So let me get this straight McCain, she was qualified to be the Vice President of the United States, but you won’t endorse her in 4 years to run for President, Ok John, actually I am kinda grateful that he did not endorse her, his endorsement is like the kiss of death, Sarah needs to distance herself from that RINO
Exactly. At this point, being endorsed by McCain is not a positive.
The real issue is McCain’s email list, fundraisers, field people, contacts in NH/SC/IA, etc...
Mitt already has his own people and staff and fundraisers, So does Huck.
If McCain would hand over much of his organization to her, that would be much more of a help than any endorsement. Kerry actually helped Obama out by doing the same thing for him.
At this point though 2012 is so far away. I expect we’ll get a much better idea two years from now. If the economy recovers and the natl security/terrorism front is ok and Obama looks unbeatable, I doubt Palin or Jindal or Sanford or Palwnety or any other young Gov will run a worthless quest to lose big a la Dole in 96.
The party will give Mitt or Huck, most likely Mitt, his turn as the sacrificial lamb, and plan for 2016 like they did with W for 2000.
If, OTOH, the economy gets worse or Obama resembles Carter II, I think you see everyone jump in and it could get very interesting.
McCaub would have gotten at least 48-49% if the economy had stayed as it was on 9/15 so things are not as bad they seem. The total economic collapse and McCain’s inexplicable behavior from 9/22-9/26 along with his lacklsuter debate performaces skewed the vote totals in the end by at least 2-3 pts I believe.

He most likely wants to endorse Schwarzenegger. After all if McCain and Obama could run, Schwarzennegger can too! It does not matter any more if the President is a “natural born” citizen. The Constitution doesn’t matter to any of them anyway. :(
