally-ill vice presidential candidate.[24] Wallace said the premise was inspired by her experience as a Senior Adviser to the McCain/Palin campaign

No friend of Sarah Palin

I wasnt saying that the country would have been worse off. I am referring to the political fortunes of the republican party. If mccain had been elected, I imagine he would have carried on his backstabbing of his fellow republicans. I think he would have been a one termer and taken the republican party down with him and the democrats would gave emerged much stronger as a result.
