Even Sarah couldn’t drag me over the line to vote for McCain. I have never regretted it.
Because of who he was, and who he remains, I couldn’t trust the character, motives, the rhetoric, or the brains of anyone who would agree to run with the creep. But that’s just me.
I was just “done” with the Establishment with McCain.
You have to understand that the GOP-e immediately started attacking Palin when they realized who and what she was (think Nicolle Wallace & her "bestie" Perky Katie Couric: Friendship: Katie Couric & Nicolle Wallace http://www.more.com/katie-couric-nicolle-wallace)
I've been around politics for quite a while, and I've seen what happens to people and/or organizations who can make a difference that can change the status quo.
They get carpet-bombed by the Establishment - the Demopubs/Republicrats, The Royal Purple Party (Red Party + Blue Party), and the Hillary Boehner Reid McCain types. It ain't pretty.
Free Republic got it. Jim Robinson got it. Sarah Palin got it. The Tea Party got it. Prominent members of the Tea Party got it.
Get it?
