Why don't you honestly study everything else Sarah Palin has said and done, then put your question into that informed perspective?

Why can't you just answer the original question, which was:

OK, so was Sarah lying about McCain being a "real conservative", or did she really believe that he was?

No need for either one of us to 'study' anything. Just tell us how you would answer the above question. It's not difficult, is it?

Why don't you read and 'study" the article, and come back with some comments relating to it rather than trying to hijack the thread with something else.

And I gave you a perfectly reasoned answer to your question. One that most adults would understand as indicating that it's YOU who need to apply your own observational and analytical faculties to divine.

You may as well be asking why Obama is what he is, or why so many Americans voted for him. I could explain it all to you, but it would take far longer than I have the patience for in a single post on an internet forum.

If you want to participate in this discussion, then you should have the requisite analytical acuity and background knowledge to sort out the basics of what's being discussed.

It's really that simple. I'm sorry that it escapes you.
