You know it! It became painfully obvious quite early on in the campaign that she was outshining him in every aspect. He couldn't stand it, and made it clear to his henchmen that she was to be "take care of".
I remember the McCain campaign calling to see if I had turned in my ballot. I told them I had and had voted for Sarah Palin. The person on the line paused, said “Uhhhh” and I said I voted for Sarah to be VP, I hate McCain and I hope he dies (of natural causes) in office and Sarah replaces him. Otherwise I would have voted libertarian. The person then said “Uhhhhh, thanks I guess”.
I wonder how that person from the Oregon GOP thinks about McCain now?
