Yes, withholding an endorsement is one of the few things that Mister McCain has done FOR his party.
McCain said she cried when her father chose Sarah Palin as his vice-presidential running mate in 2008: “My initial reaction was, ‘Who the hell is Sarah Palin?’ Like everybody else.”
But this fearful establishment elitist RINO will be “endorsing” furiously behind the scenes. Take it to the bank. He sees the hand-writing on the wall.
“...the most striking section of the [up-coming Palin] movie comes in the final chapter entitled, “From Here I Can See November.” The quote comes from Palin’s speech in April in Madison, Wisconsin, a moment, Bannon says, that he believes will go down in history as pivotal for the Republican Party and in American history.
In the speech, Palin goes after the GOP establishment with a fury. “I’ll take on the GOP establishment. What more can they say about us, you know?” she rails. “Game on!””
So far, cities and regions featuring “The Undefeated” include Dallas, Oklahoma City, Orlando, Atlanta, Orange County, Calif., Phoenix, Houston, Indianapolis and Kansas City.

The movie will premiere in Iowa on June 28 or 29
Nationally, the film’s release will be July 15 – the same day that “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II” hits the big screen.
The Palin movie will play exclusively at AMC Theatres, says a news release from CRC Public Relations.
The movie follows Palin’s rise from mayor of Wasilla to governor and then vice presidential nominee. It painstakingly explains her decision to quit the governor’s office after half a term – a potential sticking point with voters – because dozens of mostly frivolous ethics complaints were bankrupting her family and costing the state millions of dollars to investigate.
But, the most striking section of the movie comes in the final chapter entitled, “From Here I Can See November.” The quote comes from Palin’s speech in April in Madison, Wisconsin, a moment, Bannon says, that he believes will go down in history as pivotal for the Republican Party and in American history. In the speech, Palin goes after the GOP establishment with a fury. “I’ll take on the GOP establishment. What more can they say about us, you know?” she rails. “Game on!” ( Is Palin running for President? A set of improbable coincidences.)
Those comments are followed by Andrew Breitbart, a conservative publisher and commentator, who calls Republican leaders “eunuchs” and questions their manhood; photos of John Boehner and Mitch McConnell are overlaid. “The Republican establishment understands that she’s an existential threat not only to [President] Obama, but to them,” Breitbart says. “These Washington men who do not have the courage the way Sarah Palin does.” In fact, rarely is Barack Obama mentioned in the film: it’s all about Palin taking down the Republican establishment and leading a “revolution,” Reagan-style, to overhaul the Party.
Mark Levin, conservative radio talk show host and former chief-of-staff to Ed Meese in the Reagan Administration, makes the case that Palin is the Ronald Reagan on this generation. Like Reagan, Palin is mocked and called “dumb,” Levin says, and like him, she is “an outsider trying to fight for change.” And in a subtle dig at the frontrunner, Levin’s comments that only Palin excites the base and can draw crowds of 30,000+ are overlaid with pictures of her speaking to an adoring audience during the 2008 campaign with John McCain and Mitt Romney standing behind her.
With a Democrat Party now fully committed to statism and a GOP establishment that all too often embraces a slow-stepped form of compromise that ultimately gets us to the same place more slowly, Bannon’s film is every bit a story about America’s larger political future, than it is biopic of one former Governor and Vice Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin.

Sure makes my day....like I was so worried about what this RINO had to say. Won’t have to listen to another rendition of “my friends”....barf.
I’m sure all the candidates are hoping he doesn’t endorse them! Captain Queeg’s endorsement would be the kiss of death, like Algore’s endorsement on the commie liberal side.
Good. I fear he’d back Palin just as a courtesy. He’s the kiss of death.
I love some of the feedback comments on that website. Appears FR isn’t that much out of stream with the rest of the world.
Juan will probably be too busy in Wisconsin campaigning for his great friend Russ Feingold.
Thanks for the info!
Gee, I was hoping he WOULD endorse someone so I know who to avoid.
You’re welcome!
He’s waiting for the democrat primary so he can endorse obama.

Notice he said in the primaries. When someone is nominated, he will jump right in with both feet. He can’t stand not being on tv.
>>Maybe his daughter Meghan McCain will endorse someone.<<
Let me end the suspense: Huntsman.
Maybe this will good for Palin, since McCain’s endorsement probably wouldn’t help—but neither would his endorsing someone else be particularly useful either.
Of course not. This way, he can get around endorsing Sarah and be loved by the media. But the real problem for Juan is... nobody cares what he does anymore.
Hey John! Your dear friend Ted Kennedy has assumed room temperature, so now there is NOBODY who cares squat about what you think!
A gutsy move by the Maverick.
