Had Palin not been picked, or declined McCain’s offer, she would had been a successful two term governor and most likely a senator from Alaska.
She did a lot for the cause and for McCain. She’s been classy in this whole matter.
But let no good deed go unpunished. When she was given the bum’s rush out of the governor’s house, the blood libel, MSM attacks, and RINO insults, she still kept fighting for us.
And to those “friends” she help elect? Where were they when Giffords was shot and the MSM called Palin a quasi co-conspirator? NOWHERE. They ran for the tall grass.
NIkki Haley? Cruz? GONZO!!!! Her only friends were a few talk show hosts and Alan Dershowitz (not to mention her rank and file supporters).
To paraphrase Obama....”you can see a direct line from Palin, the Tea Party to Trump. She played an important role which set up a future Trump candidacy. Someone had to light a spark under the conservative base and Palin did so.
