He cost Mrs. Palin the vice-presidency. Even fools can be allowed to die in peace, but they should not strike at their betters in their final days.
At this point I think she regrets it too.
Evite or Facebook announcement?
Things had been looking bad for years prior to 2008. After Bush 43 was re-elected, conservatives pinned their hopes on George Allen of Virginia, but he quickly flamed out. Then their choice was Fred Thompson, but he had no fire in the belly. In desperation, many of us switched to Romney, but he promptly went bye-bye. So McCain, who even at that time was heartily hated by the GOP's conservative wing, sewed up the nomination virtually without a fight.
I was in the same boat as you. I wasn't impressed with any of the candidates, Trump included. It wasn't until I started listening to him, and learning that he wasn't afraid of fighting back, wasn't afraid of saying what I'd wished past Republican candidates had said. The man has actually has a backbone, and a set of MAGA balls, and he loves this country. And I'm so glad I finally got to vote and not have to hold my nose.
Maybe because he is dying and feels that he can reveal his true, utterly putrid self.
Probably not as many regrets as Sarah has for associating with him.
He has regrets about Palin? People don’t vote for Vice President. They vote for president.
Let’s be real here.
McCain was horrible during the debates, up against an opponent who was going to get a huge black turnout and the housing crisis hit. Plus he stopped campaigning for a while ... during ... the campaign.
McCain was gonna lose no matter what. The question at the time was by how much was he going to lose by?
I suspect she regrets it too..
For the first time in decades, with Donald J. Trump, we didn’t have the GOPE “It’s My Turn Candidate!” And that is why the GOPE is so against him. He ruined their “ongoing plan” to be the “loyal opposition party!” The pay is the same and you can pontificate about what you “would do” if only you were the majority party, but never have to actually do it. I mean if you want to see how the GOPE really operates, all you have to do is look at their deceit when it came to the repeal of Obamacare.
Just so you know, Senator, I only voted for you because Sarah Palin.
I'm thinking McLame wanted Lieberman/Loserman because he figured he'd be able to bully him. Joe has a very wishy-washy personality, and could easily be ruled by McLame. Sarah, on the other hand has a very strong personality, and I think McLame knew he wouldn't be able to intimidate her like he could Lieberman. McLame could have run with Jesus as his VP choice, and he still would have lost to Bath House Barry. McLame is not a leader or a giver...he's a taker.
There was a candidate that would have been a great President and would have secured our borders.
But the Bush League Republicans would not allow that.
George Allen, Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson were blockers for McCain. He had already been promised it was his turn and he was the perfect Designated Loser for the Kenyanesian Usurper.
The RNC crowded the field to make sure conservatives did not coalesce around Duncan Hunter.
And I regret voting for you, John. Oh wait, I didn’t! I voted for Sarah! And also because the Imposter from Mombasa presented a clear and present danger to America.
And I’m confident Sarah is not happy either knowing that she had an old bitter petty small man as the lead on the ticket. Sarah was the best thing on that ticket as evidenced by the liberals hating her...
I regret voting for John McRino. We really had no choice in 2008.
Sara Palin had a lot of potential to be Pres or VP if she'd had a few more years in the spotlight before being chosen as McCain's VP. His sick expectations for her in the campaign did a lot of damage to her potential.
If he'd let Sara be Sara, would he have won?
BACKSTORY Lieberman is a pathological liar---who thought nothing of climbing on the backs of the unborn to power himself into office.
He surfaced as a candidate for Weicker's seat.....but the calculated Lieberman saw a huge bloc of pro-life votes pro-abort Weicker could not hope to get.
So Liar Lieb met with the Bishop and pro-lifers and swore he was pro-life and would vote that way.
He was elected----and no sooner was he in office, he vote voted for partial birth abortion SIX times.
And when the Senate was voting to oust the impeached Clinton, the liar hemmed and hawed and grieved about Clintons sex deeds.....BUT he ended up voting NOT to oust Clinton.
