RE:”

Maybe they should run together as a team again.

I think Palin is done running for office. She’d be the first to tell you to get behind Ted Cruz.

Geezer McPain may face a primary challenge from either Congressman Salmon or Schweikert. Major fail if she endorses him again.

Heh, Sen. McCain made two newsworthy statements in a couple days that most Freepers can agree with? What going on? Maybe the Sun is about to go Supernova or something...
(Ok, ok, I know the Sun is presently not in a state where it can go supernova anytime soon, but that is sort of my point.)
